Fictional foods

Can there really only be fifteen fictional foods?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Fictional_foods

Somehow I doubt it...

There was a whole Babylon 5 cookbook, with instructions on how to make alien dishes.

Oh, and there was a Farscape cookbook too, with instructions on how to make even more bizarre alien dishes.

Off the top of my head, I can think of:

- All the other chocolates in the Crunchy Frog sketch
- All the other candies from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
- Everything from Dahl's Revolting Recipes
- "His liver with fava beans and a nice chianti". Not sure this counts, as it technically exists.
- XT-3 from H. Beam Piper
- Gagh from Star Trek
- Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans
- Turkish Delight, which I resolutely refuse to believe actually exists
- Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs

Klingon Gagh, Bajoran Hasperat and a load of other Star Trek foods and that's just one 'verse.

There are probably only fifteen fictional foods which have survived Wikipedia's notability requirements thus far.

Wookieepedia has over 200 foods from Star Wars spinoffs alone:

To get into the category, someone has to add the tag to the individual entry.

There will be more than, but till an "editor" (i.e. a contributor who is not on the Wiki-Cabal's black-list, whereby whatever they add is deleted asap) goes to the individual entry and adds the tag ([[Category:fictional foods]]) they won't show up on the category page.
