Re: The joys of overthinking things

I way overthink food in every single fantasy or SF setting. Like, if a fantasy setting is clearly supposed to be equivalent to Europe in the Middle Ages but they have potatoes, I have to figure out if that universe's equivalent of the post-Columbian exchange happened early, or if they're supposed to be native there in this universe. A culture having rice implies things about its climate and geography; so do oats, or wine, or tomatoes, or peppers. And it drives me crazy when an author violates those things and doesn't even bother to handwave it.

The most interesting fandom to think about food for is Pokemon, for me. I mean, Pokemon are pretty clearly sapient in a lot of cases, and yet in the anime, Ash fantasises about eating Magikarp. And I'm just thinking, what would the local Gyarados think about that...? Why is Ash fantasising about eating a sapient being? Are people generally vegetarian in the Pokeverse, since they've largely retconned out non-Pokemon animals but there's still plenty of plants around? Do people make scrambled unfertilised Pokemon eggs? These are big questions!
