Feeding someone, as a gesture of affection or an attempt to win it. (Or both.) The person doing the feeding may not even realize why they feel this desire to feed the other. While they do not have to cook it themselves, that adds to the significance.
Related to Feminine Women Can Cook, and often these two tropes are run together in the same plot line. If the main Love Interest is a Tomboy expect her to (often comically) struggle until some older mother figure takes pity on her and helps.
Tsundere are prone to it, because it has Plausible Deniability — and can even express unconscious emotions.
Girls giving (or sharing) a bento with a male classmate is a common way to invoke this trope. The Japanese Valentine's day chocolate also often falls under this.
Men who try this are seldom entirely comfortable with the fact that they are cooking something, but they do it anyway. (Much more pointed, that way.)
If the cook is spectacularly terrible, then Hilarity Ensues, particularly if she's the type to drop-kick the Love Interest when he refuses to touch her cooking because it just ate a hole through the table.
In addition to the more common romantic version, there is also the occasional mother figure to child version. In this version, an older woman (occasionally male but usually a woman) tries to demonstrate maternal love to a younger person by cooking for them. If the child is a Broken Bird, or if the older woman is a Lethal Chef this can result in failure.
The Earth Mother, Granny Classic, and Mama Bear engage in this on a regular basis for their children, but it's not limited to women. The Team Chef may do this to express the Power of Friendship for their True Companions. It may also have something to do with the tendency of characters to fall in love with waitresses. Indeed, any character who cooks on a regular basis probably does this as well. It acts more as a characterization trope, indicating a generalized benevolence toward a large group or even all of humanity (or more), than a particular relationship, though even here it often indicates that a person has been accepted into their True Companions.
Supertrope of Your Favorite. Compare Tastes Like Friendship and Food as Bribe. Has nothing whatsoever, aside from Rule 34, to do with Right Through His Pants. For something that goes through someone's stomach violently, see Kill It Through Its Stomach and Impaled with Extreme Prejudice. May overlap with Chocolate of Romance. Sweet Baker is a related trope in which a baker has a sweet personality to complement the sweets they regularly prepare.

Iron Druid Chronicles features a rather interesting example. Iron elementals eat magic. Fey are magical beings. Atticus befriends an iron elemental called Ferris by feeding it the Fey scouts Aenghus Og sends to find him. Then he kicks Aenghus Og's butt using, among other things, a magical talisman that he made with Ferris's help.

On Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Italian-American detective Sonny Carisi often shows his affection or appreciation through food, particularly with his partner, Amanda Rollins. His compulsive desire to feed her (claiming she doesn't eat enough) is bordering on Running Gag, and he is often at her home cooking for her and her daughters, or teaching her oldest to cook. When he brings her home to meet his parents, his Ma proves this is an inherited trait, as she takes one look at Amanda and declares "she needs to eat."

Discussed in Zero Time Dilemma when Akane and Carlos are locked in the pantry. When Akane mentions baking cookies as a child, Carlos asks if she made heart-shaped cookies for Junpei filled with love. She asks him to stop teasing her, but doesn't deny it. At another point when they're making gelatin as part of a puzzle, Carlos suggests that making some for Junpei and giving it to him with the words "I made it just for you" would instantly win his heart.

Marx's description in Kirby Star Allies states that he'll be on good terms with you if he's well-fed, assuming that was why he tricked the sun and moon into fighting and tricked Kirby into giving him power. That said, the Japanese descriptions reveal that he's pulling an Enemy Mine because the looming threat of the Jambastion cult is making him worried of his own safety.

Nicely done in The Story of Saiunkoku, in which Shuurei's cooking wins Ryuuki's heart twice over. In the backstory of the series, Shouka shared the food Shuurei cooked for him with Ryuuki whenever Ryuuki visited the Archives, effectively becoming Ryuuki's Parental Substitute since he was neglected and abused by the rest of his family. Later, when Ryuuki and Shuurei first meet in person, she shares her tea and sweet bean buns with him; he recognizes her cooking, and falls in love with her in very short order.

In one chapter of the harem comedy Ai Kora, Maeda tries to get home to enjoy a chocolate sculpture of a girl with all his "ideal parts" that he had commissioned. Unfortunately, it's Valentine's Day, and he keeps getting sidetracked by all the girls in his harem plying him with chocolate (lots of chocolate, in the case of Ayame and Kirino).

Repeatedly used for comedy in Tokyo Ghoul.
Touka's Muggle Best Friend, Yoriko, is a firm believer in this. When she brings Touka a stew as a get-well present and sees Kaneki there, she mistakenly believes him to be Touka's boyfriend. She immediately tells Touka to eat the stew with him, and departs with a thumbs-up — ignoring Touka's attempts to protest that it isn't like that.
In the light novels, a mysterious woman named Koharu repeatedly brings Amon homemade cupcakes as a present. Unfortunately, he's Oblivious to Love and she's the Ghoul he was sent to exterminate.
In the same light novel, a story centers around Misato's efforts to express her feelings to Amon by cooking him donuts. Too bad she's an oblivious Lethal Chef, and ends up giving the employees of several Branches food poisoning when she gives them her test batches. When she finally manages to give Amon the gift, he mistakes it for a character-building exercise from a superior.
In another of the light novels, Kaneki (a former human and thus the only one with any idea how to cook human food) invokes it himself, making a picnic lunch for Touka and Yoriko to help them through an argument.
In a strange way, Touka and Kaneki's mutual attraction is hinted at very early on — Kaneki's first taste of human flesh is a chunk forced on him by Touka. She also later knocks him out to stop him killing and eating his best friend, then feeds him while he's unconscious to keep it from happening again when he wakes up.

A common plot in Ranma ½. Ranma really does think with his stomach a lot, and Akane is very determined to cook for him (as a Lethal Chef, Hilarity Ensues). Her rivals, Ukyo (an expert Chef) and Shampoo (works in a Ramen cafe) often use food as a way to gain an advantage over Akane in their pursuit of Ranma. In particular, the anime Christmas episode has Akane wondering why Ranma is late — and then she imagines Shampoo tempting him with a turkey, and Ranma responding "I always wanted to eat a whole turkey". It was rather amusing Character Development, because it showed that Akane now realized that Ranma would not be tempted by Shampoo's body but rather by the food.

She refuses to feed him until she drops him in jail, he reminds her that "the path to a man's heart is through his stomach", but she replies that she prefers more direct ways.

Gilmore Girls:
Sookie is a great chef and she's seen preparing food for her boyfriend (later husband) Jackson or her best friend Lorelai (who can't cook to save her life).
Lorelai and her daughter Rory often eat at Luke's diner. He's their close friend and their dinners, lunches or dinners there look like friends or family eating together. They often show their appreciation and say multiple times that Luke is the one who feeds them and that they owe him for their survival. Later, Lorelai and Luke get together romantically.
Lane's boyfriend Zach who was for a long time her friend, band-mate and room-mate prepares romantic dinner for her when he plans sleeping with her for the first time. Lane was completely oblivious and then shocked when she got it.

CSI: NY.
Soon after Mac and Christine start seeing each other in Season 8, they decide to meet at her restaurant for dinner one night, but he ends up calling to cancel because of work...again.
Flack's grandmother invokes the maternal version with him and his sister, Sam. She lures them to her place with pleas for help with a (non-existent) leak under her sink, then plies them with homemade Italian food until they can't eat any more...yet continues to offer them more servings.

Although Link is as much of a Heroic Mime as ever, Zelda's diary reveals he finally opened up to her in the backstory (offscreen) when she cooked him a meal as thanks for saving her from the Yiga Clan.
There's a class in Gerudo Town that teaches Gerudo planning to go look for a mate how to interact with men; they also teach cooking lessons so that the students can invoke this trope.

In Dual! Parallel Trouble Adventure, three of the girls compete this way. Each of the girls has a different cooking ethnicity, and Kazuki ends up having to eat every morsel on every plate just to maintain the peace. A fourth girl, D, doesn't know how to cook, so she just adds instant curry sauce to all 3 meals in an attempt to compete. The irony is that Kazuki prefers bachelor food, like instant ramen.

Octopath Traveler II uses this as a twist on a pre-existing mechanic. Certain members of the Player Party can recruit NPCs as temporary Guest Star Party Members; these NPCs will follow the team around, can be used as an Assist Character a set number of times, and will sometimes contribute passive support abilities. Ochette, the Hunter, is The Beastmaster who can capture Random Encounters monsters and either use them as Assist Characters... or cook them into food, which then serves as the consumable reagents for her recruitment ability. (The prepared dishes can also be used on the party for standard "Restore Hit Points and/or Magic Points" purposes.)

In the 1937 Merrie Melodies short "I Only Have Eyes for You", a lonely spinster tries to woo an iceman with her culinary talents. It initially fails since he only has eyes for another girl who is only interested in crooners. The iceman hires a voice imitator and hides him in the back of his ice-truck so he can pretend to be a crooner. The scheme ultimately fails but everything still works out for the best: the girl falls in love with the voice imitator, the iceman is won over by the spinster's cooking.

Cafe Enchante:
Misyr is quite fond of the coffee Kotone makes for him. Doubly so as he mentioned that out of all the foods he has tried in his lifetime, coffee is his favorite thing.
Despite never outwardly praising Kotone's food, Ignis is noted to enjoy her cooking and always cleans up every plate she serves to him.
Rindo's route reveals he is an excellent cook and Kotone thoroughly enjoys the meal he prepared for her.

Taiga from Toradora! is at her most content when she eats good food. Her classmate and neighbor Ryuuji is an excellent cook. Do the math.
This example reverses the gender roles in the trope, because the male (Ryuuji) is good at cooking and housekeeping, while the female (Taiga) is hopeless at both. Though Character Development has her improve somewhat by the end, moving her from "utterly hopeless" to "moderately good" at caring for herself.

In D.Gray-Man, apparently this is the way to Allen's heart. It's entirely possible to bribe him into having positive, happy feelings towards the person. In one instance, Miranda, unable to think of any way to cheer him up, gives him her candy, which makes him ridiculously happy. In another instance, Rohfa apparently caught on to the idea, and is implied to be trying to court him by bribing him with huge boxes of Mitarashi Dango (his favorite). Granted, he only seemed to happily notice the food, without the romantic implications... but, well, it's a start, right?

Used throughout the Fire Emblem series:
A non-romantic version occurs in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade with Child Mage Lugh. Half of his supports start with or involve him bringing leftover baked goods to the other person and them getting flustered over it (his friend Chad acts like a classic Tsundere over it). In one case he does this with the wyvern belonging to Miledy.
In Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, Ilyana is noted in base conversations (as well as her supports with Zihark, Gatrie and Mia's Foot) to deprive soldiers of their food with her cuteness (and then forget their names).
In Fire Emblem: Awakening, this seems to be a sort-of theme for several characters:
In Sumia and Chrom's supports, she bakes him a series of savory pies (a bento in the Japanese version) in hopes of both winning his heart and help him outside the battlefield. If she's married, her "gift" reply to her husband on an event tile is her showing him that she has made lunch for him... even if she dropped it twice — this event shows up regardless of who said husband is note (Chrom, boy!Avatar, Frederick, Gaius or Henry), so it shows that she cooks for all of her love interests.
Kellam can have two girls cooking for him... not bad or a guy who's often forgotten. On one hand, Lissa bakes him a "rainbow-filled" pie but it doesn't go that well. On the other, Olivia makes rock candy for him with some honey that he brought her before and it works much better.
Gaius invokes the trope several times too. He tries to win the aforementioned Olivia's heart with pies and proposes to her via hiding a ring inside a tart he baked for her, helps Lissa improve her cooking, and a good part of his supports with Sumia include their Epic Fail at finding honey for pies. (She manages to bake him a cake in the end.) In his own "gift" dialogue with a girlfriend has him saying he's baked a treat for her.
Stahl wins Panne's trust and affection over by trying to come up with meals she can enjoy with the others. This one's quite justified: being a Taguel instead of a human (meaning she has the dietary needs of a rabbit, the animal that the Taguel are based from), there are several things that Panne simply cannot eat, lest she'll get sick or even die.
As a Ninja Maid, Cherche is said to be a pretty good cook too. Her ending with Stahl has him actually gaining weight from eating all of her delicious food.
Mixed gender example: the Avatar (whether male or female) makes a carrot stew for the aforementioned Panne. S/he is a Lethal Chef. Panne loves it anyway.
The male Avatar starts cooking for Nah in their A Support after seeing that her diet consists of little more than berries, leaves, and roots. She greatly appreciates the gesture because in the Bad Future, where Nah was raised by scornful foster parents, food was scarce, which was especially a problem for a half-dragon like Nah, as manaketes require far more food than humans to survive.
Tharja, in her attempts to get closer to the Avatar (regardless of gender), tries her hand at "acting normal" and cooks their favorite meal: liver-and-eel pie. The Avatar is taken aback by Tharja's drastic change in personality (even saying that they preferred her old habits), but they DO find the pie in itself to be delicious.
Tharja's daughter Noire is an excellent baker. Her supports with Owain show her baking for him, and if she supports with a Male Avatar who's not her dad he agrees to go out in a date with her to taste her cakes.
The "gift" reply from event tiles involving Cordelia's daughter Severa have her giving her lover something she baked for him. Being a tsundere, she immediately tells him "don't you DARE complain about the taste!"
Sully and Cynthia mention in some of their supports that the village girls often give them savory pies with cream (Sully) and sweet cakes (Cynthia) to show their admiration for them.
In Lon'qu and Cordelia's supports, it's revealed that Cordelia often cooks dinner for the army with this trope in mind.
Fire Emblem Fates also has this trope as a sort-of theme for some characters:
Peri is said to be "the best cook of the army", and she cooks for her partner Laslow in their S support as thanks for helping her deal with her mother's death. She also shares her homemade sweets with Kaze and he notes how good of a cook she is.
Charlotte, as a mix of The Fake Cutie and Gold Digger, uses her cooking skills as one of her "tactics" to attract men. It backfires hilariously in her Invisible Kingdom B and A supports with Saizo: he trolls her several times via Stealth Hi Byes, and in one of them he drinks the soup she was preparing before Charlotte can even blink, which pisses the HELL out of her. (He does acknowledge the good taste, however.)
Hana and the aforementioned Saizo's support chain begins when a very hungry Hana asks him to give her some food. He hands her one of the basic food rations that the Hoshidan ninjas carry when in missions; she loves it so much that, in the B support, she asks him for the recipe so she can make it later. If they reach a S support and Saizo proposes to Hana, they explicitly say that this food deal helped them grow closer.
More than one support chain including Mozu is about this trope, since she's the closest to a Team Chef in the troops. Again, Saizo is among the prospect 'candidates', and his Mozu supports shed quite the light about his past as the two bond over food.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses plays with this in two ways: You can raise your Support Points with other characters by eating meals with them in the mess hall, with greater gains earned if you choose one of their favorite foods. You can also have other characters help out in the kitchen once a month to cook a meal to provide your army with a temporary stat boost. Selecting someone who's good at cooking (such as Mercedes, Dedue, or Ashe) will also increase their Support Points significantly, while choosing a Lethal Chef (or someone who hates to cook, like Hanneman) won't give you any additional benefit.

Naruto:
In Episode 159 of the original anime, Naruto eats one of Hinata's rice balls and compliments her by telling her that she would make a great wife. In Episode 12 of the Boruto anime, where Naruto and Hinata have been Happily Married for over a decade, he makes it clear that he prefers her home cooking rather than the cup noodles he's been eating at work lately. In Chapter 26 of the Boruto manga, Naruto boasts to Kawaki that Hinata's cooking is delicious, and tells him to look forward to it.
Naruto's own parents were similar in this regard. According to the databooks, Minato's favorite food was Kushina's home cooking.

The Dukes of Hazzard: Twisted into knots in "Cool Hands, Luke and Bo." There's no benevolent (and definitely no loving) affection between Col. Cassius Claybourne and his longtime rival, Boss Hogg, only Claybourne's desire to gain revenge on his longtime enemy and wipe him out financially and in many other ways ... by exploiting his appetite. Before it's done, Boss has eaten chicken, mashed potatoes, blueberry pie, chocolate cake and other high-calorie dishes, and Claybourne has gotten the mortgages to the Boar's Nest, Hazzard Bank, Cooter's Garage, the Boar's Nest, Hogg's used car lot and every other property in Hazzard County.

Wintergreen and First Lady of the United States is her ability to "bake the best darned corn muffins you ever ate." Now, Wintergreen may have made a campaign promise to marry the winner of an Atlantic City beauty contest, but the winner's chances of making him honor his promise are doomed when he finds out she can't make corn muffins.

The Princess and the Frog:
James, Tiana's father, explicitly talks about the good feelings that good cooking brings.
Tiana name-drops this to Charlotte, and Charlotte commissions food from her for this purpose.
Later on, when Naveen wants to propose to Tiana, he prepares her some minced vegetables. Nothing but big piles of minced vegetables. In this case it's really a symbolic gesture, as he worked hard for a change (and mincing is the only culinary skill Tiana had taught him).

Lola and Kyle's first meeting in The Young and the Restless is a variation on this. Kyle is at Lola's food truck, and keeps adding special requests to his order, prompting her to snap that if she does it his way, it'll wreck the meal. After arguing over it for a bit, Lola offers him a deal: he tries the sandwich her way, and if he doesn't like it, she'll make it his way for free. Kyle agrees, so Lola fixes the sandwich for him — and after two bites, Kyle concedes defeat. She then tells him to scram, since she has other customers, but he's clearly already got a crush on her, and the two start dating shortly thereafter.

Cooking for your crush (or eating the food from your crush) is a frequent focus in School Rumble.
Hanai challenges Harima to a cooking duel during a nature outing to impress a Tsukamoto girl. What Hanai is unaware of is that both he and Harima are each focused on a different sister: Harima wants to impress older sister Tenma, Hanai wants to impress younger sister Yakumo. Naturally, Hilarity Ensues.
Tenma wants to make food for her crush Karasuma and decides on curry which is his favorite food. Since she's a Lethal Chef, she has to get Yakumo to help make it. They make two bento boxes containing curry and two containing rice so that each sister can bring the lunches to school to share (Tenma with Karasuma, Yakumo with her friend Sarah). Unfortunately the plan goes downhill when the bentos get mixed up and Tenma ends up with both boxes of rice while Yakumo is stuck with the two boxes of curry. Fortunately for Tenma, Karasuma is content with turning the rice into onigiri and sharing them with her.
The girls of 2C making onigiri to share with the class while they're preparing for the school festival. Harima, who is perfectly aware that his crush Tenma is a Lethal Chef, attempts to eat her ongiri by finding the ones that taste the most disgusting. He thinks he's succeeded... only to then find out he ate the onigiri made by Eri (another Lethal Chef crushing on him) instead, much to her delight. Tenma then gives Harima the ongiri she actually made — to his horror, they're even worse than Eri's.

Early in the manga Dusk Maiden of Amnesia, Yuuko is shown feeding Teiichi from a bento. On the next page, she pulls him down onto her Lap Pillow. He's a bit weirded out by this, because Yuuko, although very good-looking and built, has been dead for something like fifty years. (She doesn't quite fit the Cute Ghost Girl terms, though, as everyone else in the school either can't see her at all or sees her as a Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl.)

In Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki, Ryoko attempts to do this to win over Tenchi in Episode 7. However, as she has no tastebuds to taste her meal and she's not willing to get Sasami, their resident cook, into the mix,note and doesn't trust her mother Washu enough to ask her to restore her sense of taste the results are disastrous. She ends up giving up, though.

One of the proposed ways of sabotaging Osana's attempts at winning Senpai's affections (not programmed into the game yet, but planned) in Yandere Simulator involves this trope. Osana's made an extra lunch for Senpai to have with her to invoke this trope. Yandere-chan can, if she so chooses, poison Senpai's meal with an emetic to make him sick and less likely to accept her love confession. Or she could poison Osana's meal in an attempt to get her alone and kill her quietly. Of course, she could just straight up poison Osana's meal with a lethal poison, but having Senpai witness his childhood friend die in front of him may have...unintended consequences.

Attempted by Ringo Oginome in Episode 3 of Penguindrum. She reads in a magazine that a curry plate made in specific circumstances will help her gain her crush Tabuki's attention, and thus she tries making curry for him. Too bad that Tabuki's actual girlfriend, Yuri, beat her to the punch.
In Episode 11, Shouma Takakura is seen cooking stuffed cabbage and his sister Himari notices it's a dish he only cooks when he intends to ask someone for forgiveness. She then speculates that he's had a fight with Ringo and says "I hope Ringo-chan likes cabbage!". In a subversion, Ringo don't get to taste it;she knocks the dish down because, when Shouma and Himari found her, the kid was in the middle of a huge Heroic BSoD.
Invoked again in Episode 17, since Shouma and Kanba's takoyaki is so good that not even the Princess of the Crystal can resist their taste.

Comes up in the young adult novel Darkest Powers novel The Awakening by Kelley Armstrong. When Derek first sees Chloe again, he offers her food and asks about her injury. His romantic rival for Chloe's affections even comments that Derek is "showing him up". Later, Derek acts a bit of a mother hen over Chloe, making her a bed of tarps, offering her his sweatshirt, and giving her his last granola bar. So it came as no surprise when a new character instantly observed that Derek considered Chloe his mate.

In Freefall, Helix observes that canines -- like Florence -- only need to be fed to be loyal.
Sam notes that eating together is obviously a deep need for Florence.
Somewhat justified; as Florence repeatedly points out in the early strips, canines apply social rank based on who eats first. This, she points out, can lead to some interesting differences from human rank structures...

Parodied in Aho Girl, where it's revealed in flashbacks that protagonist Yoshiko's crush on her childhood "friend" Akuru was initiated by an unintentional case of this; Yoshiko had just broken into Akuru's room while he was studying, and, feeling hungry, was begging him for food. Akuru, who just wanted to study in peace, fed her a banana so she would leave him alone already. Unfortunately for him, she turned out to find the banana absolutely delicious, and became convinced he was using this trope on her. She has been madly in love with him ever since -- much to his chagrin.

Played for horror in Supernatural with the Leviathans' plans: Leviathan Dick Roman takes over several food conglomerates and states that he's going to reform how they produce in order to make food tastier and healthier. He is in fact pumping the food with drugs that make whoever eats it fat, lazy, and stupid so that they can't fight back when the Leviathans turn America into their own personal long pork farm.

Majikoi! Love Me Seriously!:
Mayucchi usually makes, or offers to make food on the days when the dorm mother is off. In her route, she does this all the time for Yamato.
Miyako also attempts this on a regular basis, but unfortunately for her, her usual choice of fare is not exactly popular with Yamato.
Episode 5 of the anime also features everyone, including the guys and Cookie, catching on to Mayuuchi's idea, and showers him with whatever food they happen to carry. For added hilarity, Momoyo mentions that she's eaten half her yakisoba-pan (bread filled with noodles), which would mean an indirect kiss. This causes the rest of the girls to take bites out of what they gave him.

Hikari offers to make Touji a bento in Neon Genesis Evangelion. She says it's because she "makes food for her sisters so she always has leftovers" but it guaranteed that the fandom thought them an item from that point on.
Rebuild of Evangelion 2.0 has a surprisingly detailed and extended focus on cooking. Shinji is a good cook, and proves it during a field trip. Rei, hoping to reunite Shinji and Gendo, invites both of them to a dinner party where she will cook. Seeing Rei practice cooking makes Asuka jealous, and she, too, takes up the ladle and attempts to learn (though she is incredibly embarrassed when this is found out). A later scene proves that Rei is a far more dedicated learner than Asuka, as proven by the bandage count on their fingers.

In the Discworld fics of A.A. Pessimal, the Assassins' Guild School, after going co-educational, now has a Domestic Science department aimed at rounding out its young ladies. DomSci is taught the Assassin way by its principal teacher, Miss Joan Sanderson-Reeves, who has inhumed eighteen men via her excitingly original visualisation of culinary skills. She does indeed teach that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. But if you can't push the blade in that far, you can get him to inhume himself via what he puts in through his mouth, thanks to some novel and original seasonings and additives. "And if all else fails, girls, you will also learn how to feed yourselves and others properly and safely in my classes."

In the Kate Daniels novels, shapechangers ascribe ritual significance to food. Buying someone dinner at a restaurant is a symbol of affection; actually placing food into another's hands is an incredibly intimate gesture. Becomes a plot point when Kate unknowingly accepts food from a shapechanger's hands; she's accepting a sexual proposition and acknowledging his dominion over her.

In the portable version of Persona 3, a female main character can opt to cook Ken Amada's favorite dish for him. However, the context in which this scene takes place is entirely up to the player. Interestingly, you level up the rank before you get to the discussion on why she made the meal.
More generally, during Fuuka's Social Link the female protagonist can also make a number of sweets which can be given as gifts during weekend dates; these always go over famously.

In Maburaho Yuna constantly cooks for Kazuki and brings him bento boxes, because "that's what a wife is supposed to do". This is also played with in two instances, one being where Rin wants to try to cook a bento for a teacher she had a crush on; however, as she isn't as feminine as the rest of the female cast, her cooking tastes horrible. In the end, she doesn't give the bento to the teacher, but instead gives it to Kazuki who eats it all, despite its horrible taste. Also, when Kazuki's parents are supposed to come over to visit, upon learning eel is their favourite meal, all three girls attempt to prepare eel to impress his parents.

Cursed Princess Club:
Unintentionally by Gwendolyn. Her attempts to talk to Frederick are fraught with misunderstandings and accidents, but when he first tastes her cooking her natural warmth and kindness finally become clear to him, opening the way for him to take the first step towards actually getting to know his fiancée. The fact that he dozed off out of contentment from the meal (eaten after a very stressful day for him) and dropped his head onto her shoulder probably helped too.
There's also a non-romantic example when Gwen hosts a dinner party; throughout the series up to that point, Frederick's mother Queen Isolde had been aloof and disdainful of the Arranged Marriages of her sons or any other interactions with her future daughters-in-law (to the point of reading a magazine at the table during said party), but eating a delicious dessert of Gwen's finally makes her perk up and get involved in conversations with the other guests. In fact, nearly everyone at the dinner was getting acrimonious at that point (mainly due to an argument breaking out over King Jack's treatment of his daughters) before instantly calming down upon eating the dessert; Isolde simply had the most obvious change in demeanor.

Probably the main reason for the continuing marriage of Frank and Marie from Everybody Loves Raymond.
The lemon chicken that won Ray's heart — only for him to discover later that this is practically the only thing Debra can cook well — is in all probability a reference to "Engagement Chicken" as described below in Real Life.

A non-romantic version occurs in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade with Child Mage Lugh. Half of his supports start with or involve him bringing leftover baked goods to the other person and them getting flustered over it (his friend Chad acts like a classic Tsundere over it).

Fire Emblem Fates also has this trope as a sort-of theme for some characters:
Peri is said to be "the best cook of the army", and she cooks for her partner Laslow in their S support as thanks for helping her deal with her mother's death. She also shares her homemade sweets with Kaze and he notes how good of a cook she is.
Charlotte, as a mix of The Fake Cutie and Gold Digger, uses her cooking skills as one of her "tactics" to attract men. It backfires hilariously in her Invisible Kingdom B and A supports with Saizo: he trolls her several times via Stealth Hi Byes, and in one of them he drinks the soup she was preparing before Charlotte can even blink, which pisses the HELL out of her. (He does acknowledge the good taste, however.)
Hana and the aforementioned Saizo's support chain begins when a very hungry Hana asks him to give her some food. He hands her one of the basic food rations that the Hoshidan ninjas carry when in missions; she loves it so much that, in the B support, she asks him for the recipe so she can make it later. If they reach a S support and Saizo proposes to Hana, they explicitly say that this food deal helped them grow closer.
More than one support chain including Mozu is about this trope, since she's the closest to a Team Chef in the troops. Again, Saizo is among the prospect 'candidates', and his Mozu supports shed quite the light about his past as the two bond over food.

After realizing how thoroughly destroyed his budding friendship with his unintentionally insensitive criticism, Hanzo tries to return the favor by making McCree gyudon.

Parodied in Fushigi Yuugi. Tamahome is forced by circumstances to break up with Miaka. She, of course, is hurt and confused, and when it's time to prepare lunch, Miaka volunteers to help out. She ends up cooking with Xi Fang, the foster daughter of the Byakko Warriors Tokaki and Subaru, whom circumstances lead Miaka to be jealous of. Miaka gets distracted and burns all that she cooks, while Xi Fang's cooking is perfect, and Hilarity Ensues when everyone takes the first bite and is instantly put off. Bonus points when Tamahome makes a spiteful comment about her cooking, and EXTRA bonus points when, after Miaka leaves upset, he eats everything she cooked at the cost of getting a nasty stomachache.

However, she is able to brew and serve tea to him just about every day, and a third party notes after drinking it that she seems to have refined it for his specific tastes.

Gilligan's Island: In "X Marks the Spot", the Castaways hear an announcement on the radio that a warhead is going to be test-launched at the island. When Mary Ann is reconsidering her life after the news, she makes Gilligan and the Skipper each two pies to make up for not being as nice as she feels she should have. Both of them insist she has nothing to worry about, but they're happy to have the pies. Then the Skipper insists Gilligan take one of his to make up for his constant yelling at him...after Gilligan has already eaten two.

In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine:
"The Way of the Warrior" begins with Captain Sisko welcoming his girlfriend Kasidy Yates back to the station with a gift and an extensive romantic dinner that is, unfortunately, interrupted very quickly.
When Kasidy and Ben are married, Sisko is shown throughout to, unusually for Star Trek, prefer cooking real food rather than eating out of a replicator, largely because his father is a chef. Kasidy tries to cook for him and burns the peppers he'd been growing for months, then agrees that she's best off leaving the cooking to him.

×××HOLiC: Because Watanuki's such a Tsundere that he can't bring himself to properly give a verbal "thank-you", whenever he wants to "pay back" any favors Doumeki gives him (such as saving his life numerous times), he'll usually cook Doumeki's favorite foods or take requests to cook something Doumeki wants (most often with Doumeki making some ridiculous request that's impossible). Okay, so despite the fact he's Mr. Stoic, it's pretty obvious Doumeki already really really likes Watanuki, but the cooking definitely seems to make him want to stick around Watanuki even more. In fact, a lot of shipping fodder moments between them occur with them bantering and arguing about Watanuki's cooking.

Rebuild World: Played with. Sheryl's first progress with Akira after falling for him, with him having been extremely cold to her thanks to his Sugar-and-Ice Personality, is when she sets up a hot sandwich stand and feeds him, with Akira suddenly becoming warm and filled with praise for her, as much for it being a Snacksploitation scheme, which actually sets up the theme in their interactions of her cunning being what impresses him. This scene also starts a Running Gag with good food being The Paranoiac Akira’s Mundane Luxury weakness that makes him let his guard down out of happiness, which eventually prompts his Eccentric Mentor Kibayashi to warn him about Tampering with Food and Drink.

Our Miss Brooks:
This was attempted by Miss Brooks in "Home Cooked Meal", in the hopes of getting Mr. Boynton to propose. Mrs. Davis cooks a turkey, brings it over to Mr. Boynton's, while Miss Brooks attempts to warm it up in Mr. Boynton's new oven. Unfortunately, the automatic burner-lighters hadn't yet been installed . . . Hilarity Ensues.
An earlier attempt to get Mr. Boynton to propose was in the radio episode "Weekend at Crystal Lake". Mrs. Conklin suggests that Miss Brooks barbeque ribs for dinner. Alas, Miss Brooks doesn't know a thing about barbequing and cooks (burns, that is) the ribs by placing them under the charcoal.

From Maison Ikkoku, Kyoko is thoughtfully providing lunches for Godai as he job-hunts. At least, she thinks he's job-hunting. He's really being forced to Work Off the Debt at a nightclub.

Magick Chicks had this twice: Faith made some food twice for Tiffany, who saved her from an enraged vampire — which was Faith's own fault — by giving her own blood, and got drained too much — which also was entirely Faith's fault — both to fix blood loss and to seduce her. But she is a terrible cook. (To be fair, liver and spinach are common Stock Yucks, which may be more of a factor than her cooking skill.) Jacqui later made some waffles for her fallback boyfriend (and Faith's brother) Paul.

Collar × Malice:
Okazaki enjoys Ichika's baking, especially since he doesn't know how to cook, let alone know how to properly prepare tea.
Enomoto was in pure bliss when Ichika invited him to breakfast at her house. He soon started fantasying to himself that they were married as he was repeatedly praising her food and asking for seconds.
A variation where Sasazuka offers food to people he likes despite vocally claiming they are annoyances to him. It's most noticeable in his route where he offers donuts, chocolates and appetizers to Ichika whether to praise her for doing a good job or a means to cheer her up.
Yanagi is noted by many characters to be an excellent cook. Ichika cannot help but thoroughly gush over the simple meal he prepared for her.

Murdoch Mysteries
Mrs Brackenreid is acknowledged as a very good cook. She's sometimes seen cooking and bringing food for her husband, trying to appease him or indulge him. In "Kung Fu Crabtree", she cooks Chinese dinner for her family. Inspector stays at work because he prefers English food (beef or pudding) but she brings him his dinner in a basket to the office. He happens to love it and some of the spices happened to be aphrodisiac... In one episode, she cooks a special feast with all her husband's favorites for their anniversary.
Enid Jones, a young widow courted by Detective Murdoch, bakes cake for Detective Murdoch as a thank you gift for helping to find her son, and she later brings him some food when he's sick and she even spoonfeeds him.

Pointedly played with in NCIS, where Ziva cooks for everyone except Tony. He is stunned that she's holding dinner parties for absolutely everyone else they work with, including the "autopsy gremlin!" Eventually, she promises to cook for him, but we never see any of the scenes. For more information, see "Boxed In" from Season 3; Ziva's decision to cook for Tony is a result of them spending the episode Locked in a Room.

The Al Brodax Popeye cartoon "Duel to the Finish", which in spite of its title is devoid of inherent violence, has Olive trying to make Popeye jealous by wooing Wimpy. And what obvious way to woo Wimpy than through his stomach. Popeye laughs off Wimpy's flattering of Olive (using culinary metaphors) until he hears Olive kiss Wimpy. Popeye challenges him to a duel, and Wimpy chooses an eating duel. After so many hamburgers, Popeye concedes, unable to eat any more, but then Wimpy concedes Olive to him after he hears her say she can't cook another thing.

Darker than Black interquel manga had one of bonus chapters built upon two outstanding traits of the protagonist: being a Big Eater and Chick Magnet at the same time. It was one glorious Cooking Duel involving just about every female character from both seasons of anime.

Mat Cauthon of The Wheel of Time believes that if you get a woman to start feeding you, she is halfway won. He happens to be right.

A hilarious version in The Lucifer and Biscuit Hammer: Sami makes a meal, that turns somewhat lethal. She doesn't finish eating it, and tells Yuuhi that he doesn't have to either, but the man gobbles it up like nectar from the gods (and pays for it later).
During the finale, it's found that Yayoi cooks (large) lunches for her husband, even hand delivering them.

This is an area where Betty always wins over Veronica.
Big Ethel tries this all the time on Jughead. He's certainly willing to tolerate her presence when food is forthcoming, but it never gets her any closer to a date (unless you count the time it takes him to eat, and considering it's Jughead that can't be very long).

Done in One Piece at the end of the Alabasta saga. So what does a now world famous pirate want for saving an entire country and defeating one of the most dangerous people in world? Luffy only wants to be fed until he explodes. Vivi and Terracota manage to succeed which is a miracle in itself.
In a gender inversion, amorous chef Sanji prepares special food and beverages for whatever beautiful women he can find, shrugging off even his captain until the needs of the women are met. He clearly implies that he does this to win their affections. But at the same time, Sanji will never refuse anyone a meal if they're starving, even if that person could be a potential threat to him such as Gin.

Mimpi Metropolitan: Prima tries to get close to Ada Azab Dalam Cerita star Clarabel by doing this twice. It doesn't work and Clarabel doesn't even remember him when they meet again post-AADC.
In Episode 4, Prima tries to get close to Clarabel by giving her a bottle of coffee like the one she gave to him the previous day. Too bad the reason Clarabel gave it was because she doesn't like it, so she gives Prima's coffee to Akbar.
In Episode 6, Prima buy Clarabel some gado-gado from Pipin's shop because he overhears that she wants some. It backfires badly since Prima gets demoted for leaving Ada Azab Dalam Cerita filming location and Clarabel no longer wants gado-gado by the time Prima gives it to her.

Rebuild of Evangelion 2.0 has a surprisingly detailed and extended focus on cooking. Shinji is a good cook, and proves it during a field trip. Rei, hoping to reunite Shinji and Gendo, invites both of them to a dinner party where she will cook. Seeing Rei practice cooking makes Asuka jealous, and she, too, takes up the ladle and attempts to learn (though she is incredibly embarrassed when this is found out). A later scene proves that Rei is a far more dedicated learner than Asuka, as proven by the bandage count on their fingers.

An inordinate amount of time in Fate/stay night seems to be spent on cooking, so much so that there is actually a cooking themed spin off (Today's Menu for the Emiya Family). Shirou, Rin and Sakura can cook (different styles, but they can all cook). Taiga can't. Saber mainly just eats.
Sakura is the one actually trying for this trope with Shirou. It's somewhat ironic, considering that he's the one who taught her how to cook. Still, she eagerly learns as much as she can, from him and on her own, and he proudly acknowledges that she's managed to surpass him.
Kohaku uses this method to get closer to Saber in Battle Moon Wars after Shiro warns her not to over do it because Saber will never forget a meal. She does the exact opposite.

In March Comes in Like a Lion, Hina's attempts to get closer to Takahashi involve winning him over with meals that she cooked. Her first attempt ends in failure due to her shyness hindering her ability to give it after his game...which is probably for the best. The second attempt, with the advice from Akari, is a curry rice meal topped with kaarage and onsen egg. She fares much better.

Gunslinger Girl
In a scene where the girls are discussing Elsa, an aloof cyborg who refuses to socialize with the other girls, the equally aloof Claes brings some cake she's made to the table to share with them, showing the difference between the two.
While on holiday in Sicily, Henrietta prepares a meal but has no idea that what she's preparing is barely adequate until the adult Section One agent Elenora convinces her to add more ingredients. It shows Henrietta is playing at being an adult but has no idea what to do, as she's never learned to cook for her own enjoyment.
Petra complains to her handler Sandro that she doesn't know what food he likes or hates, because when you like someone you know that kind of thing about them. Sandro shuts down the subject by admitting that he hates...redheads (whereupon Petra pointblank refuses to dye her hair).
Jean Croce's backstory shows him being presented with a Sicilian orange by Sophia Durante, a female soldier who's fallen in Love at First Sight with the handsome aloof officer. He responds by throwing it in her face. Then after winning Jean over, Sophia cooks pizza for his little sister Enrica who starts acting like a jerkass to her as well.

In Nip and Tuck, visiting ex-military man Corporal Bo wonders why all the local ladies keep bringing him food. Nip uses the Trope Naming expression word for word. Somewhat inverted; while Corporal Bo goes on to marry, his bride isn't one of the local girls who fed him.
A few strips later, Nip and Tuck's mother gives Bo the parental version as well; chicken and biscuits, all homemade.

Jimmy Two-Shoes: Heloise attempts this on a semi-regular basis to win Jimmy's affections, including snacks "whipped up from scratch" and two very complete picnics (Beezy and Cerbee ruined the first). For an independent career woman, Heloise takes a surprising amount of pride in her cooking skills.

Subverted in Betsy-Tacy. Betsy claims that Tib's stolid German cooking would be a disillusioning experience for any boy, no matter how good the food is. Further subverted by the fact that Betsy herself only learns how to cook after marriage, with her husband doing most of the cooking before.

In I Wish, this trope gets coupled with Love Epiphany. K tells Wye that the master never taught him anything about love, until he recalls a time he ran away from his home. The master found him and asked if K wasn't hungry, which moved K to tears. This leads to him asking Lyu-Jin if she's hungry, pointing to a table full of food that he has cooked — and Lyu-Jin is moved to tears, realizing that he loved her, and she was in love with him.

In The Hunger Games trilogy, Katniss really loves to eat, and she's particularly fond of Peeta's cheese buns, which he brings her all the time in Catching Fire (despite the fact that things are still pretty awkward between them, and she's now rich enough to just buy bread). This trope is almost subverted to begin with, though: when they were younger, Peeta caught a beating from his mother to provide Katniss with two loaves of bread that saved her and her mother and sister from starvation... and she so loathed the debt she felt towards him that she avoided him until the games forced them together. It's played straight as a manifestation of his character, though.
In the movie, Peeta felt immense guilt over tossing her the bread (as opposed to taking it to her) way back when Katniss and her family were starving, because he later felt like he was treating her like a starving dog (Katniss herself couldn't care less about that and is rather oblivious to his feelings regarding the matter.)

Ted Lasso: In the episode "Biscuits", Ted invokes a more platonic version of this trope with "Biscuits with the Boss", a new tradition where he takes a box of shortbread biscuits to his new boss Rebecca every morning so they can get to know each other better. Rebecca initially tries to refuse the biscuits, but then she tries one and is shocked by how delicious they are. She later has Higgins search every bakery in the area to find out where Ted got the biscuits, but it's revealed at the end of the episode that Ted makes them himself. "Biscuits with the Boss" continues throughout the series, and Rebecca becomes more openly appreciative of them as she warms up to Ted.

In Little Busters!, this comes up a few times: Haruka cooks for Riki multiple times in her route, partially to earn his affection and is really distressed when she realises that he's been unknowingly eating Kanata's food as well, and even preferred hers. Kurugaya also offers to make bento for Riki, though after they've started going out. Masato turns it around — his idea for how a guy should confess to a girl is to just go up to her and declare 'from tomorrow, you're going to be making me bento every day!' All of his demonstrations of this line fail, however.

Unsolved Mysteries: Fritz and the Soldiers featured a story about a young boy whose mother sheltered a few German and American soldiers under her roof, convincing them to leave their weapons aside and have the soup she was cooking. They entertained her son and one of the Germans even looked at a wound on a American's soldier and offered his recommendations and later all looked up at the stars before retiring to bed. 50 some years later, the grown-up Fritz reunited with one of them on the GI's own Golden Anniversary, where they had the soup they shared long ago.

Ensemble Stars! has quite a few (generally) platonic examples:
Souma is a very skilled cook who often prepares food for his friends — his management conversation with Keito features him talking about how happy it makes him to know that he can please other people with his cooking. In particular, Kanata often asks him to cook fish for him, which works out very well given that Souma is always looking for things he can do to help him out. And in Greek Legends he offers to make bento boxes for his friend Adonis given that the latter often only eats anpan for lunch.
Kuro also often cooks, particularly for his beloved younger sister and his karate club junior Tetora. On the other hand, Tetora would like to cook for Kuro, but he's a Lethal Chef so he has a lot of practicing to do before he can.
Ritsu likes to bake, but while his creations are inevitably delicious, they always look awful, so people are usually very reluctant at first to try anything he makes.
Hajime, on top of knowing a great deal about making tea, also bakes, particularly for his Tea Club seniors to eat during together club meetings; they are always very happy to enjoy the efforts of their cute and hard-working junior.

In Colorful (2010), Makoto's mother spends most of the film making homemade meals, much of which the main character refuses to eat because of his resentment towards her. Mitsuru yells at him about this toward the end of the film, as before Makoto had tried to commit suicide, she always bought prepackaged meals, and is now putting in far more effort that he is cruelly refusing.

Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun: Kashima attempts to appeal to her beloved senpai Hori by secretly making a cake for him (he doesn't like being given homemade food so she pretends she bought it). The approach she uses for this plan is hilariously unromantic (for example her asking a coworker to keep it a secret makes it sound like she's whipping up drugs). She makes brandy cake, and Hori ends up eating most of it. The problem? Hori turns out to have really bad alcohol tolerance and so ends up drunk.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses plays with this in two ways: You can raise your Support Points with other characters by eating meals with them in the mess hall, with greater gains earned if you choose one of their favorite foods. You can also have other characters help out in the kitchen once a month to cook a meal to provide your army with a temporary stat boost. Selecting someone who's good at cooking (such as Mercedes, Dedue, or Ashe) will also increase their Support Points significantly, while choosing a Lethal Chef (or someone who hates to cook, like Hanneman) won't give you any additional benefit.

The Quintessential Quintuplets uses the trope in a roundabout way with two of the titular quintuplets. Nino is a Supreme Chef, but given that she started out on the wrong foot with Fuutarou, she tends to use her cooking in order to distract him or otherwise get away from studying. Miku, on the other hand, quickly takes to like Fuutarou and despite being a Lethal Chef decides to try and learn to cook well in order to gain his affection. Character Development leads to Nino falling for Fuutarou and begin to use the trope for real, while Miku manages to make pretty good dishes, and is almost as good as Nino by the series' end.

Inspired by the cooking war going on over Yuji, Whilhelmina tries to do this for Shana. It doesn't turn out well- apparently Ninja Maid can't cook. So much for "Specialist of Everything".

In Sumia and Chrom's supports, she bakes him a series of savory pies (a bento in the Japanese version) in hopes of both winning his heart and help him outside the battlefield. If she's married, her "gift" reply to her husband on an event tile is her showing him that she has made lunch for him... even if she dropped it twice — this event shows up regardless of who said husband is note (Chrom, boy!Avatar, Frederick, Gaius or Henry), so it shows that she cooks for all of her love interests.
Kellam can have two girls cooking for him... not bad or a guy who's often forgotten. On one hand, Lissa bakes him a "rainbow-filled" pie but it doesn't go that well. On the other, Olivia makes rock candy for him with some honey that he brought her before and it works much better.
Gaius invokes the trope several times too. He tries to win the aforementioned Olivia's heart with pies and proposes to her via hiding a ring inside a tart he baked for her, helps Lissa improve her cooking, and a good part of his supports with Sumia include their Epic Fail at finding honey for pies. (She manages to bake him a cake in the end.) In his own "gift" dialogue with a girlfriend has him saying he's baked a treat for her.
Stahl wins Panne's trust and affection over by trying to come up with meals she can enjoy with the others. This one's quite justified: being a Taguel instead of a human (meaning she has the dietary needs of a rabbit, the animal that the Taguel are based from), there are several things that Panne simply cannot eat, lest she'll get sick or even die.
As a Ninja Maid, Cherche is said to be a pretty good cook too. Her ending with Stahl has him actually gaining weight from eating all of her delicious food.
Mixed gender example: the Avatar (whether male or female) makes a carrot stew for the aforementioned Panne. S/he is a Lethal Chef. Panne loves it anyway.
The male Avatar starts cooking for Nah in their A Support after seeing that her diet consists of little more than berries, leaves, and roots. She greatly appreciates the gesture because in the Bad Future, where Nah was raised by scornful foster parents, food was scarce, which was especially a problem for a half-dragon like Nah, as manaketes require far more food than humans to survive.
Tharja, in her attempts to get closer to the Avatar (regardless of gender), tries her hand at "acting normal" and cooks their favorite meal: liver-and-eel pie. The Avatar is taken aback by Tharja's drastic change in personality (even saying that they preferred her old habits), but they DO find the pie in itself to be delicious.
Tharja's daughter Noire is an excellent baker. Her supports with Owain show her baking for him, and if she supports with a Male Avatar who's not her dad he agrees to go out in a date with her to taste her cakes.
The "gift" reply from event tiles involving Cordelia's daughter Severa have her giving her lover something she baked for him. Being a tsundere, she immediately tells him "don't you DARE complain about the taste!"
Sully and Cynthia mention in some of their supports that the village girls often give them savory pies with cream (Sully) and sweet cakes (Cynthia) to show their admiration for them.
In Lon'qu and Cordelia's supports, it's revealed that Cordelia often cooks dinner for the army with this trope in mind.

Parodied in the Captain Tsubasa original anime. Sanae is trying to gather her courage to ask Tsubasa out and decides to bring him sandwiches... but while he does like her food, he totally misses her advances. Being a tsundere, she finally gets fed up and goes away, with Tsubasa being all "... WTF?!"
Played straight in the re-introduction of the Furano team. The two managers, Yoshiko and Machiko, bring home-made drinks for the guys; Machiko immediately tells Yoshiko to go to the team captain, Matsuyama, and give him his drink first while she handles the rest, clearly thinking of the present trope since Yoshiko and Matsuyama are Twice Shy.

Saiyuki: several examples
Goku in general takes an instant liking to people who give him food, and for that matter, an instant dislike to those who take food away.
Hakkai is the team cook, being the only one who can actually make anything edible this might be more a common sense arrangement. There's a flashback episode revolving around snow and the four of them eating sukiyaki together
There's a filler episode in reload about a Lethal Chef (literally) trying to cook for her fiance.

In Battle Royale, Noriko bakes cookies to give to Shuya, who she has a huge crush on. Unfortunately for her, it doesn't have the effect she really wants, since Yoshi (who has a huge crush on Noriko) ends up taking the cookies and eating them.

Sword Art Online: Before attempting to get her crush, the notoriously-solo player Kirito, to join her party, Asuna cooks him a meal with an S-class ingredient. Sure enough, he is exploring the latest dungeon with her, and only her, and Klein even congratulates him for being "ensnared by feminine wiles". Later volumes continue this trend with him loving every food she makes for him.

A big theme in Sing "Yesterday" for Me:
Shinako spends all her time making food for Rou and his father. Rou takes this as a sign of her interest in him, and proudly shows off her homemade bentos to his friends at school, only to be chastened when a friend also has a homemade bento, made by his mom. In one scene, Rou demands she keeps cooking for him after he goes to college, drawing parallels with how he demands her love. This contrasts him with Rikuo, who is grateful and determined to repay Shinako for her food (and love).
Similarly, Haru shows her love for Rikuo by spontaneously bringing him food from her workplace. She finally becomes convinced that he's not into her first when he is underwhelmed by the breakfast she makes him, and then when she finds him with Shinako after rushing to bring him a cake she made at work.

Hilariously played with in Martian Successor Nadesico. The girls who are after Akito (already a decent cook in his own right, and the reason he joined the crew in the first place) try to compete for his affections through a Cooking Duel... and they're all really bad at it.

In The Secret Agreement, the first time Iori meets Yuuichi he is eating mitarashi dango, and Iori asks to try. He nearly eats the entire thing, over which Yuuichi feels resentful at the time. Later in life he views it more optimistically as "it only took three-quarters of a mitarashi dango to make you mine."

A recurring theme throughout SHUFFLE! is that all of Rin's potential girlfriends try to win him over by cooking. Despite this, it is a coincidence that the best cook ends up winning him over. In the anime, when he stops eating Kaede's food, it is a sign that he is neglecting her. And we know where that brings us.

Friends:
It's pretty clear through the course of the show that cooking is the way Monica shows her love for all her friends, making it a platonic version of the trope. She absolutely loves being "the perfect hostess". One of the flashbacks in the series reveals that an infatuated Monica was convinced to become a chef after she made some macaroni and cheese for Chandler and he told her that she should become one.
Phoebe once imagines a possible future where Monica is married to a very visibly overweight Joey instead of Chandler. She cooks for him and feeds him with delight.

Babylon 5:
Played for Laughs in "Sic Transit Vir," where Captain Sheridan attempts to cook Minbari food for Delenn. She's absolutely delighted... until she actually tastes it.
Garibaldi relates to Doctor Franklin a story about Garibaldi's father, a gourmet chef, who would make his specialty of bagna cauda for Garibaldi's birthday day every year as a special nonverbal "I love you" from father to son. Garibaldi now cooks the dish himself for his birthday to remember his father. Franklin is moved enough to suspend Garibaldi's food plan and authorize the meal, and invite himself. Later episodes imply this started a trend of Garibaldi and Franklin having dinner with Garibaldi cooking.

In Harry and the Shipgirls, Akizuki, Teruzuki, and Hatsuzuki, as per their lines in the game, will insist on letting capital ships get the majority of their food, and they'll just have whatever's left. This spawned a Running Gag dubbed "Ducky Stuffing", where Harry would insist on having the trio eat large meals until they were well and truly full. To absolutely no one's surprise, the Duckies are confirmed to be part of Harry's future Battle Harem.
