LOTR food

Does anyone have any feelings/thoughts about food in the LOTR stories? I mean, I'd love to sit down to a nice second breakfast with Sam and Rosie, or be invited to a special occasion with the Master of Buckland, but I think about the other traditions, too.

For example, even though they're associated so strongly with the plains, I can't help but see some Danish influences in the rohirrim. I know Eowyn made a mean aebleskiver(no matter that PJ dissed her cooking.) But what happened to traditional Gondorian cooking when they lost Ithilien? What are the regional differences between Mirkwood and Lothlorien cooking?

Okay. Maybe I'm the only one.
