When the Main Characters of a fantasy story stop for a meal, they don't get much of a choice on what to eat. If the setting is anything close to "generic copy of Europe", they'll be handed cheese, a rough-looking loaf of bread, a wooden bowl of stew or soup, and a tankard of ale. Rich, aristocratic characters might have a joint of meat as well. If the characters are fixing a quick lunch on the road, they might have a pasty or meat pie or some sausage with them, but otherwise it's cheese and bread. Beer would only be available if they just left a town where they could have bought some, anything cooked requires a longer stop (so is normally reserved for the evening meal). Actual medieval cookery was far more advanced than thisnote Admittedly, the extant cookbooks were written for noble households, but unless the author is a history and/or cooking buff, you won't see any sign of this. You also won't see anyone eating plant-based foods other than bread, unless it's being used in the stewpot. Poor people or travelers could gather wild plants, nuts, and mushrooms, but only rarely will fictional characters do likewise. That said, there's a certain amount of Truth in Television here for poor people. Peasants didn't eat much meat, but bread would have been a staple item, and the stewpot was an efficient way to cook, as you could mix in bits and pieces of roots and herbs you happen to have. In Real Life, during the early medieval period, peasants ate "bread, porridge, herb and roots", supplemented by fish, shellfish, hare, pigs fattened on acorns and chicken. The root crops included "turnips, radishes, onion, leeks, carrots (of a sort)" and parsnip. In the "herb" category were cabbage, spinach, cress, and nettle/thistle sprouts. note Tannahill, Reay. Food in History. Crown Publishing, 1988. p. 93 By the late medieval era, sheep were an important food source, supplying milk, meat and cooking fat. Even though pasture-grazed sheep's meat was "stringy", slow-cooking in a stew pot helped to tenderize it.note Tannahill, Reay. Food in History. Crown Publishing, 1988. p. 175 A subtrope of The Dung Ages, but can also be found in works that avert that trope. See also All Beer Is Ale and The Need for Mead. For general information about actual medieval European cuisine, see our Useful Notes page for Medieval Food In Europe. |

Heralds of Valdemar: Higher-class inns have more variety, but the "menu" at poorer inns/taverns like the Hollybush from Take A Thief is stew made from better inns' scraps, coarse bread, and stale beer. The Collegium Chronicles novels have a lot of "traveler's pies", at one inn visited in Bastion different versions of these pies are the only things on the menu. Partly averted in the Owl Trilogy. While the Tayledras team needs foodstuffs that won't go bad while they're traveling, Ayshen and the other hertasi make sure every meal includes something "green and growing" instead of just meat and travel bread — even in the dead of winter. |

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild averts this. While not exactly medieval in terms of certain technologies, the environment and combat in Hyrule closely matches the standard medieval affair. The game provides a significantly wide variety of ingredients for the player to use, and many complex combinations can produce special food like cakes, pies, and several regional dishes from the different villages. However, no matter what dish you may be preparing, Link will just dump all of the ingredients into the cooking pot like he's making a stew. | |

Redwall: Mostly averted. Though the simpler staple foods will be mentioned, especially eaten by travelers on the road, the author would usually go into mouth-watering elaborate detail about what's served at the feasts (which are frequent). It's to the point there's a cookbook with recipes of the dishes mentioned in the series. | |

Dungeon Keeper Ami: In Meet the Locals, the narration describes Ami's first meal at an inn like this: "The waitress appeared and set a plate down in front of the famished girl. It contained steaming potatoes and some kind of sausage she didn't recognize. The meal also came with a large mug of foamy beer". A later meal, at another inn, has "milk, honey, bread, and slices of bacon". | |

In The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, houses usually have cheese, bread, and an assortment of fruits and vegetables strewn across the table. They aren't prepared in any specific way — there are full loaves of bread, full heads of lettuce, etc. It seems like nobody ever actually cooks, but just eats stock pieces of food. It might also be worth mentioning that this is a universe where putting cheese on bread would be considered "alchemy." | |

In a random conversation in Dragon Age: Origins, Leliana asks Alistair the recipe for last night's dinner. Alistair says it's a traditional Fereldan stew: you throw meat and vegetables in a pot and cook until everything turns uniformly brown. Leliana says it was awful. This is probably a joke about British cuisine, as Ferelden is basically fantasy Britain and Leliana is from Orlais, which is fantasy France. | |

Averted in Slayers where the heroes may visit a place simply to try their local cuisine and tear through several plates of it. An episode was devoted to the killing of a large dragon as the main ingredient of a local specialty, although the characters don't actually get to eat it because the flesh is very poisonous and takes months to make it edible. | |

Dragon magazine #29 article "Inns and Taverns". A list of food available at taverns included four types of stew (snake, rabbit, wolf and otter) and bread. #277 article "The New Adventures of Volo: Dragonwing Stew". Played with, the article starts by saying the primary food in most inns is stew and bread, but adds that, depending on the locale, there may also be fish (fresh or salted), joints of meat, fruit and vegetables, sausages, "hand tarts" (basically Cornish pasties), or a kind of rodent kebab called "darkback skewers". |

The game has a medieval setting and food production involves making use of farms and then Refining Resources.

Mocked in The Tough Guide to Fantasyland, naturally. "Stew is the staple food in Fantasyland, so be warned. You may shortly be longing passionately for omelette, steak or baked beans, but none of these will be forthcoming, indoors or out. Stew will be what you are served to eat every single time." "Bread is quite well known in Fantasyland, but you will seldom get much of it and it will never be fresh. You might be given some to sop up your stew in an inn of an evening, but in the morning, just as that day's baking should be ready, the Rules state that you will make a hurried departure, having time to grab up only a piece of stale loaf and a hunk of cheese." |

In A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones, pot shops in the poorer parts of King's Landing will sell you a hunk of bread and a "bowl of brown", an indeterminate stew made of meat, vegetables, and the occasional political undesirable. Averted for the nobility in the novels, where Martin devotes pages to describing in detail the elaborate meals everyone is eating. (Binging with Babish did an episode devoted to the foods of Game of Thrones, including two high-class dishes—the game pie served at the Purple Wedding and the lemon cakes served at Highgarden—and a less high-class one—Dothraki blood pie.) Food gets enough attention for the series to have its own cookbook, A Feast of Ice and Fire. |

In the Drenai novels by David Gemmell, the meals of soldiers and townspeople tend to consist of black bread, often with cheese and beer (or wine, and meat for those who can obtain it). Averted in the case of a wealthy, famous competition fighter, who eats a sophisticated variety of nutritious foods and coaches his students to do the same. The books often describe other peoples of the world in detail, in terms of their culture, dress, religion and philosophy, but their regional foods are rarely described beyond, for example, the cookpots of an encamped horde. | |

Parodied in Delicious in Dungeon, where the sight of a group of adventurers sitting down for a meal of bread and salt pork sets Team Chef Senshi off on a rant about how typical adventuring rations (bread, meat, and wine) are nutritionally deficient. As the Touden party's cook, he considers his job not only to feed them but to feed them well, using foodstuffs hunted and foraged from the dungeon itself to keep their meals balanced and healthy. | |

Merlin seems to have several instances of the bread and cheese popping up, but Gaius and Merlin often had meat as well. Averted with the scenes of Arthur, Merlin and the knights traveling, they seem to have often brought food from the castle (usually stew ingredients) and added to it whatever Arthur could hunt. Probably justified in both cases, since all of them had access to the king's kitchen, even if Gaius and Merlin still got less luxurious meals. | |
