Whatever can be found, scavenged, or whatever was bought from the last town. Usually the wizard handles food since he can just drop any spare fire spells in an area and manage to get some sort of roasted animals or plants.
Except the alchemist, he makes his own rations which is basically a nutrient paste because he thinks regular food is poison.

Keep in mind, a lot of those images are pretty deceptive.
>Fresh meat or fish

>Fresh fruit and vegetables

Would not keep.

Any meat or fish needs to smoked, salted or preserved in some fashion.
Any fruit or vegetables need to be pickled, dried or preserved in some fashion.
Any cheese needs to hard and needs to be consumed within a day or two as soon as the rind is broken.

Bruh, that's only when we're on the field and even then when a good battle has come and gone you should break out the raptor legs and grox ribs!

It's probably being kept in a food-bag. It's okay if your food-bag smells like food.

All the other pics had some cash included. I think the crystal is supposed to be currency.

What's with the coins tho? Keeping money next to food seems rather unsanitary.

>>54014750
So when the brigands rob you and you plead to their humanity to at least let you keep your food on the road, you have a few coins over.

To hire mercenaries to go kill the brigands.

>>54014750
It's probably emergency cash, in case your gold-bag gets stolen.

A few germs are worth having the insurance that you can pay for an inn while you track down the ruffians that stole your coinpurse.

>>54014723
To be fair, the rolled oats are mostly for keeping the eggs safe.

Also, gnomes are generally predicted as a little pudgy.

>>54014805
They are usually shorter than a halfling and they are the size of an 6 year old.

When it comes to cheese, you can take a wedge and coat it in wax to sell per piece.

Some snail species get fucking huge, google giant african land snail. So yeah, I believe it's possible for some species of snails to lay a shit ton of eggs like that. And if nothing else, it's fantasy. Pic related.

Also, there are Underdark lakes. So even if those are fish eggs, they don't have to be saltwater fish eggs. Menzoberanzan (fuck me, I can never remember how to spell that shit) has a freshwater lake. The center of it has an island where they raise all of their Roth.

There is a fetish for eating yes.

>>54014171
Do oranges and chocolate even exist in Forgotten Realms? What about tomatoes and potatoes?

>>54013832
Fun fact, if you take a freshly laid egg and wash it thoroughly with plain luke warm water, then coat the entire shell in something like grease, oil, or wax, then that egg can stay fresh for an entire month without refrigeration.

>>54014951
Does that work with older eggs too?

>>54014936
>oranges
Yes, but only the bitter kind, iirc.
>tomatoes
Green ones.
>Potatoes
I believe sweet potatoes are more common, but white potatoes in the few northern lands.
>>54015383
Not especially. Shells are permeable, you have to preserve them damn quick before oxygen leaks in and starts the decomp process.

>>54016090
Thanks for answering my questions.

What about vegetables like cucumbers, zuchini, pumpkins, squash, broccoli, cauliflower?

>>54015383
Not that I know of, but a cool trick I do know is if you buy quail eggs and then get them home and put them in an incubator quick enough then they can hatch if the egg itself is still fresh enough.

This is because unlike chickens, all quail eggs are fertilized. They simply don't develop because they are refrigerated as soon as they are laid. BUT, quail embryos can survive being refrigerated for a certain amount of days before they die.

Not that guy, but I'll answer.

All of the squashes you've listed are freshest when kept as they are. You can carry them about for a few days and provided the gourd isn't damaged, all of them will probably be safe for consumption.

If you're looking to preserve them for months at a time, then my answer is that all of those can be pickled.

>>54013839
Being mountain paople, i always figured that dwarves use to eat a lot of cheese and other dairy products

>>54016921
They probably eat a lot of meat too, like rabbit, deer, elk, moose, wild birds such as geese and ducks, squirrels, possums, fish. All of that stuff can be smoked up or salted to preserve it.

They probably eat a lot of wild greens too. Like wild onions, wild carrots, sage, lilac, lavender, cat tail roots, acorns, maple seeds, mushrooms, etc.

>>54016559
Oh, I wasn't asking if they can be preserved, I was asking if they exist in canon in Forgotten Realms. Because I'm pretty certain most of those are indigenous to the Americas. So probably wouldn't fit in well with the old European theme.

But thanks for that cool info, I'll definitely remember it.

In general, if it exists in the real world, it exists in the Forgotten Realms too.

Also, people have crossed the sea to Maztica, the equivalent of the New World/Americas. So even if it isn't native, it could have been brought back over.

>>54016999
>>54020394
Basically, the Realms doesn't have a European theme. It has stuff from all over the world.

Hell, the iconic image of Elminster (or anyone else) smoking a pipe would not be possible if the setting was strictly European, as tobacco is a New World plant.

In the wagon is preserved processed meats, jarred jams, potatoes, herbs, and hard breads.

>>54021699
>got a chance to kill you
Only because modern factories used to use shit like lead and arsenic to speed up the process.

Salted meats, dried fruits, nuts, dried peas/beans, and pickled eggs. Pickled eggs until the cows come home. And the cows aint coming home any time soon, cause we killed them all and turned them into salted meats.

My guess is that there's no reason to not use vastly less energy efficient methods that involve slightly less effort on the consumer's part. Nobody wants to store eggs for two years.

>>54029402
>nobody wants to store eggs for two years

Motherfucker, I DO.

>>54029554
If you do, you do as a hobby. Nobody wants to buy their eggs two years in advance and then dig an egg dungeon to hold their eggs and wait two years to eat them as their primary method of storing eggs given the option to buy them at the store and eat them immediately. Egg storage enthusiasts, though intense, lack the purchasing power to support a natural wax based egg preservation industry.

Reb here. Off the battlefield typically we're very friendly with the yanks. Especially in smaller communities like ours, we're a bit like a large family that likes to shoot at each other. Reenactors being rude to each other over petty factional shit is something we typically leave to the WWII community.

Don't really have anything relevant to post, since I don't think I've ever actually stayed in a game long enough to get around to eating something, so I'll just post everything I have that's food-related.

I used to do volunteer work at a museum down here in North Carolina and it was always the case that you would get the weirdest and most randomly loaded questions from from reenactors. Like they where trying to start shit. Asking about slavery and politics when I'm talking about stupid shit like buttons. Smugly asking if we are still bitter about Sherman when I go into the Carolinas campaign, and this happened with some frequency. Which is a big no by the way, he saved the total war until after North Carolina because of our reluctance to join the war. They're just the fucking worst.

Though one time I had a lady ask why I have an interest in this, and the answer was that I had a direct ancestor who fought in the war and she asked me with a very concerned look on her face "How do you deal with the fact that he was evil." That was the worst. I was a little bummed.

Alright, so Pakistan wools is a term we use in the Civil War community to describe cheaply made, Wal-Mart quality uniforms. As you can tell by the name, they're typically made in Pakistan, and are usually sold cheap by sutlers that don't give a shit and bought by farbies that don't give a shit. They're cheap, off the shelf tripe that sells for little more than $30-45. They also tend to have the big, colorful trimmings on them. They come in your bog standard colors, blue and grey, and occasionally green if there's Berdans nearby.

With that being said, no one in the community takes guys who wear uniforms like that seriously. A lot of us have spent good money on making uniforms as accurate as possible, Hell, I've spent over $1100 on my kit, half of that on my uniform alone, while these ingrates are running around in fucking Halloween costumes and screaming about "Muh slavuree!"

Typically the guys who wear these cheap uniforms are inbred rednecks, too. My unit has a very high standard of behavior and 'high' standard of uniform (i.e. look like an actual mid-war reb would, no shiny uniforms unless you're an officer, etc.) and we let these guys fall in with us for maybe a battle or two before they fuck off and join the dismount cav because we're 'too prudish.'

Fuck man I hate farbies.

My players eat the flesh of their recently fallen enemies. They have a team of halfling refugees from south of the great river that skin, butcher and prepare the meals. With the excess used to feed the citizens of their fiefdom, you combat the drought they caused.
Which is how they contracted multiple diseases and thier whole fiefdom got infected with lycanthropy.

Any stories about shithead farbies anon?

Because running everything under a radiation source is quicker and cheaper on an industrial scale, even if it kills the egg's immune system and drops the unrefrigerated shelf life to a day. Stores don't sit on stock for dairy and eggs for more then two days or so, they have the rotation down to a science.

Playing two characters right now. One's a fish person from a sort of redneck, cajun type culture. Carries dry rice, dried peppers, dried meat, and some seasoning, boils it up into a tasty, spicy stew at campfires.

One's a fairy, and mostly just carries a few nuts and berries.

It's a sort of slang term for people involved in the reenactment thing who basically can't be bothered.

Don't really know about the history, don't put a lot of effort into their costumes, etc.

Basically the reenactment equivalent of That Guy, only there's a lot of them.

Limes.
He literally carries a seemingly infinite sack of limes around with him at all times, and offers them to people at various times.
He used to be a pirate (okay "used") and he knows the dangers of scurvy, so he resolved to never be without easy access to limes.
It's not fully understood how the limes are always fresh, but nobody really questions it.

I dunno, do you?

First time I actually used that phrase I had one of those moments where you think "oh my god, that's gonna get carved on my tombstone".

Though, I suppose it's slightly better than "...and so I decided that rape was the only moral option."

Rations when travelling, also a party member conjures food. in town, meat and beer.

Hard tack/johnny cake, often made himself, nuts and dried bitter citrus fruits, often supplemented with fresh game (but prefers small fish above all else) when available, and carries dried meat when he knows it will not.
He keeps a small jar of a spice blend similar to Chinese 7 Spice from his homeland, and will refill it with it's component spices whenever he gets to a town.
I've actually spent more time hunting down the spices than any amount of gear.

>>54051528
Well, it's a sorta story idea I picked up on /co/. One of many, actually, the shota section of my ideas notepad is decidedly turgid.

>An illegal fighting ring with a twist, as fathers bring their young sons to duke it out and make bets on the winners. A simple housewife is shocked to learn her husband has brought their athletic, but timid son to such fights, where he is undefeated with 4-0. When her husband ends up shot to death outside his business, she's paid a visit by the organizer, who threatens the same to them if she pulls her son or goes to the police. But with the prospect of winning enough fights to get out, she has no choice but to take over as her son's coach, pushing him to win at all costs (and pushing him to compete with whatever it takes.)

So, not as bad as all that.

There's definitely overlap with it, anon.Medical herbs and cooking spices share lots of the same rolls, look at Curry for example, it's basically a soup of medicinal plants.
