I dont think the female species would survive if we went bar hoping.

AHA!

Thanks again to Graham's extensive database, I've found that Vulcans do indeed eat shellfish at least. There's an entry on Vulcan Mollusks, an apparent delicacy. Now, I wonder if they'd eat other forms of shellfish...

Oddly enough, out of the hundreds of food entries on DITL, there are only three Vulcan foods (and a number of drinks), so I don't really have to strain my brain to come up with stuff.

I've got a number of things already planned; I intend to observe the characters to figure out what they'd likely enjoy the most.

[Aaron]

Wait. Mollusks...on a desert planet? I wonder if there actually cave slugs....

Well, we know Mikey's guy likes steak.
And no, I'm not back yet. Just found a few free minutes.

Although it has not always been so, most Vulcans are vegetarians. They also do not touch food with their hands (ENT: "Broken Bow"), unless wearing special gloves. (ENT: "Home")

Also, Vulcans are said not to drink alcohol

No wonder Spock was an outcast, what with eating veggies with his fingers in the Big E's mess hall. He's also had booze on occasion.

Well, he was half human.

[Aaron]

Well, he was half human.

Yes but he obviously embraced his Vulcan heritage. He may as wll have been a full Vulcan, in fact he was so much so that the writers had to find excuses to bring out his human side.

So on a desert world the animal at the top of the food chain eats vegetables and sea creatures. Brilliant!

[Sionnach Glic]

Didn't ENT make a big deal about how they didn't eat other animals? In fact, I remember T'Pol getting quite pissy in Broken Bow and calling us savages for doing so. And yet they eat shellfish for desert.
Hypocrites.

[Mikey]

No prob - they like shellfish, but live in a desert, so they can't have them.

I don't know; the entry is there, along with an alcoholic beverage called Vulcan Port...

Just because their planet is the point of origin for something doesn't mean they have to eat it.
