Almean cuisine

I know on this page, in the meals section, you give an outline of what Verdurian food is like, but I was wondering if you'd fleshed out the cuisine of other cultures. Are other cultures' foods palatable to Verdurians, or vice-versa? I Beic food really spicy ( I'd imagine with garden agriculture, in a tropical climate, you'd be able to grow lots of spices, but that's just me over-extrapolating.)? Do different cultures have different cooking implements? Do you have a list of foods by culture that I just haven't found yet?
Sorry, I'm just really obsessed with food.

I don't think he has, but you can try reading the agriculture pages in the Almeopedia and then use your own imagination.

So I read up on the cuisine... why does Almea have access to things like potatoes and such? Is this an Alternate Earth of sorts?

It doesn't really... it has things like lyum which are similar enough to potatoes that it's convenient to use the terrestrial word. Same story with the names of other plants and animals.

Ah I see... perhaps your potatoe-flavored plants grow on trees, like breadfruit?
