I'm very, very certain this is fettuccini pasta made with chickpea flour. Looks weird, tastes weird, has a weird texture.

When i was young i would sometimes spend a Saturday afternoon at my local round table pizza. They had a little game room with 5 or 6 arcade cabs, and it was a nice change of pace from the selection at the arcade.

Most Saturdays i had already spent half my allowance on comics and the other half was about to be fed into the games so i was not trying to buy any food.

On those days lunch was however many handsfull of bacos i could steal from the salad bar while nobody was at the register.

Best thing I ever remember about school lunches were those giant pickles I could buy sometimes in middle school and the seasoned potato wedges that were served with almost every meal in high school. I'm almost 100% sure the potato wedges were the only fresh thing we got besides fruit and they were so good that we hid them under the other food. It got to be so bad that the cash lady would almost pat us down just so she could charge us an extra fee.

I had a lot of lunches where I just got 2x servings of potato wedges and ketchup because it was better than whatever else was available.

Those square pizzas go for about $120 for 96 of them and if I had the freezer room I don't think I could resist

Truly the allure of breadtangles of pizza is a mighty one to resist

Oh, that's why the three varieties of chickpea pasta were the only types of pasta on the shelves during that one peak COVID grocery-store run.

e: Here's an Australian brand with that weird texture:

I remember this scene from the first Star Wars but I dont remember the bed of fries. Must be one of George's later edits

Profoundly dull


the depiction of food in star wars is so weird and very thread-appropriate, it's interesting how appetite is almost universally shown as a negative trait and feasts have ominous tones--jabba's gross barge buffet, the betrayal on cloud city, anakin and padme's lovely dates. eating well just isn't a part of the star wars fantasy the way it is with, like, lord of the rings or harry potter

and of course speaking of school food there's the amazing shot of the cafeteria full of clones eating from empty trays


also apparently chewbacca will just straight up eat carrion and everybody's cool with it

“Irish Nachos” because it has potato chips and not tortilla chips. Probably trying for something like this.

Well, there's a cafeteria scene in Bad Batch where all the clones have food, at least. (~23m into ep 1)

Food is a bit of a weird thing with Star Wars, because they never really did decide much about it. You have to figure a balance between familiar and alien, and really in all the movies it's only ever a background detail so it doesn't matter much. I'm not sure there even were solids in A New Hope, just the blue milk.

Mark Hamill posted:


Well, the original blue milk was what they call long life milk, which you get at camping stores because you don’t have to refrigerate it. And we were in North Africa.

So it has additives – they put blue food colouring in it – and it was really ghastly. Oily and sweet and euch! Triggered your gag reflex. But I said, “Look – if they gave me blue milk, you bet I’m going to drink it on camera, because what other chance am I going to get?” So there’s an indication that I’m an underrated actor – I gulped it and acted like I liked it without vomiting.

In Empire Strikes Back, Luke's got some rations. Seems a little weird that he has just a whole hardware box full of stuff that isn't apportioned into individual meals, but maybe that's just one more thing in this broken, run-down galaxy that isn't planned right. Maybe different species have wildly different caloric and nutrient requirements.



Yoda's curious enough about it to take a nibble, but later Luke sure loves that stew or gruel or whatever Yoda was cooking in his place. I don't think there was ever actually a shot of something being in the bowl, just they act like there's something in there.

I think there's more food in the prequels. Jar Jar tries to eat a raw hanging frog while walking through Tatooine. Other than that, there's a lot of scenes that take place around dinner tables, although the food's not in focus. I guess there's also a bit where Anakin levitates a pear.





And then I think Dave Filoni has a thing about fruit. There's a whole episode of Clone Wars that revolves around getting the striped orbs atop this cake. Doesn't really look much like food in this picture honestly.



In Rebels, there's a whole running thing with the "meilouron" melon here, that looks more realistic and plausible as a fruit.

Yeah the blue milk described was from the moisture farm scenes. The island seal creature milk in the Last Jedi probably tasted better.

You gotta buy the dye, then you gotta have people to do the dying, then people to make sure the green shade is the same through separate takes for continuity etc

Candy fruit squares on the top left, yogurt chips on the bottom right and I guess maybe supplemental vitamins next to the orange tictacs. Unless that's just more tictacs.

The rest is like bread and jerky type stuff for proteins and carbs.

Those rations look like the meal Snoopy and Woodstock "cooked" in Charlie Brown Thanksgiving.

Deep Space Nine made a very good point about food in Star Trek; it's important to a culture. Hasparat? Very spicy, despite basically being creamcheese pinwheels with green pepper. Going to the Klingon restaurant where the chef sings Klingon opera? Dinner and a show. Papa Sisko's jambalaya? It's important, culturally.
