[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 8153012, member: 52734"] This isn't something I've put much thought into in my own campaign world, other than a couple of tidbits. High elves are vegans and have some exotic supernatural foods they have access to (such as starfruits) & honey. If you want to watch an elf recoil in horror, offer them a sandwich with the crust still present, or a fruit that hasn't been peeled. Halflings have a penchant for soups, breads and pies, with a weakness for pheasant pie and stone soup. Gnomes enjoy heavily spiced food, usually at a level other races cannot tolerate. They also use a lot of mushrooms in their dishes. Their favorite drink is a very weak mint tea. For Dwarves, it's not so much what goes in as what comes out. They don't mine gems so much as gorge on heavily (sauced) meats & strong drinks and wait a few weeks for the results... Tiefling food is terribly bland and preferred to be near rotten. When away from the disproving eyes of civilization they can offset starvation by regurgitating their previous meals. Aasimaar do not need to eat. They can subsist off positive emotions around them. They often throw parties (with delicious food) for others so they can politely absorb partygoer's enjoyment to subsist themselves. Dragonborn are carnivores, and prefer their food uncooked. Meals of still-living vermin are consider delicacies. [/QUOTE]
