Hey everybody and welcome to Leia’s Lair.
In today’s video we will be counting down the Top 10 weirdest food and drinks in Star Wars Canon.
Number 10: Portion Bread
We see Portion Bread in the Force Awakens when Rey trades in her scraps for ¼ position. When
she returns home, she just adds water to the dust and poof she has a fluffy, doughy loaf. While it
probably has little nutritional value, it actually looks pretty tasty and was probably a delicacy
for Rey. It is essentially a military ration which is why she is able to make it instantly.
Number 9: Roasted Porg
We see Roasted Porg in the Last Jedi attempting to be eaten by Chewbacca.
The concept is a little bit morbid considering how cute the Porg’s that hang around Atch-To
are and the fact that they are watching Chewie eat their comrade. The roasted
porg is essentially like roasted chicken and it honestly looks delicious. It literally looks like
it just came off of rotisseries and is probably one of the most normal looking foods in Star Wars.
Number 8: Bantha Milk
We first see Bantha Milk, known more commonly as Blue Milk, in Episode 4 when Aunt Beru sets
the table with cups filled with the liquid. As you guessed based on its name, Bantha
milk comes from those furry yak like creatures that live on Tatooine. We really don’t get an
inkling of how it tastes, but it can’t be too bad considering Luke and his family were drinking it.
Honestly, I imagine it being just like regular cow’s milk but with a much more fun color.
Number 7: Colo Claw Fish
We first see Colo Claw Fish in Solo when Dryden Vos offers the egg-like treat to
Han Solo and Q’ira. Considered a delicacy, it is essentially caviar with an egg yolk on top.
I can’t say that the combination has any particular appeal to me personally,
but I would guess it tasted pretty good to Han and Q’ira. It also probably costs a pretty penny.
Number 6: Yoda’s Rootleaf Stew
We first see Yoda’s rootleaf stew in Episode 5 when Luke finds him on Dagobah. Kudos to
Yoda for being able to make something edible from the swamps of the planet.
Rootleaf stew is essentially made from boiling swamp weed and roots for 10 minutes.
I think what makes it sound even worse is the fact that it has a sour taste. It was
however Yoda’s favorite food on Dagobah, and probably helped keep him moving for many years/
Number 5: Grogu’s Chowder
We see Grogu’s s chowder in the second season of the Mandalorian while he and Mando are on
the Estuary Moon of Trask. It is a thick, beige soup, and at first it actually looks quite tasty,
kind of like a nice clam chowder. What makes it something I would never dare to try
is the fact that there is a ferocious cephalopod inside that can jump on your face. No thanks.
Number 4: Spotchka
We first see Spotchka in the first season of the Mandalorian, while Mando and the Child Grogu are
on the planet Sorgen. It is a beautiful blue colored beverage that looks like it would be
refreshing to drink. However, it was made out of the creatures known as krill which were small
crustaceans. Therefore, as nice as the color was, I can’t begin to wonder what the taste wouldbe.
Number 3: Thala Siren milk
We see Thala Siren Milk, also known as Green Milk, in the Last Jedi when Luke guzzles it down and let
me tell you, it probably wouldn’t be something I’d like to try. Thala-Sirens are those manatee
looking aliens that Luke Skywalker pastures around in the beach cliffs of Ahch-To. The thing is,
not only is green tint in a milk beverage not exactly the most appetizing, the way Luke let
it stream down his beard was just gross. Again, I can’t say how it would taste,
but seeing as Luke takes it as his breakfast, it is at least probably pretty nutritious.
Number 2: Klatooine Paddy Frog
Klatooine Paddy frogs were first seen being eaten by Jabba the Hutt
in Return of the Jedi. One of Jabba’s favourite snacks, these creatures were pretty freaking
looking. They had a green lower body, reddish brown head, opaque eyes and external gills.
What makes them super weird and unappetizing to me outside of their appearance alone is the fact
that just before being eaten, when the creature panicked, it started high pitch screaming. That
doesn’t bother Jabba though, he just dips them in flavored brandy to suppress them.
Number 1: Jawa Juice
We first see Jawa Juice, also known as Ardees, in Attack of the Clones when Obi-Wan is visiting
Dex’s diner. Unfortunately we dont get to see what it looks like, but Jawa juice was
a beverage from Tatooine that was made out of bantha hide mashed with fermented grains.
It literally sounds so gross, and I can’t believe our beloved Obi-wan drank it.
I guess he was destined for a life on Tatooine afterall.
Bonus: Unfertilized Frog Eggs
A bonus we just want to throw in here because they are super weird, but we didn’t have room on are
list, are the unfertilized frog eggs that Grogu eats in the second season of the Mandalorian.It's
hard to imagine what these taste like but Grogu sure loves them when he is chowing down.
Enough so that he goes back for seconds on more than one occasion.
And there you have it! Thanks for watching everyone. What do you think
