Food



Much of Remnant's food is the same food as found in real life, as well as collection of its own food brands.

RWBY
There are a number of foods that are significant to the characters. Also mentioned here are brand name foods:


 * Drinks:
 * Professor Ozpin and Bartholomew Oobleck enjoy drinking mugs of coffee.
 * Yang Xiao Long orders a Strawberry Sunrise in the "Yellow" Trailer.
 * Ruby mentions during "The First Step" that she doesn't need friends to help her grow because she "drinks milk". In "Best Day Ever", she squeezes a carton of milk of the brand "Udder Satisfaction".
 * Three brands of soda are debuted during the food fight: "Dr. Piper", "Ol' King Cold", and "People Like Grapes" Soda
 * "Ol' King Cold" has snowflakes on the can, signifying they may be a product of the Schnee Dust Company, which also has Shi-nee Toothpaste.
 * In "Welcome to Beacon," James Ironwood is seen pouring something from a flask, presumably alcoholic, in his mug of coffee.

 * Sweets and snacks:
 * During "Ruby Rose," Ozpin sets a plate of cookies before the titular girl, which she, though hesitant at first, quickly gobbles down during the interrogation. Later, she is seen to treat this as a full meal during "Jaunedice."
 * One of the opening scenes for "The First Step" is of Nora Valkyrie slurping down a stack of pancakes. She seems to have developed an attachment to this food as she is regularly seen eating or heard talking about pancakes.
 * Nora threw a whole Cream Pie at Weiss' face "Best Day Ever", prompting the food fight seen in that episode.
 * in "Round One," Mercury Black is seen eating popcorn. Ozpin mentions popcorn in "It's Brawl in the Family".

 * Cereal:
 * Also during "The First Step," Weiss Schnee establishes Pyrrha Nikos' fame by mentioning Pumpkin Pete's Marshmallow Flakes Cereal.


 * Fish and other meats:
 * During "The Stray," upon learning of her Faunus nature, Ruby mentions that Blake "does like tuna a lot".

Trivia

 * The soda, Ol' King Cold, can be seen to have the Schnee Dust Company logo.
 * Ol' King Cold is a reference to the nursery rhyme Old King Cole.
 * The "People Like Grapes" soda brand is a reference to the humorous statement by Gavin Free.
 * Weiss having a green apple in front of her in "Jaunedice" is most likely an allusion to "Snow White", Weiss' character basis.
 * "Dr. Piper" is the RWBY equivalent of the popular "Dr. Pepper" soda, while possibly also being a reference to the story of The Pied Piper.
