The Good Cop/Bad Cop routine is about trying to get information out of someone. Since Tropes Are Flexible, this doesn't necessarily have to be cops against a prisoner. Someone who wants information from another person will try this routine, first demanding that their captive tell them what they know, and then getting harsher in their treatment. If that doesn't work, it's time to try being nice. They'll try to tempt them with food. How about a nice hot bowl of rice? Maybe some udon noodles will help ease your mind? Maybe a juicy steak or a cheeseburger can do the work too. It doesn't necessarily have to be a bowl or plate of food, but it does have to be food (delicious, of course) being offered as part of a Good Cop/Bad Cop routine to count for this trope. This trope is very common in Anime, with the usual depiction of "katsudon" (rice topped with a deep-fried breaded pork cutlet, egg, vegetables, and condiments, usually served in a white and blue striped bowl), but in general every delicious plate offered to get the truth works on this trope. Defiant prisoners won't fall for this and will reply with I'm Not Hungry. Subtrope of Perp Sweating and Food as Bribe, and related to Good Cop/Bad Cop and No, Mr. Bond, I Expect You to Dine. See also Pet the Dog, in which food is not the only kind way to make someone confess, and Motivation on a Stick, where something, most often food, is also used to get someone to do as the other wishes. Also related to In Vino Veritas, which includes plying someone with alcohol in the hope that they'll let something slip through drunkenness. May be used by a character who believes Torture Is Ineffective and prefers to try to form a bond with the subject. Can overlap with Slipping a Mickey, in which the food probably contains Truth Serum so the suspect can tell the truth without knowing it. |

The Devil is a Part-Timer! has a pair of demons transported to Earth, where the lack of Mana causes them to be De Powered and become almost identical to humans. They soon cause enough trouble to be taken in by the police and offered a bowl of katsudon... which they mishear as "Khatsu-doum" and assume must be something powerful. | |

Discussed in Red Storm Rising; an American naval officer tells the bosun to pipe aboard the survivors of a Soviet submarine and salute them. He then tells another officer to be as kind as possible to the Soviet sailors, as it would make them more open to interrogation, and also refers to Hanns Scharff's techniques. Later in the book, similar methods are used on a well-connected Soviet fighter pilot who is rescued at sea. | |

Stargate SG-1: Played for Laughs in "Rules of Engagement". Having brought Rogers, an injured off-worlder, back to the SGC for treatment, Jack begins trying to get information out of him by pointing out the food tray the medical staff brought him. In "Beachhead" the team deals with Nerus, a Big Eater Goa'uld who offers information on the Oris' plans in exchange for being wined and dined. Subverted when he gives them false information that helps advances the plan instead, at which point General Landry orders him thrown in prison and deprived of more than the bare minimum of food until he starts actually helping. |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Sisko and O'Brien have semi crash-landed on a planet which has a field that neutralizes all technology. They're put to work, but they don't change their Starfleet uniforms for native wear, and O'Brien sneaks off to try to get his communicator working. As punishment, Sisko (his superior officer) is put in "the Box". He comes out dehydrated, and the leader pours him a glass of water, saying he can have it when he changes out of uniform. In response, Sisko walks away and puts himself back in the box. | |

In response, Sisko walks away and puts himself back in the box. Subverted in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Chain of Command". Picard has been starved and imprisoned by the Cardassians and suffered multiple brutal interrogations. However, at the beginning of one session, his captor offers him breakfast—a nice, normal Cardassian breakfast of a raw Taspar egg. Picard is so desperate for food that he eats it anyway. |

There's a plenty of cases on Law & Order where they offer a suspect something to eat (usually fast food), particularly a young one. In fact there's even a subversion in SVU where they feed the guy soda so they can get a look at his dongle in the loo (since their suspect had a penis piercing). One SVU episode takes this trope the full distance by having the detectives use food to coerce a young homeless girl to talk. As she hasn't eaten in several days, it doesn't take much. |

The Fallen London comic A Pinch of Snuff provides a variation, in that the one being interrogated has not been asked anything; he's just presented every so often with a fresh new Trump and Fotheringray Esteemed Meat Pie and left alone with it to see if he'll eat it. Suspicions that he's a Snuffer are confirmed when he gets up and eats the room's candle instead. | |
