Food!!!
There are many interesting mentions of food in these books. What do you think of when you consider food in Middle-Earth? Lembas, of course. What else? What's your most/least favorite Middle-Earth food, and who eats it?

Re: Food!!!
the Hobbit sure had a lot of food references--Bilbo's dreaming of his tea, etc. Now here's a riddle: What food was the most influencial in the whole story? 100 pts. to whoever guesses.

The Answer (SPOILER)
Oh, Oh, Oh!!!!!!!!!!!! The awnser to Elanor's riddle is Hobbit finger and ring!!!!!!!!!! Though as a Dwarf I prefer Beorn's cooking. (Lembas is good, but you can get tired of it. Ugghh!)

Re: The Answer (SPOILER)
Theonering.net has a whole section dedicated to fan recipes for food from Middle Earth. I think I'll print some out one of these days and make a great big ancient feast.

Re: The Answer (SPOILER)
Congratulations, Gimli--the answer was Frodo's finger and the Ring--eaten by Smeagol, they definitely were the most influencial food in the story!! Thanks for playing.

Re: The Answer (SPOILER)
Beren's hand and the Silmaril!! I still like Frodo's finger and the ring better, even though I'm sure Smeagol didn't swallow them. :O

One of Smaug's favorite foods...
"Do Virgins Taste Better?" A dragon has come to our village today. We've asked him to leave, but he won't go away. Now he's talked to our king and they worked out a deal. No homes will he burn and no crops will he steal. Now there is but one catch, we dislike it a bunch. Twice a year he invites him a virgin to lunch. Well, we've no other choice, so the deal we'll respect. But we can't help but wonder and pause to reflect. Chorus Do virgins taste better than those who are not? Are they salty, or sweeter, more juicy or what? Do you savor them slowly? Gulp them down on the spot? Do virgins taste better than those who are not? Now we'd like to be shed you, and many have tried. But no one can get through your thick scaly hide. We hope that some day, some brave knight will come by. 'Cause we can't wait around 'til you're too fat to fly. Now you have such good taste in your women for sure, They always are pretty, they always are pure. But your notion of dining, it makes us all flinch, For your favorite entree is barbecued wench. Chorus Now we've found a solution, it works out so neat, If you insist on nothing but virgins to eat. No more will our number ever grow small, We'll simply make sure there's no virgins at all! Chorus

It's prolly some weird chemical with the reverse effects of too much caffine!

That ent draught would be nice, then I could stand up to all those haughty elves at the Shire, which is a cool board.

Re: One of Smaug's favorite foods...
Ooooo! I get to torture my family with more mushroom recipes!!! And I have a legitimate reason to! (I'm the only one in my family who likes mushrooms, but we all like Tolkien)
I'd love some of that ent-draught. I'll have to come up with some sort of a recipe. |
