5 Appealing Foods From Video Games We Want To Consume In Real Life

Have you ever paused and wondered, “What are the tastiest foods in video games?” Is it just me? If so, it is still a wonderful thought. There are foods on the long-running, animated television series, The Simpsons (like the Squishee from the Kwik-E-Mart, Shakespeare’s Fried Chicken, Cool Ranch Soda, Krusty O’s, Chippos, Krusty Burger, Three-eyed Fish, and Duff Beer. 

Have you ever wanted to take a sip of Nuka-Cola (a spoof of the Coca-Cola)? Nuka Cola is in the Fallout series and is still a great-tasting beverage we would like to try. Mexican Coca-Cola is made with cane sugar while the United States Coca-Cola is made with high fructose corn syrup. Now, you are probably wondering if a beverage can be considered food and the answer is yes, but they are categorized as beverages, to simply avoid confusion.

The delectable beef stew in Red Dead Redemption 2 is a mouthwatering dish, with red broth, cooked meat, and yummy vegetables. Here are 5 appealing foods from video games that we want to consume in real life. 

5. Mushroom (Super Mario Bros.): 

If you can become Rachel Ray or Gordon Ramsay, then recreating this classic mushroom should get everyone’s stomach growling. Not too many people can say their favorite food is a mushroom, but it just may be the most well-known food in video game history.

Mario or Luigi consumes the mushrooms to double in size and does that make you want to eat vegetable more? Do you feel like eating broccoli to grow big and strong or eating spinach like Popeye the Sailor Man?

4. Cluckin’ Bell (Grand Theft Auto): 

Throughout the Grand Theft Auto series, there are restaurant chains like Well Stacked Pizza (referring to Domino’s Pizza), Burger Shot, and Tuff Nut Donuts (referring to Randy’s Donuts), but Cluckin’ Bell (referring to Taco Bell and Kentucky Fried Chicken) resonates with GTA fans.

3. Creamy Heart Soup (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild): 

The ingredients to the Creamy Heart Soup are one voltfruit, one hydromelon, two, heart-shaped vegetables (either a hearty radish or a big hearty radish), and fresh milk in a pot. A regular hearty radish will heal eight hearts to Links Life Gauge and sell for 50 rupees. Big hearty radishes heal eleven hearts to Link’s Life Gauge and sell for 70 rupees. This sweet soup that actually bring people closer together sounds like a brilliant idea. 

Because Ashai, in Gerudo Town, claims to not remember the Creamy Heart Soup recipe, who knows if you created the authentic recipe? 

2. Creamy Crustacean Omelette (Final Fantasy 15): 

Omelette are not my first choice on what I would rather eat, but the appealing Creamy Crustacean Omelette, is an exception. It does not need cheese, looks like animated, moisturized clay and still looks realistic enough to crave.

1. Potato Chips (Bioshock):

Okay. I was about to put the power pellets to Pac-Man in the number one spot for a sense of humor. We all would love to power up and dominate everything in our path, but the pellets appear like flavorless cat food, scientifically proven to electrocute you. 

I cannot express enough how addicting unhealthy potato chips are. Salty’s Potato Chips can be found on corpses, in vending machines, and other areas around the Rapture.

How many people have an appetite after seeing corpses? The food has to be delicious to want to take from a corpse. I have tasted countless salty potato chips and none of them gave me the desire to take from a corpse, making me feel like a real-life cannibal, as I think about a corpse I took the snack from. Consuming these snacks will heal your health and when you use Extra Nutrition Tonic, more health is restored. That sounds like a worthwhile snack to try, but hopefully, it does not remind you of funeral food.
