In ''TabletopGame/WarhammerFantasy'' proper, troll meat is exclusively a foodstuff consumed by orcs and goblins, and even ''they'' regard it as a cross between an EatingContest and a MasochistsMeal; trolls have such a potent HealingFactor that there is every possibility that eating troll meat will result in a fully-sized troll [[ChestBurster reforming inside your stomach and tearing its way free]]. One goblin special character, Grom the Paunch, became legendary when he attempted to eat troll meat and survived with a half-formed troll permanently lodged in his guts.
