       Black Bread
       QUOTE:
       The great merchant galleys of Port Kar, and Cos, and Tyros, and
       other maritime powers, utilized thousands of such miserable
       wretches, fed on brews of peas and black bread, chained in the
       rowing holds, under the whips of slave masters, their lives
       measured by feedings and beatings and the labor of the oar.
       ---Hunters of Gor, p 13
       REGION: A bread served to crews on ships.
       Bosk
       QUOTE:
       He sat,cross-legged,behind the low table. On it were hot
       bread,yellow and fresh, hot black wine, steaming, with its
       sugars, slices of roast bosk, the scrambled eggs of vulos,
       pastries with creams and custards".....

       The meat was a steak cut from the loin, a huge shaggy long
       horned bovine, meat is seared, as thick as the forearm of a
       Warrior on a small iron grill on a kindling of charcoal
       cylinders so that the thin margin on the outside was black,
       crisp and flaky sealed within by the touch of the fire-the blood
       rich flesh hot and fat with juice
       ---Outlaw of Gor, p 45
       REGION: Plains, served throughout much of Gor through trade
       agreements with Wagon Peoples.

       Cheese
       QUOTE:
       In the cafes I had feasted well. I had had verr meat, cut in
       chunks and threaded on a metal rod, with slices of peppers and
       larma, and roasted; vulo stew with raisins, nuts, onions and
       honey; a kort with melted cheese and nutmeg;hot Bazi tea,

       Cherries
       QUOTE:
       With the tip of my tongue I touched her lips. Some slave
       cosmetics are flavored. "Does Master enjoy my taste?" she asked.
       "The lipstick is flavored," I said. "I know," she said. "It
       reminds me of the cherries of Tyros," I said.

       Chokecherry
       QUOTE:
       Crushed fruit, usually chokecherries, is then added to the meat.
       The whole, then, is mixed with, and fixed by, kailiauk fat,
       subsequently, usually, being divided into small, flattish,
       rounded cakes. The fruit sugars make this, in its way, a quick
       energy food, while the meat, of course, supplies valuable, long
       lasting stamina protein.

       Cinnamon
       QUOTE:
       "Do you smell it?" asked Ulafi. "Yes," I said. "It is cinnamon
       and cloves, is it not?" "Yes," said Ulafi, "and other spices, as
       well."
       ---Explorers of Gor p 98
       REGION: Schendi - traded throughout much of Gor

       Corn
       Many of the tribes permit small agricultural communities to
       exist within their domains, she said. The individuals in these
       communities are bound to the soil and owned collectively by the
       tribes within whose lands they are permitted to live. They grow
       produce for their masters such as wagmeza and wagmu, maize or
       corn, and such things as pumpkins and squash.

       Cosian Wingfish
       QUOTE:
       Now this, Saphrar the merchant was telling me, is the braised
       liver of the blue, four-spines Cosian wingfish.
       This fish is a tiny, delicate fish, blue, about the size of a
       tarn disk when curled in one's hand; it has three or four
       slender spines in its dorsal fin, which are poisonous; it is
       capable of hurling itself from the water and, for brief
       distances, on its stiff pectoral fins, gliding through the air,
       usually to evade the smaller sea-tharlarions, which seem to be
       immune to the poison of spines. This fish is also sometimes
       referred to as the songfish because, as a portion of its
       courtship rituals, the males and females thrust their heads from
       the water and utter a sort of whistling sound.
       The blue, four-spined wingfish is found only in the waters of
       Cos. Larger varieties are found farther out to sea. The small
       blue fish is regarded as a great delicacy, and its liver as the
       delicacies of delicacies.
       ---Nomads of Gor, p 23
       REGION: in the waters of Cos
       Dates
       QUOTE:
       The principal export of the oases are dates and pressed-date
       bricks. Some of the date palms grow to more than a hundred feet
       high. It takes ten years before they begin to bear fruit. They
       will then yield fruit for more than a century. A given tree,
       annually, yields between one and five Gorean weights of fruit. A
       weight is some ten stone, or some forty Earth pounds.
       ---Tribesmen of Gor, 2:37
       REGION: Tor - traded throughout much of Gor (exported)
       Eel
       QUOTE:
       Clitus, too, had brought two bottles of Ka-la-na wine, a string
       of eels, cheese of the Verr and a sack of red olives from the
       groves of Tyros.
       ---Raiders of Gor, p 114
       REGION: Port Kar - dried eels are an export item.
       Eggs - vulo eggs
       QUOTE:

       Soon, I smelled the frying of vulo eggs in a large, flat pan…

       Flour
       QUOTE:
       There were several yards of sausages hung on hooks; numerous
       canisters of flour, sugars, and salts; many smaller containers
       of spices and condiments.

       REGION:
       Gant
       QUOTE:
       Before the feast I had helped the women, cleaning fish and
       dressing marsh gants, and then, later, turning spits for the
       roasted tarsks, roasted over rence-root fires, kept on metal
       pans, elevated above the rence of the islands by metal racks,
       themselves resting on larger pans.
       ---Raiders of Gor, p 44
       I heard a bird some forty or fifty yards to my right; it sounded
       like a marsh gant, a small, horned, web-footed aquatic fowl,
       broad-billed and broad-winged. Marsh girls, the daughters of
       Rence growers, sometimes hunt them with throwing sticks.
       ---Raiders of Gor, p 4

       Garlic
       QUOTE:
       I have peas and turnips, garlic and onions in my hut.

       Honey
       QUOTE:

       chunks and threaded on a metal rod, with slices of peppers and
       larma, and roasted; vulo stew with raisins, nuts, onions and
       honey; a kort with melted cheese and nutmeg;hot Bazi tea,
       sugared, and, later, Turian wine.
       pg. 47, Tribesman of Gor
       I saw small fruit trees, and hives, where honey bees were
       raised; and there were small sheds, here and there, with sloping
       roofs of boards; in some such sheds might craftsmen work, in
       others fish might be dried or butter made.
       ---Marauders of Gor, p 81
       REGION:
       Jerky
       QUOTE:
       Strips of kailiauk meat, thinly sliced and dried on poles in the
       sun, are pounded fine, almost to a powder. Crushed fruit,
       usually chokecherries, is then added to the meat. The whole,
       then, is mixed with, and fixed by, kailiauk fat, subsequently,
       usually, being divided into small, flattish, rounded cakes. The
       fruit sugars make this, in its way, a quick energy food, while
       the meat, of course, supplies valuable, long lasting stamina
       protein. This, like the dried meat, or jerky, from which it is
       made, can be eaten either raw or cooked. It is not uncommon for
       both to be carried in hunting or on war parties. Children will
       also carry it in their play. The thin slicing of the meat not
       only abets its preservation, effected by time, the wind and sun,
       but makes it impractical for flies to lay their eggs in it.
       Jerky and pemmican, which is usually eaten cooked in the
       villages, is generally boiled. In these days a trade pot or
       kettle is normally used. In the old days it was prepared by
       stone-boiling.

       Kailiauk
       QUOTE:
       "The red savages depend for their very lives on the kailiauk"
       said Kog. "He is the major source of their food and life.His
       meat and hide, his bones and sinew, sustain them. From him they
       derive not only food but clothing and shelter, tools and
       weapons.

       Kalana fruit
       QUOTE:
       I picked some Ka-la-na fruit and opened one of the packages of
       rations. Talena returned and sat beside me on the grass. I
       shared the food with her.
       ---Tarnsman of Gor, 8:
       'I'm hungry,' she said.
       'I am, too,' I laughed, suddenly aware that I had not eaten
       anything since the night before. I was ravenous. 'Over there,' I
       said, 'are some Ka-la-na trees. Wait here and I'll gather some
       fruit.'

       QUOTE:
       After the meal I tasted the drink, which might not

       First she boiled and simmered a kettle of Sullage, a common
       Gorean soup consisting of three standard ingredients, and, as it
       is said, whatever else may be found, saving only the rocks of
       the field. The principal ingredients of Sullage are the golden
       Sul, …the curled, red, ovate leaves of the Tur-Pah, a tree

       Larma
       QUOTE:
       He then picked up a juicy, red larma fruit, biting into it with
       a sound that seemed partly crunching as he went through the
       shell, partly squishing as he bit into the fleshy, segmented
       endocarp.
       ---Nomads of Gor, 19
       I took a slice of hard larma from the tray. This is a firm,
       single-seeded applelike fruit. It is quite unlike the segmented,
       juicy larma. It is sometimes called, perhaps more aptly, the pit
       fruit, because of its large single stone.
       ---Players of Gor, p 267
       The larma is luscious. It has a rather hard shell but the shell
       is brittle and easily broken. Within, the fleshy endocarp, the
       fruit, is delicious and very juicy.
       ---Renegades of Gor, p 437
       Another device, common in Port Kar, is for the girl to kneel
       before the master and put her head down and lift her arms,
       offering him fruit, usually a larma, or a yellow Gorean peach,
       ripe and fresh.

       On the tray too, was the metal vessel which contained black
       wine, steaming and bitter from far Thentis, famed for its tarn
       flocks, the small yellow-enamled cups from which we had drunk
       the black wine, its spoons and sugars, a tiny bowl of mint

       Suddenly her wrist was seized by the girl, a tall, lovely girl,
       some four inches taller than she, in a brief white rag, who
       stood with her at the basket. “Who are you?” demanded the girl
       in the white rag. “You are not one with us.” She took the pear
       from her, with the verr cheese in it.

       QUOTE:
       Some of the peppers and spices, relished even by the children of
       the Tahari districts, were sufficient to convince an average
       good fellow of Thentis or Ar that the roof of the mouth and his
       tongue were being torn out of his head.

       left the small, rounded metal cup on the tray.

       QUOTE:
       He looked at me shrewdly and, to my surprise, drew a tospit out
       of his pouch, that yellowish-white, bitter fruit, looking
       something like a peach, but about the size of a plum.
       ---Nomads of Gor, 12:149
       The common tospit almost invariably has an odd number of seeds.
       On the other hand the rare, long-stemmed tospit usually has an
       even number of seeds. Both fruits are indistinguishable
       outwardly. I could see that, perhaps by accident, the tospit
       which Kamchak had thrown me had had the stem twisted off. It
       must be then, I surmised, the rare, long-stemmed tospit.

       ---Rogue of Gor, p 132
       I do not care too much for tospits, as they are quite bitter.
       Some men like them. They are commonly used, sliced and sweetened
       with honey, and in syrups, and to flavor, with their juices, a
       variety of dishes. They are also excellent in the prevention of
       nutritional deficiencies at sea, in long voyages, containing, I
       expect, a great deal of vitamin C. They are sometimes called the
       seaman’s larma. They are a fairly hard-fleshed fruit, and are
       not difficult to dry and store. On the serpents they are carried
       in small barrels, usually kept, with vegetables, under the
       overturned keel of the longboat.

       On the back of the kaiila, the black lance in hand, bending down
       in the saddle, I raced past a wooden wand fixed in the earth, on
       the top of which was placed a dried tospit, a small, wrinkled,
       yellowish-white peachlike fruit, about the size of a plum, which
       grows on the tospit bush, patches of which are indigenous to the
       drier valleys of the western Cartius. They are bitter but
       edible.
