General clarification on work content


** After spending time on Earth at Starfleet Academy, Nog takes a strong liking to the human beverage root beer. Quark thinks that his son enjoying such a distinctly-human food is disgraceful, but eventually admits (quite shamefully) that after you drink enough root beer you can't help but like it.

* ''Series/TheFlash2014'''s Dr. Harrison Wells is very fond of the Big Belly Burger at the local mall, and can be seen enjoying takeout at various points during the series, including when imprisoned in the Pipeline after his true identity is revealed. It turns out that the reason he likes it so much is that they have run out of cows in the future.

* ''Series/{{Community}}'':
** Starting in Season 3, Abed's love of buttered noodles (likely influenced by his lack of cooking skills) is a RunningGag. One episode even features a {{dream sequence}} where he imagines buttered noodle ''vending machines''.
** Shirley takes pride in her baking ability, and is shown to be particularly fond of brownies. Before starting her sandwich shop at the end of Season 3, she was even planning on selling brownies for a living.

Joey's favorite dessert was a brand of cookie called the Vanilla Weasel, and a subplot of one episode was his depression over the company that makes the cookie going out of business.



* ''Series/ICarly'': Spaghetti tacos. More of a meme associated with the series than one character's fave, though. Fat Cakes, and ham, for Sam. Horrible crap like Cucumber Cups with unflavored yogurt for Mrs. Benson.

Horrible crap like Cucumber Cups with unflavored yogurt for Mrs. Benson. The iCarly gang as a whole enjoys smoothies (considering how often they're at the Groovy Smoothie), and in an early episode Spencer reveals that Carly's favorite drink is coffee, but that he usually gives her decaf without telling her [[note]] She was thirteen at the time, so it made sense [[/note]]



* Radar O'Reilly from ''Series/{{MASH}}'' loves his Grape Nehi. Klinger is fond of the Hungarian-style hot dogs from Tony Packo's in his hometown of Toledo. And let's not forget the lengths Hawkeye went to to get Adam's Ribs from Chicago that one time.

[[AllForNothing only for the Colonel to remember that he was allergic to it]].

** Scully has a borderline obsession with health food. This includes tofu ice-cream ("The Unnatural") and stirring bee pollen into yoghurt for her lunches ("Dreamland, part I"), even though Mulder tells her she's a scientist and should know better. When she eats vegetable salad in all things, she can't be bothered by Mulder's rant about crop circles in England. Although you might think [[SubvertedTrope otherwise]], because in "Bad Blood" she's hungry and irritated that her last meal was a half a bagel with ''light'' cream cheese, and not ''real'' cream cheese.

* ''Series/{{Lost}}'': much of Hurley's flashbacks revolve around chicken. In one episode he tells Libby he's had a lot of jobs, most of them having to do with chicken. He worked at, then owned, Mr. Cluck's Chicken Shack. In one flashback, when asked what he liked about himself, one was "I like that I like chicken.”

* ''Series/ArrestedDevelopment'': George Bluth, Sr. and ice cream sandwiches. It's understandable: the visitation area at Orange County Prison has a vending machine that ''only'' contains [[BlandNameProduct unlabeled]] ice cream sandwiches, and they appear to be one of the only sweet treats that inmates at the prison have access to. Even after George, Sr. gets out of prison, he apparently never loses his addiction to the things, and he's seen eating them many times afterwards.

** Buster Bluth and juice, which fits his ManChild persona. [[MyBelovedSmother His mother Lucille]] severely restricts how much of it he's allowed to drink, which (naturally) just makes it even more appealing.
** Creator/CarlWeathers loves stew. Due to being a washed-up actor without a lot of money, he appears to mainly subsist on cheap stew made from various bits of food that he steals from Hollywood parties. During his acting days, he supposedly did the same thing with food from craft services tables.
