    IT'S PEOPLE!!!!!

    Anyway, Romulan Ale, predictably, was the first thing to come to my mind.

    I kind of do wonder about the coffee they serve during the TOS.

    I wonder if it's a Kona blend or maybe it's just plain, old, 23rd Century Taster's Choice.

    How about ghost peppers?

    It seems like home-made hasperat should have different ingredients than a burrito. What would be different enough from the norm to seem "alien" or "exotic?"

    A large mushroom and pepperoni pizza with extra onions.

    And a Michelob.

    I'd like to try a kaferian apple again. I always favored those.

    I always wanted to try a jumja stick, or however you spell it. Extras always carried them around and once either Dax or Kira actually eats a bite of one on camera.

    Apparently, in-universe, that stuff (called gristhera, an Andorian invention) is popular with pretty much every alien race in Trek, humans included. So that's why you always see it at diplomatic functions, like in 'Journey to Babel.' Don't know what the actual onscreen 'prop' food is made out of, though...I assume it IS food, since we see the actors actually eating it.

    Those cubes always looked like chopped melons to me (Honeydew, watermelon, cantelope, maybe some pineapple), though I also understood them to be much more than mere fruit (like actual meals and entrees) in-universe.
