** The sequel ''VideoGame/PokemonScarletAndViolet'', keeps this going with the sandwiches you make on picnics, since the game includes ingredients usually not seen in sandwiches like tofu, potato salad or rice. The default recipes you find from other people at least make combinations that make sense, but when you're given free reign of them, you can end up making a tofu, kiwi, jalapeño, vinegar and prosciutto sandwich... and your characer and the Pokemon may actually enjoy it! For bonus points, the game includes the ingedients needed to recreate the Elvis Sandwich described at the begining of the article.

* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'': Beholders often have very, very strange food preferences, in large part because they have almost no sense of taste (their tongues are their primary manipulatory organ). Their main concerns are texture and appearance, as due to their eyestalks they can watch themselves eating. Some beholders are known to deliberately infest their victims with molds and fungi because they like the mouthfeel.

* Leon from ''VideoGame/RuneFactory4'' likes eating poisonous food or dishes made from poisonous food, like Rainbow Trout. He says that they are, and taste, "more interesting" than other, non-poisonous things.
* Similar to Leon, Ludmila from ''VideoGame/RuneFactory5'' also enjoys the poisonous Rainbow Trout (especially when it's salted), though this is less due to it being "interesting" and more due to her being an unabashed masochist.

** Reinhard from ''Rune Factory 5'' is said to have a poor sense of taste, and outright ''enjoys'' Failed and Disastrous Dishes--considering that they damage whoever eats them, they're quite a MasochistsMeal. This also means that he's an occasional LethalChef--normally he's a perfectly competent HouseHusband capable of cooking good meals, but when he makes something specifically to ''his'' tastes, it comes out terrifying (and if the player marries him, he'll even cheerfully present the occasional Failed/Disastrous dish to his spouse for lunch).

*** Dimitri proves to be the only person to be able to stomach [[LethalChef Flayn]]'s cooking. [[spoiler:Sadly, this is because he lost his sense of taste due to psychological trauma. It's for this reason he likes food with distinct textures, and is one of the few people who isn't a fan of peach sorbet.]]

* ''Literature/UniversalMonsters'': As revealed in book 1, Captain Bob likes using peanut butter instead of mayonnaise on his sandwiches (including with bologna and other meats) after having first done so years before as an emergency substitution when he'd run out of mayo. It grosses out Nina though. Book 5 reveals that his friend Skylar does the same, and book 6 has Nina being weirded out even further when, early on, Captain Bob makes a hot dog topped with onions, relish, jalapeño peppers, chili and mayonnaise, followed by ''strawberry jelly''.
