Humanity is often depicted as being quite far behind and unevolved compared to the civilizations of other worlds. We've barely touched upon space travel, crippled by many debilitating diseases, and still succumb to waging war among ourselves. What could us Puny Earthlings possibly offer to more advanced, superior lifeforms? Well if there's one thing that humanity has consistently used to impress other species, is our amazing ability to cook. Advanced aliens will obsess over simple Earth foods and in some cases might trade their sophisticated technology for these delicacies. Despite otherwise being an Insignificant Little Blue Planet, the Earth is of value thanks to its tremendous culinary feats. Despite the title, the species in question doesn't necessarily have to be extraterrestrial and can even be natives to Earth. In some cases, this can be justified as a result of Alien Catnip, where some chemical in human food is literally addictive to a non-human. In extreme cases, the aliens are not only fond of human food but lose control of themselves, displaying behavior akin to addiction. Subtrope of Humans Are Special. See also No Biochemical Barriers, which naturally has to be in effect for this trope to be even possible. See Klingons Love Shakespeare for when this applies outside culinary feats, or contrast Alien Arts Are Appreciated. When the "human" in "human food" is literal, see To Serve Man. |

Loki once opined that he loved Earth food for it's variety ("So many types of breakfast meat!") whereas Asgardian food tends to be "roast haunch of whatever animal was killed that day." He does have limits, though: an earlier story where he teamed up with Spider-Man had Loki balk at being offered a hot dog. | |

In Supernatural: Death has a particularly strong craving for human food, especially junk food. This is quite remarkable considering how Death is so dismissive of Earth as an Insignificant Little Blue Planet, yet is so overly fond of something the tiny mortals whipped up in the kitchen. Dean typically prepares an offering of Food as Bribe to appease him if they are ever forced to summon him. He also gives his reasons for sparing Chicago due to liking their pizza. Castiel, who is an angel, reveals himself to have a bit of a burger addiction. This causes much confusion from Dean and Sam who wonder how an angel can be so obsessed with burgers, to which Castiel tries to Hand Wave it as his vessel, Jimmy, having a craving for ground meat. Taken to the extreme when Castiel is under Famine's influence, where he had already consumed burgers that numbered "somewhere in the low hundreds" and still had room for more. |

Although it opens every day in a human town, every Saturday a Portal Door appears in a random place where different fantasy races (from elves and dwarfs to dragons and demons) can come to the restaurant to eat human food, which they find delicious. | |

In XCOM: Chimera Squad, your Sectoid squad member Verge has an obsession with human cuisine that is to some extent a matter of Forbidden Fruit. Sectoids are fatally allergic to many terrestrial foods, so that radio ads for various eateries include disclaimers informing whether or not the product is safe for Sectoids to consume. As such, Verge is willing to pay for squadmate Cherub's lunch if he'll consent to Verge using his Psychic Powers to vicariously enjoy a coveted Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. | |

Sam & Fuzzy: The Robots, while not strictly speaking alien since they were made on Earth, still fits this trope as an insular, alien species with it's own civilization, being a race of self-aware machines. Despite being generally condescending towards humans, and other humanoid species, many of them are fascinated with human culture, especially food, and some of them have even begun selling illegal technology just so they can indulge in it. The Robots lack any real creative food on their own (a robot chef had to study for ten years just to realize she could shape her flavorless food paste into geometric shapes), because as mechanical beings, they suffer somewhat from Creative Sterility, not helped by their lack of biological drives and their society having to build everything from scratch. They can taste perfectly well, but there's no reason for them to want to. | |

Farscape: Inverted and played for laughs. Moya's crew is getting together to share a meal, everyone having made something from their home. Chrichton makes his grandma's biscuits, and. . . well, they aren't very good. When he's asked what's in them, he gives the list of ingredients, only to be told none of those things exist on the ship. To which Chrichton nonchalantly replies that's probably the reason his biscuits suck. In a later episode where the crew stops by Earth this gets played straight; human junk food with high amounts of salt sugar and fat is especially appreciated. Rygel in particular remarks that on other worlds sugar is used as a poison, and when he first encountered it in food he got such a sugar high that he assumed it must be an illegal drug. | |

It's occasionally used as a metaphor for how human culture is slowly dominating the cultures of aliens that ally with the Federation.

On The Next Generation, Worf's favorite drink is prune juice, a far cry from the bloodwine preferred by other Klingons.

In Death Note, Light discovers that Ryuk deeply loves apples. It's unclear if all Shinigami are like this, or just Ryuk. Nonetheless in Ryuk's case it borderlines on being addiction and when deprived he experiences withdrawal symptoms. | |

In Animorphs, if there's one thing that can make an Andalite go out of control, it's letting them try out human food while they have taken human form. Human-morphed Andalites will lose all self-control over the simplest of treats like sweets, chocolate, and cinnamon buns. This is justified as in their native forms, Andalites do not have a sense of taste in the traditional mannernote as they eat grass through their hooves so upon taking human form they experience Sensory Overload and are overwhelmed by their new form's instincts. Ax at one point daydreams of a future after the war when there will be pilgrimages of Andalites coming to Earth just to morph human and stuff their faces with "Earth delicacies". Once the Andalites and Earth establish diplomatic relations, this actually ends up happening, with Andalite tourists rushing to try tasting food for the first time. Eventually, it gets to the point where there's actually semi-serious talk of the Andalites being willing to consider sharing the morphing technology - their most closely-guarded scientific achievement - in exchange for a Krispy Kreme franchise on their planet. | |

In Dragon Ball Super it's a Running Gag for Beerus and Whis to be amazed by Earth's food. This is really saying something considering that Beerus is a gourmand who has spent lifetimes traveling from planet to planet demanding the best food from the inhabitants, so for him to class Earth as his favorite really is putting it as the cream of the crop. The two of them are willing to make trip after trip to sample something tasty. Beerus can also easily be bribed into not destroying the Earth if given something new to try. In fact, during Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods the fate of the Earth was at stake simply because Beerus missed out on the chance to try a pudding cup. | |

Martian Manhunter develops an addiction to Chocosnote DC's Bland-Name Product for Oreos some time after he visits Earth. At one point it got so bad that after being deprived of them he goes into withdrawal and throws a tantrum as a rampaging monster. Unlike most examples, this one is actually justified as Batman discovers Chocos produce a chemical reaction in Martians similar to addictive narcotics. | |

Futurama: Dr. Zoidberg and his species became infatuated with Earth food upon arriving on the planet, especially to anchovies, which eventually led to the extinction of said species from overeating. Zoidberg himself appears to have an addiction to the fish and upon finally getting to eat a few, he displays the telltale behavior of a drug addict having a relapse. Inverted in regards to Elzar, who is an alien, specifically a Neptunian, who is deemed the Earth's greatest Supreme Chef. He is an expert cook in all forms of cuisines, human or alien. Earth is generally treated as a backwater joke of a planet by most alien races, but humans are held in high regard even by the ridiculously advanced and powerful Nibblonians for inventing the pizza bagel, which is universally considered delicious. |

In Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, while most dragons are Big Eaters who enjoy any food both dragon or human-made, Elma holds it in particular high regard and can be easily bribed with it. It's also stated in an early chapter that produce found on Earth is superior to that found in the other world (discounting those of the supernatural variety) due to selective breeding. | |

When the titular Goblin Slayer has his first camping night with his newfound party, the group trade their respective races' native foods. Goblin Slayer offers cheese, and Lizard Priest absolutely loves it, calling it "nectar" and often asking for more in later episodes. He even swears to visit even more wrath upon the Goblins (whom he was already more than willing to hunt down) later on when Cow Girl's farm (which is also Goblin Slayer's home) is threatened by a huge Goblin raid and Goblin Slayer tells him that that's where he gets the cheese that he's been giving him. | |

At the beginning of the actual game, the Featureless Protagonist finds blueprints and a manual to make a BurgerTron, and decides to start a restaurant chain from there on. By the time of the Spaceship's events, the aliens took notice of the chain, wherein the protagonist finally makes the perfect food for them: triple bacon cheeseburgers with ranch dressing. | |
