Elven Culinary Traditions
There is a saying in the Adventurer's Guild, 'don't buy food from Elves.' While many may not know the reason for this word of caution, there are real reasons behind it.
Elves are almost exclusively carnivorous. They, as plants, find the idea of consuming plant matter odd, and would much rather devour the flesh of animals, and indeed, other sentient races instead.
While the consuming of sentients is all but disbarred from most modern Elvish settlements, there are still small sects who continue the practice, and a few others who do so as part of special celebrations.
History
Elves have had the tradition of only or mostly only consuming flesh of other creatures for as long as their written records exist. However as time goes on more non meat based dishes have been added to the collection, though they are often seen as odd or being 'too foreign' by most elves.
