Would extensive descriptions of foods and feasts be welcomed in fantasy? I've been cooking a lot recently and I feel like I could sell a book that focused on the food as much as the gore.

You've got your answer right there. Why not combine the two?

Yes, Make it part novel, part memoir, part historical fiction, part non fiction, part recipe/cook book, part my diary desu

The Belly of Paris by Zola

The Odyssey is basically all feasting, so you can be sure it's /lit/ approved

Sounds good.
People love food.

Given how much the spergs splurge about GRRM's food shit, both good and bad, you're probably fine.

Sure. The target demographic are fat neckbeards, they'll enjoy reading about succulent duck roasts as they inhale hot pockets.
