Food Project Update

[forestofglory]

Here's another update on my project to list all the food and drink in the drama. I started out with a preliminary list based on skimming, my memory and other people's rewatches. I'm now slowly working through a full rewatch. I've been doing 2-3 episodes a week and posting here with updates every couple of weeks. The master post has now been updated through episode 35.

I’ve removed all the asterisk from the main post to make it more accessible to those using screen readers. If anyone has any other thoughts on how I can improve the accessibility let me know.

Here are my notes and questions form episodes 31 to 35 :


Can anyone identify the snacks Zhu Hong eats in her dream in ep 31? (at 28:09)

Is the potion that Chu Shuzhi gives Guo Changcheng to make him sleep just liquor?

Shen Wei’s first lolipop still gives me all the feels!

This update is pretty short so here are five food themed recs. I’ve really been enjoying all the different ways food shows up in fic. I love how it can show both worldbuilding and feelings so well.

Under Rusted Skies by ExtraPenguin
This space AU has great worldbuilding and a hilarious scene with potatoes!

Once Upon a Time in Dixing by china_shop
Shen Wei is friends with a Dixingren cook who makes something absolutely amazing!

not your eyes and not what you say by Raven
Ok, no one actually eats anything in this but it's still about food and feeding people and I love it.

If Life Was A Movie We’d Have A Better Soundtrack Than This by galaxysoup
No powers AU. Shen Wei feeds so many people in this and it is glorious!

the cat always wins by Teaotter
Featuring a very cute breakfast.

Only five more episodes to go! (Unless I decide I need to re-rewatch some of the very early episodes)
