There's a whole theme in Freedom's Ransom about softening up trading 
partners with food and drink, and trading food for other supplies.

Then there's C.S. Lewis and his foods... I brought in some turkish 
delight to work this week, and my boss was thrilled because she'd never 
tasted it before. We discussed Edmund briefly. She must have liked the 
turkish delight as she later commented to me (when the box was almost 
empty) that she felt extraordinarily Edmund-ish...
