 recommendations for food that will survive the Trimarian heat and can be
 served "cold" (or room temperature). >>


I recently did a class for Girl Scout leaders on period cooking, and served 
them a lot of samples with no problem, but then they had paid to be in the 
class...I really don't know what the legal issues are.
Some of the items I used (again, all had to be servable cold, but I made a 
point of the fact that most probably *wouldn't* have been served cold in 
period) were Pies of Parys (which I have made in tart sizes and taken to 
Pennsic; they've stayed good three days or more in a cooler); Koken von 
Honer, which is a chicken pie; cold sliced roast beef with winter cameline 
sauce and piper sauce; gingerbread; Chireseye.  The recipes I used are 
available on request :-)  I also did Shrympes, which are just cold boiled 
shrimp sprinkled with vinegar, but I don't know how that would keep.
Compost definitely wouldn't be a problem as far as spoiling, and I've used 
that for demos with fairly good results..
