== [[Literature]] ==
* ''[[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]''; The bottle Alice finds labeled "Drink Me" contains a potion that Alice finds delicious, the flavor described as a mix of cherry tart, custard, pineapple, roast turkey, toffee, and hot buttered toast.
* ''Everything'' Willie Wonka's factory produces in ''[[Charlie and the Chocolate Factory]]''.
* The fruit in "[[Goblin Market]]" by Christina Rossetti. Unfortunately it's also a metaphor for drugs. Or sex. Or... [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic|something.]] (Maybe temptation itself.) Once Laura eats some she loses the will to eat anything else, it's that delicious—but from that day on the goblin sellers of the fruit are invisible to her.
* ''The Queen's Museum and Other Fanciful Tales'' by Frank Stockton: The story "Christmas Before Last" has the Fruit of the Fragile Palm. It's similar to a coconut, but the inside is so delicious that it's worth as much as diamonds or pearls.
