The Daily Grind: What in-game food do you wish you could eat?

I'll admit it, I'm oddly fascinated with food in MMOs. It's not just because boars are -- for whatever reason -- carrying fully cooked casseroles around. It's not even because our characters don't seem to eat for sustenance but rather gorge themselves for temporary stats. And it surely goes beyond the fact that we can eat whatever we want and never, ever get fat.

No, I'm fascinated with MMO food because it always seems so dang tasty. Those cute little icons with their rump roasts and their bacon 'n' eggs... those tantalizing descriptions of how the stew emits an aroma of heady pleasure... the animations that your character goes through as he chows down on hearty fare. I've always wondered what these foods taste like, which is perhaps why I'm captivated by the cooking posts over at A Casual Stroll to Mordor.

So if you are odd like I am and have occasionally wished that you could reach into your game and pull out a food, what would it be and why?
