chefs from Starwars, Startrek, B5, and Farscape are brought together on Iron Chef! who makes the best dish?!

For once, I believe Star Trek's cuisine will reign supreme. We've got more info to go on, at least.
Food doesn't play much of a role in Star Wars, at least in the films.
I've never seen anything I would care to eat on Farscape.
Don't remember much from Babylon 5, either.
Blood Pie, anyone?

"How you grow so big eating food of this kind?"

Isn't that Yoda's commentary on Star Wars food?

On the other hand, a major staple in Farscape, from the episodes I saw seemed to be... food cubes? Is that what they were called? Hell, I'd rather eat Spam.

Considering that freshness of ingredients is one of, if not the most, important components of fine cuisine, hyperdrive most assuredly brings home the bacon, as it were.

One of the Iron Chefs wins, of course.

Garibaldi's cooking was supposed to be pretty damned good. And I'm sucker for Italian food so I'll go with B5.

Xzior's moonglow chef. To live in a galaxy like that and be one of only a handful of people who can properly make a dish has got to be prestigious.

Trek will bring some grotesque Klingon food with tentacles sticking out. Most food we've seen in SW hasn't been too appetizing either (Luke's farm, the Transport in AOTC). The only food that came close to gourmet was when Anakin and Padme were eating and that looked like just a bunch of fruit.
Don't know enough about Farscape to give any details.
B5 of course will bring Sweedish meatballs.

B5 hands down.

ST would probably bring something that Voyager found on an alien planet that looked like it tasted good. Until it starts eating the judges of course....

SW would bring one of the assorted wafers (Lukes lunchbox TESB) weeners (again lunchbox) foul tasting grool (Yodas slop, Padme and Anakins food on the frieghter) or stuff that looks normal, save that it's blue.

I bring a bowl of ramen noodles I just made 5 minutes ago. I win.

I dont think anyone ever got big eating ration bars?
Though yoda's idea of good food was bug stew so I'd be a little suspect of his view....

I'd have to go with a narn chef and their sweedish meatballs because its the only food for it all that isnt

a) wriggling
b) crawling
c) Jumping
d) escaping.....

I say B5, since most of the food we saw on that show were designed by humans, for humans (ie that surprise present for Ivanova, Garibaldi's cooking, etc)

And as for alien foods on that show, I can say only one thing:

SPOO!!!!

Isnt spoo the sighing animal? Whats the name of that food that every culture seems to have, besides the english name for it -- swedish meatballs..

And Garibaldi likes Bagna Caude

Granny (from Farscape) wins, and loses.
Her dish makes everyone violently sick from both ends, leaving the tasters either dead or incapable of eating anything else for the next few days.
