There are literally dozens of different foods and drinks in Runescape,
many of which you can make with the Cooking skill. Here is a list
of all items that can be eaten/drunk, along with their effects:
Banana: Heals 2 hits.
Beer: There are several types of beer, with differing effects:
Normal Beer (found in Barbarian Village, at most taverns, and as
a monster drop): Heals 1 hit, temporarily adds +1 Strength, -1 Defense.
Rusty Anchor Ale (bought at the Rusty Anchor in Port Sarim): Heals
1 hit, temp. +2 Strength, -2 Attack.
Asgarnian Ale (bought at the Blue Moon Inn in Falador): Temp. +2
Strength, -4 Attack.
Dwarven Stout (bought at the Blue Moon Inn): Temp +1 mining and
smithing, -3 Attack/Defense/Strength.
Wizard's Mind Bomb (bought at the Blue Moon Inn): Temp +2 magic,
-2 Attack/Defense/Strength.
Bread: Heals 4 hits.
Cabbage: Heals 1 hit. Draynor Manor cabbage also gives +1 defense
temporarily.
Cake: Heals 12 hits.
Chocolate cake heals 15 hits. Both kinds have 3 slices.
Cheese: Heals 2 hits.
Cookedmeat: Heals 3 hits.
Fish: There are many kinds of fish, and each heals a different
amount: Anchovies (1), Shrimp (3), Sardine (4), Herring (5), Trout
(7), Pike (8), Salmon (9), Tuna (10), Lobster (12), and Swordfish
(14). (Yes, I know Shrimp and Lobster aren't fish.) All fish can be
cooked over a fire or stove. For more information on how to fish,
go to the bottom of the page.
Kebab: Random effects - usually heals 2-11 hits, sometimes
grants +3 to Strength/Defense/Attack, rarely makes you lose hits.
Pie: Can be eaten in halves. Apple: heals 5 hits per half;
Meat: heals 4 hits per half; redberry: heals 3 hits per half.
Pizza: There are several different kind of pizza also, with
different effects: Plain (heals 11), Meat (heals 14), and Anchovie
(heals 16). All have two slices.
Pumpkin: Pumpkins were dropped all over RS by the mods on Halloween
in honor of the holiday, and only on that day. They heal 14 hits.
Spinach Roll: Heals 4 hits.
Stew: Heals 9 hits.
Tomato: Heals 1 hit, used to make Pizza.
Wine: Heals 11 hits, and temporarily lowers attack by 3 (this
is cumulative, unlike beer; if you drink 3 jugs, your attack will
go down 9 points). Half a jug heals 5 hits and lowers attack by 1.
Not all of the above items can be made by players. Beer can be bought
in any tavern, or picked up at the meadhall in barbarian Village; Kebabs
can be bought at the Kebab Shop in Al Kharid for 1 gold; Spinach Rolls
can be gotten (rarely) from Moss Giants. Bananas are available only
in the Food Shop in Port Sarim and the island of Karamja, occasionally
as a drop from ice giants, and of course from the spell Bones to Bananas.
Below is a list of foods that can be made by players, along with step-by
step instructions for making them:
Bread:
-Gather some grain (one will do), and take it to the windmill.
-Drop it in the hopper on the third floor, click "operate," then go
back to the first floor and put the flour in a pot. You can put multiple
grains in at a time, as long as you pull the lever in between each
one.
-Mix the Flour with Water to make Bread Dough.
-Cook the Dough over a Range to make Bread.
Cake: There are two kinds of cake: Plain (level 40) and Chocolate
(level 50). Both types are made the same way:
-Mix Flour, Egg, and Milk in a Cake Tin.
-Cook the cake in a stove.
-For Chocolate Cake, buy chocolate from the Food Shop, add it in,
then cook.
Meat: Meat can be obtained by killing chickens, giant rats, cows,
or bears. Cookedmeat can also be found at the mead hall in Barbarian
Village. Rawmeat must be cooked over a fire or on a range to make Cookedmeat,
which can then be eaten.
Pie: There are several varieties of Pies: Apple, Meat, and
Redberry. To make Pies, you need a Pie Dish, which can be found in the
Cook's Guild, or in a general store. You must be level 10 Cooking to
make Redberry Pies, level 20 to make Meat Pies, and 30 to make Apple
Pies.
-Make dough like normal (see Bread, above). Choose "Pastry Dough"
instead of "Bread Dough."
-Use the Dough with the Pie Dish to make a pie crust.
-Mix in the filling (apple, meat, or redberry) and cook it on a Range.
Pizza: There are a few different kinds of pizza; plain is the
easiest at level 35, then meat (level 45), and anchovie (level 55).
-Make dough like normal (see Bread, above). Choose "Pizza Dough" instead
of "Bread Dough."
-Buy a tomato and cheese and add them to the pizza.
-Cook the pizza in an oven.
Stew: Stew is simple to make and very filling. You must be
level 25 to make it.
-Get a Bowl and fill it with water.
-Add Potato (from the potato patch near Farmer Fred's house) and Cooked
meat.
-Cook the Stew over an oven or a fire.
Wine: To make Wine, you need Grapes (found on the second floor
of the Cook's Guild), and Water, and you must be level 35. Mix them
together to make Wine.
And now, here for your viewing enjoyment, is a handy quick-reference
chart. Pizzas, pies, and cakes can be cooked only in a stove, while
everything else (except wine) can be cooked over a fire or a stove.

Fishing
Fishing is the ability to catch fish and other creatures from the
sea or rivers and lakes. To use this skill, you need fishing gear
- net, pole, lobster pot, harpoon, etc - which can be bought at the
Fishing Shop in Port Sarim. The fishing gear you use affects what
type of fish you can catch, and you can only catch certain fish at
certain levels (confused? check out the table below):

You can catch fish only at certain places. There are places along
the coast of the sea where the water seems to bubble - these are places
where you can catch saltwater fish (shrimp, Anchovies, and herring).
Other places along the rivers near Barbarian Village and Lumbridge
have the same thing, and there you can catch freshwater fish - salmon,
trout, and pike. You can fish for higher-level fish (tuna, lobster
and swordfish) only from the docks of Karamja.
When fishing with a Big Net you have a chance of getting a
treasure chest(casket). The casket usually contains a small amount of gp, but rarely a "half a hey"
