Various foods and drinks appear throughout MS Paint Adventures.
In Jailbreak[]
Judging by the full effectiveness of their bodily functions, Jailbreak's prisoners seem to get plenty to eat and drink. The nutrient richness of the jail's soil
may have something to do with this.
Human babies (but not children!) seem to be considered a delicacy for at least some elves. Their drink of choice, thankfully, would appear to be a much less gruesome pot of tea. Ponies, of course, love carrots.
Pumpkins start appearing in the first page of Jailbreak. They look delicious, but are best eaten in small pieces so as to fit through the mouth hole of a pumpkin helmet.
In Bard Quest[]
A “friendly butcher” ran a meat shop
in the Bard's kingdom; however the city ordinance against homosexuality barred him from selling any dildos. T-bone steaks on the other hand seemed to be in plentiful supply.
In Problem Sleuth[]
Problem Sleuth, Ace Dick and Pickle Inspector all frequently used candy for various purposes, including as ammunition for their candy weaponry
and as part of their Gambit Schema.
On the arguably healthier side, in addition to a bag of his favourite candy corn Problem Sleuth imagined a pair of steak dinners in his imaginary office. Fiend mutton is supposedly the meat of beasts, while brutesteak could be either the favoured food or literal flesh of the Kingpin's Hired Muscle.
Straddling the border between food and beverage, the jocose honey used for the Comb Rave technique was served in receptacles resembling those used for drinks. Death preferred to serve tea to his guests.
In the four kingdoms[]
Each of the races of the four kingdoms had their own preferred food. Hogs, in addition to presumably subsisting on slop, coveted the salted melons grown in the kingdom of the weasels, who preferred to eat elf eggs. To the elves, the pie baked by the clowns (the filling of which also used in the casting of some Combat Operandi, and as a weapon of its own by Demonhead Mobster Kingpin) was a delicacy. The flesh of the clowns themselves was also good enough to serve as food for Zombie Ace Dick.
In Homestuck[]
Cake[]
One of the more prominent foods in Homestuck is cake. The first instance of cake comes from John's father cooking several birthday cakes for him from Betty Crocker mixes and strewn about the house. In fact, John has to remove a cake from atop his Magic Chest, just in order to retrieve his Arms. Upon entry into the medium, such confections instead come from Nannasprite, though similarly en masse. Appropriately, Jane Crocker has also been shown fond of baking them, and prepared one for her own birthday party as well, though it was promptly thrown skyward along with the table it was residing on in a fit of rage. Meenah Peixes also likes to bake cakes, similar to her post-scratch's self's alias of Betty Crocker.
Pumpkins[]
- Main article: Pumpkin
Pumpkins have been seen as a source of food for Exiles such as Wayward Vagabond and other Carapacians such as those taken care of by Roxy Lalonde. They have also been grown by Jade Harley and Jake English though their propensity for disappearance have likely prevented any intended consumption.
Fruit[]
Apples, oranges, lemons, and limes have all been seen to have been grown by Jade Harley, though the presence of faces may lessen the likelihood that these were meant as food. Jake also has similar fruit in his possession.
Candy[]
- Main article: Candy
Canned Food[]
A large stash of canned food is found by the Wayward Vagabond. The foods found were: Beans, Mustard, Gravy, Bread, Shrimp, Asparagus, Cheese, Rice, Corn, Peas, Flour, Chestnuts, Mayo, Ham, Potatoes, and Squash. These foods were later used to build Can Town, as well as to make the Wayward Vagabond's MAYOR sash.
Doritos[]
They are featured in the game
Dave played on Bro's Xbox.
Orange Creamsicles[]
Mentioned by Terezi when being trolled by Davesprite. Like cotton candy, orange creamsicles seem to be a universal constant.
Steaks[]
Like any good omnipotent dog, Becquerel has a love for irradiated steaks that are made from Jade's Cookalizer. Caliborn and Calliope were also given a plenty supply of meat during their childhood, told to be regular cherub nutrition.
Pet treats[]
Joey Claire owned a bag of pet treats for her dog, Tesseract. It is used in a strife to distract one of the monsters out of the room and later is carried with Joey to Alternia.
Xefros's Lusus' diet is mainly based on sloth food and refuses to eat most of his owner's food, while Jude's pidgeons like crackers.
Spice[]
“A shaker full of SEASON-ALL MAGIC SPICE MIX. This doggone powder adds the taste of flavor to every bite.”
Exclusively Non-Earth[]
Grub[]
- Main article: Grub
Beefgrub, a form of Alternian insectoid livestock, is used in the making of several butcher's creations such as grubsteak, and grubloaf, a leavened dish, typically covered in a sweet, tangy mucus, and served with tuber paste, something likely similar to mashed potatoes.
Grub sauce is a grub-based condiment, often mistaken for blood and vice versa. Dave compares it to mayonnaise, stating the main differences are mayonnaise's lack of grubs and white complexion, meaning that grubsauce does in fact contain grubs, and appears a color other than white. If Karkat and Terezi's earlier confusion/denials about Kanaya's death are of any indication, as well as again when talking of Sollux's death grubsauce seems to come in a range of at least yellow to jade.
Questionable Foodstuffs[]
Mind honey is a special honey used in Alternian apiculture networks, and is known for its mental stimulation capabilities. High level psionics (such as Sollux) should be wary about what effect this may have on their powers and sanity. Sollux has been seen to blow up Aradia's hive by ingesting this substance under Vriska's mind control of his own completely not free will.
At least one Alternian has been seen eating sopor slime, basically having the exact opposite effect as the aforementioned mind honey, one of causing mental torpor. The substance is typically absorbed dermally, used for bathing in while one sleeps to prevent torturous nightmares and ease slumber, and one is taught very young by one's lusus not to ingest it. However, in cases of parental neglect, one might never learn this, and instead bake it into pies, washing it down with a bottle of Faygo.
Oblong Meat Product[]
In Hiveswap and Hiveswap Friendship Simulator, Diemen Xicali is particularly infatuated with his "oblong meat product", a type of Troll hotdog analog. The precise content of the meat is unknown to even him, however.
