A common meat on Gor, being cooked in various ways. The Wagon Peoples exist almost solely upon it.

The Wagon Peoples grow no food, nor do they have manufacturing as we know it. They are herders and it is said, killers. They eat nothing that has touched dirt. They live on the meat and milk of the bosk.
Nomads of Gor, page 4

Gant

A flighted bird found in the rence, often eaten broiled over an open fire.

I had also been used to carry heavy kettles of rence beer from the various islands to the place of feasting, as well as strings of water gourds, poles of fish, plucked gants, slaughtered tarsks, and baskets of the pith of rence.
Raiders of Gor, page 41

Sausage

Made of various meats, tarsk sausage is the one mentioned directly.

There were several yards of sausages hung on hooks; numerous cannisters of flour, sugars and salts; many smaller containers of spices and condiments.
Assassins of Gor, page 271

Tabuk

Golden Gorean one-horned antelope.

and in the same case but in a different corner was a small herd, no more than five adult animals, a proud male and four does, of tabuk, the single-horned, golden Gorean antelope.
Priest Kings of Gor, page 191

Tarsk

Similar to the boar, of earth, its meat is eaten in various ways, normally roasted or baked, sometimes whole.

I thought of the yellow Gorean bread, baked in the shape of round, flat loaves, fresh and hot; my mouth watered for a tabuk steak or, perhaps, if I were lucky, a slice of roast tarsk, the formidable six-tusked wild boar of Gor's temperate forests.
Outlaw of Gor, page 76

Tumit

A large, flightless, carnivorous bird hunted with bolas by the Wagon Peoples. The sport lies in who gets to eat that night, the hunter or the bird.

I gathered that the best season for hunting tumits, the large, flightless carnivorous birds of the southern plains, was at hand, for Kamchak, Harold, and others seemed to be looking forward to it with great eagerness.
Nomads of Gor, page 2

Verr

A mountain goat raised for wool, meat and milk.

The verr was a mountain goat indigenous to the Voltai. It was a wild, agile, ill-tempered beast, long-haired and spiral-horn.
Priest-Kings of Gor, page 63

Vulo

A domesticated pigeon, raised both for its meat and for the eggs it lays.

She had been carrying a wicker basket containing vulos, domesticated pigeons raised for eggs and meat.
Nomads of Gor, page 1

Fish/Seafood

Eel

Various types of eel are raised on Gor to be consumed. Many types are considered to be a delicacy.

Some of these pools contain voracious eels, of various sorts, river eels, black eels, the spotted eel, and such, which are Gorean delicacies.
Magicians of Gor, page 428

Oysters

Presumably much the same as oysters from earth, a delicacy. Found in the delta of the Vosk.

Other girls had prepared the repast, which, for the war camp, was sumptuous indeed, containing even oysters from the delta of the Vosk, a portion of the plunder of a tarn caravan of Ar, such delicacies having been intended for the very table of Marlenus, the Ubar of that great city itself.
Captive of Gor, page 301

Parsit Fish

A light, flaky, delicate fish that is sometimes mixed, raw or dried, into bondmaid gruel.

Like the bond-maids, she had been fed only on cold Sa-Tarna porridge and scraps of dried parsit fish.
Marauders of Gor, page 56

Sorp

A type of shellfish

(Searching diligently for quote)

Wingfish

A small blue four-spined fish, about the size of a tarn disk when curled in one's hand, it has three or four poisonous spines on its dorsal fin. It is regarded as a delicacy, its liver the delicacy of delicacies.

The blue, four-spined wingfish is found only in the waters of Cos. Larger varieties are found farther out to sea. The small blue fish is regarded as a great delicacy, and its liver as the delicacy of delicacies.
Nomads of Gor, page 85

Fruit

Apricot

Not described but presumably similar if not identical to the same fruit found on Earth. It can be found sold in the markets of the Tahari.

I brushed away two sellers of apricots and spices.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 45

Dates

The principal export of the Tahari. sold either by the basket or in pressed-date bricks.

A veiled woman was hawking dates by the tefa.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 46

Ka-la-na Fruit

The red fruit of the Ka-la-na tree. Presumably sweet, it is used to make a type of wine as well as being edible on its own.

"Over there," I said, "are some Ka-la-na trees. Wait here and I'll gather some fruit."
Tarnsman of Gor, page 96

Larma

A brittle, hard-shelled fruit, the fleshy endocarp being very sweet and juicy. Women are sometimes referred to as larma as under their frigid exteriors, it is said, they are sweet and juicy.

The larma is lucious. It has a rather hard shell but the shell is brittle and easily broken. Within, the fleshy endocarp, the fruit, is delicious, and very juicy. Sometimes, when a woman is referred to as a "larma," it is suggested that her hard or frigid exterior conceals a rather different sort of interior, one likely to be quite delicious. Once the shell has been broken through or removed, irrevocably, there is, you see, exposed, soft, vulnerable, juicy and helpless, the interior, in the fruit, the fleshy endocarp, in the woman, the slave.
Renigades of Gor, page 437

Melon

A yellowish red-striped fruit

"Buy melons!" called a fellow next to her, lifting one of the yellowish, red-striped spheres towards me
Tribesmen of Gor, page 45

Nuts

Undescribed but presumably similar to an earth nut of some kind, possibly peanuts or cashews. It is an import of the Tahari.

To the oases caravans bring various goods, for example, rep-cloth, embroidered cloths, silks, rugs, silver, gold, jewelries, mirrors, kailiauk tusk, perfumes, hides, skins, feathers, precious woods, tools, needles, worked leather goods, salt, nuts and spices, jungle birds, prized as pets, weapons, rough woods, sheets of tin and copper, the tea of Bazi, wool from the bounding Hurt, decorated, beaded whips, female slaves, and may other forms of merchandise.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 47

Olives, Torian

A type of olive mentioned but not otherwise described. Possibly a black olive of some sort.

The Tarn Keeper, who was called by those in the tavern Mip, bought the food, bosk steak and yellow bread, peas and Torian olives, and two golden-brown, starchy Suls, broken open and filled with melted bosk cheese.
Assassin of Gor, page 168

Peach

A yellow peach, possibly similar in taste to earth peaches.

Another device, common in Port Kar, is for the girl to kneel before the master and put her head down and lift her arms, offering him fruit, usually a larma, or a yellow Gorean peach, ripe and fresh.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 27

Pear

Similar to an earth pear perhaps.

In her hand there was a half of a yellow Gorean pear, the remains of a half moon of verr cheese imbedded in it.
Explorers of Gor, page 62

Pit Fruit

Also known as the hard larma, this is a firm, single-seeded, applelike fruit.

I took a slice of hard larma from my tray. This is a firm, single-seeded, applelike fruit. It is quite unlike the segmented, juicy larma. It is sometimes called, and perhaps more aptly, the pit fruit, because of its large single stone.
Players of Gor, page 267

Plums

No description given, presumed similar to earth plums.

I had nearly stepped into a basket of plums.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 45

Pomegranate

Hopefully similar to the earth fruit of the same name.

*quot;Pomegranate orchards lie at the east of the oasis," I said.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 174

Raisins

For any who do not realise this, raisins are dried grapes. As the grapes on Gor might not have the exact taste of Earth grapes, raisins might be slightly different than what we're used to.

In the cafes I had feasted well. I had had verr meat, cut in chunks and threaded on a metal rod, with slices of peppers and larma, and roasted; vulo stew with raisins, nuts, onions and honey; a kort with melted cheese and nutmeg; hot Bazi tea, sugared, and, later, Turian wine.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 47

Ram-berries

Small reddish berries with edible seeds, much like tiny plums excepting the many seeds within.

A guard was with us, and we were charged with filling our leather buckets with ram-berries, a small, reddish fruit with edible seeds, not unlike tiny plums, save for the many small seeds.
Captive of Gor, page 305

Red olives

Grown in Tyros, presumably the same as earth olives.

Clitus, too, had brought two bottles of Ka-la-na wine, a string of eels, cheese of the Verr, and a sack of red olives from the groves of Tyros.
Raiders of Gor, page 114

Ta-Grapes

Purple grapes grown on the terraces of Cos.

The grapes were purple and, I suppose, Ta grapes from the lower vineyards of the terraced island of Cos some four hundred pasangs from Port Kar.
Priest Kings of Gor, page 45

Tospit

Bitter but edible peachlike fruit about the size of a plum. It is yellowish-white in color.

On the back of the kaiila, the black lance in hand, bending down in the saddle, I raced past a wooden wand fixed in the earth, on the top of which was placed a dried tospit, a small, wrinkled, yellowish-white peachlike fruit, about the size of a plum, which grows on the tospit bush, patches of which are indigenous to the drier valleys of the western Cartius. They are bitter but edible.
Nomads of Gor, page 59

Vegetables

Beans

No description given, assuming is the same as the earth vegetable.

In them growing, small at this season, shafts of Sa-Tarna; too, there would be peas, and beans, cabbages and onions, and patches of the golden sul, capable of surviving at this latitude.
Marauders of Gor, page 81

Cabbage

No description given, assuming is the same as the earth vegetable.

In them growing, small at this season, shafts of Sa-Tarna; too, there would be peas, and beans, cabbages and onions, and patches of the golden sul, capable of surviving at this latitude.

At the oasis will be grown a hybrid; brownish Sa-Tarna, adapted to the heat of the desert; most Sa-Tarna is yellow; and beans, berries, onions, tuber suls, various sorts of melons, a foliated leaf vegetable, called Katch, and various root vegetables, such as turnips, carrots, radishes, of the sphere and cylinder varieties, and korts, a large, brownish-skinned, thick-skinned, sphere-shaped vegetable, usually some six inches in width, the interior of which is yellowish, fibrous and heavily seeded.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 37

Corn

Presumably the same as corn on earth. Grown by the Sames in the Barrens.

They grow produce for their masters, such as wagmeza and wagnu, maize, or corn, and such things as pumpkins and squash.
Savages of Gor, page 234

Garlic

Presumably the same as garlic on earth.

"I have peas and turnips, garlic and onions in my hut," said the man, his bundle like a giant's hump on his back.
Outlaw of Gor, page 29

Katch

A foliated leaf vegetable

At the oasis will be grown a hybrid; brownish Sa-Tarna, adapted to the heat of the desert; most Sa-Tarna is yellow; and beans, berries, onions, tuber suls, various sorts of melons, a foliated leaf vegetable, called Katch, and various root vegetables, such as turnips, carrots, radishes, of the sphere and cylinder varieties, and korts, a large, brownish-skinned, thick-skinned, sphere-shaped vegetable, usually some six inches in width, the interior of which is yellowish, fibrous and heavily seeded.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 37

Kes

the salty blue secondary root of the kes shrub can be eaten and is a primary ingredient in sullage, a form of Gorean soup.

First she boiled and simmered a kettle of Sullage, a common Gorean soup consisting of three standard ingredients and, as it is said, whatever else may be found, saving only the rocks of the field. The principal ingredients of Sullage are the golden Sul, the starchy, golden-brown, vine-borne fruit of the golden-leaved Sul plant; the curled, red, ovate leaves of the Tur-pa, a tree parasite, cultivated in host orchids of Tur trees; and the salty, blue secondary roots of the Kes Shrub, a small, deeply rooted plant which grows best in sandy soil.
Priest-Kings of Gor, page 45

Kort

A large brownish-skinned, sphere shaped vegetable with a thick skin, usually six inches in width. It has a yellowish interior that is fibrous and heavily seeded.

At the oasis will be grown a hybrid; brownish Sa-Tarna, adapted to the heat of the desert; most Sa-Tarna is yellow; and beans, berries, onions, tuber suls, various sorts of melons, a foliated leaf vegetable, called Katch, and various root vegetables, such as turnips, carrots, radishes, of the sphere and cylinder varieties, and korts, a large, brownish-skinned, thick-skinned, sphere-shaped vegetable, usually some six inches in width, the interior of which is yellowish, fibrous and heavily seeded.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 37

"I have peas and turnips, garlic and onions in my hut," said the man, his bundle like a giant's hump on his back.
Outlaw of Gor, page 29

Peppers

Hot peppers found in the Tahari, used in cooking.

Some of the peppers and spices, relished even by children in the Tahari districts, were sufficient to convince an average good fellow of Thentis or Ar that the roof of his mouth and his tongue were being torn out of his head
Tribesmen of Gor, page 47

Potatoe

The only mention of an actual potatoe in the books.

"Dorna the Proud," said the slave, who tumbled onoins, turnips, radishes, potatoes and bread into the feed trough.
Outlaw of Gor, page 155

Pumpkin

Presumably the same as pumpkins on earth. Grown by the Sames in the Barrens.

They grow produce for their masters, such as wagmeza and wagnu, maize, or corn, and such things as pumpkins and squash.
Savages of Gor, page 234

There are two types of radish, a sphere shaped version and a cylinder shaped variety.

At the oasis will be grown a hybrid; brownish Sa-Tarna, adapted to the heat of the desert; most Sa-Tarna is yellow; and beans, berries, onions, tuber suls, various sorts of melons, a foliated leaf vegetable, called Katch, and various root vegetables, such as turnips, carrots, radishes, of the sphere and cylinder varieties, and korts, a large, brownish-skinned, thick-skinned, sphere-shaped vegetable, usually some six inches in width, the interior of which is yellowish, fibrous and heavily seeded.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 37

Rence Cakes

A type of cake made from fried rence paste, on flat stones, often sprinkled with rence seeds.

In a moment the woman had returned with a double handful of wet rence paste. Wen fried on flat stones it makes a kind of cake, often sprinkled with rence seeds.
Raiders of Gor, page 25

Tur-Pah

A tree parasite whose red, ovate, leaves are edible.

First she boiled and simmered a kettle of Sullage, a common Gorean soup consisting of three standard ingredients and, as it is said, whatever else may be found, saving only the rocks of the field. The principal ingredients of Sullage are the golden Sul, the starchy, golden-brown, vine-borne fruit of the golden-leaved Sul plant; the curled, red, ovate leaves of the Tur-pah, a tree parasite, cultivated in host orchids of Tur trees; and the salty, blue secondary roots of the Kes Shrub, a small, deeply rooted plant which grows best in sandy soil.

Bread/Sweets/Misc.

Biscuits

Flat pressed biscuits baked from Sa-Tarna flour

Grunt, from his own stores, brought forth some dried, pressed biscuits, baked in Kailiauk from Sa-Tarna flour.
Savages of Gor, page 328

Black Bread

A type of bread, not other otherwise described.

The great merchant galleys of Port Kar, and Cos, and Tyros, and other maritime powers, utilized thousands of such miserable wretches, fed on brews of peas and black bread, chained in the rowing holds, under the whips of slave masters, their lives measured by feedings and beatings, and the labor of the oar.
Hunters of Gor, page 13

Chocolate

The beans originally taken from Earth, chocolate is now grown and used on Gor as well.

It was a small, hard candy. It was sweet. I closed my eyes. It was the first sweet I had had since I had been brought to Gor. In the plain diet of a slave girl, such things are very precious. Girls would fight and tear at one another for a chocolate.
Slavegirl of Gor, page 216

Cinnamon

A type of spice.

"It is cinnamon and cloves, is it not?"
Explorers of Gor, page 98

Clove

A type of spice.

"It is cinnamon and cloves, is it not?"
Explorers of Gor, page 98

Flavored Ices

Ices sold at various events, the actual flavors used are unmentioned.

I heard a slave girl wheedling her master for a pastry. Free women, here and there, were delicately putting tidbits beneath their veils. Some even lifted their veils somewhat to drink of the flavored ices.
Assassins of Gor, page 141

Honey

Comes from honey bees so presumably quite similar to earth honey so the taste might vary slightly due to differences within the species of bees.

The only relief in their existence comes once a year, on the birthday of the Tatrix, when they are served a small cake, made with honey and sesame seeds, and a small pot of poor Kal-da.
Outlaw of Gor, page 150

Mint

Similar to earth mint perhaps. Definitely served as mint sticks with blackwine.

She picked up the small tray from the stand near the table. On it was the small vessel containing a thick, sweet liquer from distant Turia, the Ar of the south, and the two tiny glasses from which we had sipped it. On the tray, too, was the metal vessel which had contained the black wine, steaming and bitter, from far Thentis, famed for its tarn flocks, the small yellow-enameled cups from which we had drunk the black wine, its spoons and sugars, a tiny bowl of mint sticks, and the softened, dampened cloths on which we had wiped our fingers.
Explorers of Gor, page 10

Pemmican

A hardened cake of fruit, meat and berries which is a staple item to the red savages.

There are various ways in which pemmican may be prepared, depending primarily on what one adds to the mixture, in the way of herbs, seasonings, and fruit. A common way of preparing it is as follows. Strips of kailiauk meat, thinly sliced and dried on poles in the sun, are pounded fine, almost to a powder. Crushed fruit, usually chokecherries, is then added to the meat. The whole, then, is mixed with, and fixed by, kailiauk fat, subsequently, usually, being divided into small, flattish, rounded cakes. The fruit sugars make this, in its way, a quick energy food, while the meat, of course, supplies valuable, long-lasting stamina protein. This, like the dried meat, or jerky, from which it is made, can be eaten either raw or cooked.
Blood Brothers of Gor, page 46

Salt, Red

Known as the "Red Salt of Kasra" it contains ferrous oxide which gives it its color.

Most salt at Klima is white, but certain of the mines deliver red salt, red from ferrous oxide in its composition, which is called the Red Salt of Kasra, after its port of embarkation, at the juncture of the Upper and Lower Fayeen.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 238

Salt, White

Untainted Sea Salt. The main type of salt found at the salt mine of Klima.

Most salt at Klima is white, but certain of the mines deliver red salt, red from ferrous oxide in its composition, which is called the Red Salt of Kasra, after its port of embarkation, at the juncture of the Upper and Lower Fayeen.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 238

Salt, Yellow

A table salt mentioned and spoken of as "of the south" but not otherwise described.

It had been expected, I gathered, that I would sit at one of the two long side tables, and perhaps even below the bowls of red and yellow salt which divided these tables.
Assassin of Gor, page 86

Sa-Tarna Bread

Bread baked from Sa-Tarna grain. It is yellowish in color and usually split into eight divisions. It is baked as a round flat loaf.

Then, while the other fellow took his place on the wagon box and started the ponderous draft beast into motion, he gave me two generous pieces of bread, two full wedges of Sa-Tarna bread, a fourth of a loaf. Such bread is usually baked in round, flat loaves, with eight divisions in a loaf. Some smaller loaves are divided into four divisions.
Kajira of Gor, page 216

Sa-Tarna Grain

A yellowish grain that forms a staple of the Gorean diet.

Far to my left, I saw a splendid field of Sa-Tarna, bending beautifully in the wind, that tall yellow grain that forms a staple of the Gorean diet.
Outlaw of Gor, page 19

Sesame Seeds

Presumed the same as the earth consumable of the same name.

The only relief in their existence comes once a year, on the birthday of the Tatrix, when they are served a small cake, made with honey and sesame seeds, and a small pot of poor Kal-da.
Outlaw of Gor, page 150

Sugar

There are various colors of sugars, though their flavors are never spoken of. There is specifically mentioned four Gorean sugars though only two, white and yellow, are ever mentioned by color.

Lola now returned to the small table and, kneeling, head down, served us our dessert, slices of tospit, sprinkled with four Gorean sugars.
Rogue of Gor, page 132

With a tiny spoon, its tip no more than a tenth of a hort in diameter, she placed four measures of white sugar, and six of yellow, in the cup; with two stirring spoons, one for the white sugar, another for the yellow, she stirred the beverage after each measure.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 89

Sweetmeat

A candy like substance usually made from nuts, sugarwater, and various other ingredience.

Below me I saw a hawker of sweetmeats angrily discarding four silver-glazed, numbered clay tiles.
Assassin of Gor, page 140

Tasta

Small, round, succulent candy coated in syrup or fudge and then mounted upon a stick for easy handling and eating. Literal translation is "stick candy."

He yelled something raucous and ribald. It had to do with "tastas" or "stick candies." These are not candies, incidentally, like sticks, as, for example, licorice or peppermint sticks, but soft, rounded, succulent candies, usually covered in a coating of syrup or fudge, rather in the nature of the caramel apple, but much smaller, and, like the caramel apple, mounted on sticks. The candy is prepared and then the stick, from the bottom, is thrust up, deeply, into it. It is then ready to be eaten.
Dancer of Gor, page 81

Dairy

Arctic Gant Eggs

Eggs of the Gant bird which are eaten like apples when frozen. Popular with the red hunters.

I stepped aside to let a young girl pass, who carried two baskets of eggs, those of the migratory arctic gant.They nest in the mountains of the Hrimgar and in steep, rocky outcroppings, called bird cliffs,found here and there jutting out of the tundra. The bird cliffs doubtless bear some geological relation to the Hrimgar chains. When such eggs are frozen they are eaten like apples.
Beasts of Gor, page 196

Bosk Cheese

Quite simply, cheese made from the milk of the bosk. Has a lighter taste than verr cheese.

The Tarn Keeper, who was called by those in the tavern Mip, bought the food, bosk steak and yellow bread, peas and Torian olives, and two golden-brown, starchy Suls, broken open and filled with melted bosk cheese.
Assassin of Gor, page 168

Butter

Fairly self explanatory

She offered me a silver tray on which, hot and steaming, were wedges of Gorean bread, made from Sa-Tarna grain. It took one of them and, from the tureen, with the small silver dipper, both on the tray, poured hot butter on the bread.
Rogue of Gor, page 191

Verr Cheese

See verr

Vulo Eggs

See Vulo

White Grunt Eggs

Perhaps comparable to caviar, as they are served with the first course during the dinner along with fruit and pastries.

Before each guests there were tiny slices of tospit and larma, small pastries, and in a tiny golden cup, with a small golden spoon, the clustered, black, tiny eggs of the white grunt.
Fighting Slave of Gor, page 276

Soups/Porridge

BondMaid Gruel

A gruel made of Sa-Tarna meal and water often with dried or raw fish added into it. Eaten by the slaves of the north, usually known as bond-maids.

The men who fished with the net had now cleaned the catch of parsit fish, and chopped the cleaned, boned, silverish bodies into pieces, a quarter inch in width. Another of the bond-maids was then freed to mix the bond-maid gruel, mixing fresh water with Sa-Tarna meal, and then stirring in the raw fish.
Marauders of Gor, page 63

Slave Porridge

Extremely nourishing though very bland porridge made for consumption by slaves.

I, mixing the water with the precooked meal, formed a sort of cold porridge or gruel. I then, with my fingers, and putting the bowl even to my lips, fell eagerly upon that thick, bland, moist substance.
Kajira of Gor, page 257

Sullage

A common soup made of suls, kes, and tur-pah as well as anything else that is handy at the time.

First she boiled and simmered a kettle of Sullage, a common Gorean soup consisting of three standard ingredients and, as it is said, whatever else may be found, saving only the rocks of the field. The principal ingredients of Sullage are the golden Sul, the starchy, golden-brown, vine-borne fruit of the golden-leaved Sul plant; the curled, red, ovate leaves of the Tur-pa, a tree parasite, cultivated in host orchids of Tur trees; and the salty, blue secondary roots of the Kes Shrub, a small, deeply rooted plant which grows best in sandy soil.
Priest-Kings of Gor, page 45
