What type of food do Star Wars humans eat?

I realize this is a crazy question, but in the ESB, when Luke is on the Dagobah System and he meets Yoda for the first time…and doesn’t know he’s Yoda of course…Yoda starts thumbing through Luke’s food box and says “How do you get so big eating food of this kind?” I mean, it looked like a tackle box that fisherman use. Have you ever wondered what kind of food that was in that box? I know that’s a weird question, but I have always wondered.
Also in ROTJ, on Endor, when Leia is bonding with an EWOK for the first time to try to calm him down, she offers him some crazy cracker-type thing. What is that?
Lastly, in The Force Awakens, Rey squirted some liquid on some small green thing she bought and it puffs up into some weird green looking bread. What is that supposed to be?
Is there any place in any of the Star Wars films that explains what that weird food is they eat? Of course, I just mean the humans. I don’t need an explanation behind why the Sarlaac Pit eats people or why Jabba the Hutt eats giant bull frogs. Heh heh.
Any answers? Just curious.

It’s a frozen space burrito.

Yoda looks at a frozen space burrito.

I always thought Luke’s Dagobah food was a Twix bar when I was a kid.

I thought it was a Breakfast Sausage until just now.

It always looked like a carrot to me.

Or like a treat for dogs.

Rogue One is redundant. Just play the first mission of DARK FORCES.

It’s obviously a mini bratwurst and yoda just didn’t know it was supposed to go in a bun.

Seriously, all the food that came in Luke’s kit looks like dog food. Dog food and vitamins.

They’re clearly the Instant Bread Rey has, just portioned down even smaller for exact nutritional control.

(Incidentally, I wonder what would happen if you tried to eat one of those breads dry.)

They probably drew inspiration from what NASA astronauts were eating in the 70’s.

And no, that’s not Captain Kirk’s dinner tray, it’s what they used on Skylab. 😉

Fresh minty breath is a must when meeting your new Jedi master for the first time. 😉

The upper right corner looks like Chex mix.

It seems like people are really embracing the new characters. In fact, the big question people ask me now about Star Wars is, “Are Finn and Poe gay lovers?” And really how the f*ck would I know? My second husband left me for a man, so my gaydar isn’t exactly what you’d call Death Star level quality. ----Carrie Fisher

those green crackers, what Charlton Heston film does that that remind me of?

I like what Rey is eating at Maz’s place. Not sure I’m up for blue bantha milk.

The stuff Leia gives Wicket is lembas bread.

I’m pretty sure Leia just hands Wicket a rice cake.

Hah yeah I always think that.

All the stuff looks like terrible dry health foods. The ESB lunchbox is like a bunch of Ryvitas.
