'''Food''' are [[item]]s which can be fed to a users [[Neopet]] to reduce their hunger.  Food is a basic need for Neopets, and the first shop in Neopia is the [[Food Shop]].

Food items are one of the most diverse kinds of items.  There are the the cheap, ([[omelette]]s and [[jelly]]), the expensive ([[Gourmet Food]]), and the odd (Gross Food).

==Food Types==
Besides the basic ''Food'' category of food items, there are many differnet categories of food which come from different worlds and shops.

===Baked===
''...to be added...''

===Candy===
Basically, this is your chocolates and a few fruity candies here and there, or both. Buying a gourmet item from the shop will earn you an [[avatar]].

===Pizza===
''...to be added...''

===Gross Food===
Gross food is a special type of food that you dont see too much of in the regular shops.  However, they can be obtained in many different ways, like in the dailies.  Due to their easy to get nature, gross foods are often extremely cheap, especially on the shop wizard.  An odd quirk is that when searched, gross foods do not have a "see if this item is in stock" or "find this item in the shop wizard" sign.  But dont let that deter you from getting one if you need it (may be a kitchen quest requirement).  You will usually find these under 100 np in peoples' shops. If you feed your Neopet with Gross Food, they will gross out, saying gross words such as "Yuck!" of "That was horrible :(".

===Coffee===
''...to be added...''

===Healthy Food===
This is a pretty straight forward category. It includes veggies like broccoli and leeks. What you find at the health food shop is for the most part (except for Neopets food) is much what you may find in a health food store--lots of fresh fruits and veggies, vitamins, veggie burgers, granola bars, etc.

===Smoothie===
''...to be added...''

===Tropical Food===
These foods are sold on Mystery Island and are the centerpiece to [[Gadgadsbogen]]. There are quite a number of tropical foods, with new ones released every year around March 4th. Usually, there are a number of tropical foods retired on [[Gadgadsbogen]], replaced with the new ones released on that day.

===Space Food===
''...to be added...''

===Aquatic Food===
Food which is bought from [[Maraqua]]. As of July 2008, the only store which sells Aquatic food is [[Kelp]], though there used to be an official store in Old Maraqua, and some food items are given out as prizes for such things as the [[Advent Calender]]. Food of this type is sometimes confused with food which comes from [[Underwater Fishing]], though food from there is of the basic subtype "Food".

===Slushie===
Slushies are foods that come in different sizes, such as small, medium, large, and mega. Several slushie flavors are very gross yet not considered a gross food.

===Snow Food===
Snow Food is basically food that looks like it's been sculpted from snow or has snow in it or on it. Snow Foods can be bought from the [http://www.neopets.com/objects.phtml?type=shop&obj_type=37 Super Happy Icy Fun Snow Shop].

===Tyrannian Food===
[[Tyrannia|Tyrannian]] Food is usually prehistoric/dinosaur-themed and most of it can be bought at the [http://www.neopets.com/objects.phtml?type=shop&obj_type=42 Tyrannian Foods] shop. Omelettes from the [http://www.neopets.com/prehistoric/omelette.phtml?rand=2654 Giant Omelette] also fall into this category.

===Spooky Food===
Spooky food is one of the more important foods in Neopets. The [[Esophagor]] and even the [[Kitchen Quest]]s may need some of it, and it is important to the [[Brain Tree]] Quests as well. Spooky food pretty much comes in 2 types: the cheap mass consumption types that are available in user stores for 100 np or less, and the super rare foods that sell for tens of thousands of [[Neopoints]]. Spooky foods may be bought in the shop at the [[Deserted Fairground]], or bought on the [[Shop Wizard]].

===Hot Dog===
''...to be added...''

===Desert Food===
'''Desert Food''' was released on June 21, 2001, along with the release of the [[Lost Desert]]. They are bought from [[Foods of the Lost Desert]] and also given by [[Coltzan's Shrine]], and the [[Fruit Machine]]. Some Desert Food is damaged, burned or lowered in value in some way, and are therefore sold at a much lower price. 

===Faerie Food===
''...to be added...''

===Jelly Food===
Jelly food, unlike many other types of food, can only be bought in [[Jelly World]].  These incorporate many foods that are just made of jelly, and a large portion of it consists of jellies that you can take for free, just like the giant omelette, once a day.  These jellies are 2 servings, and can become a stable food source for a pet.

===Medieval Food===
Medieval food usually consists of gruel, stones, etc.
and can be purchased at (usually) low prices at Meridell Foods.

===Brightvale Fruit===
''...to be added...''

===Kiko Lake Food===
Kiko Lake food usually consists of edible flavored rocks.

===Kreludan Food===
''...to be added...''

===Qasalan Food===
''...to be added...''

===Altadorian Food===
''...to be added...''

===Exotic Foods===
The newest food category to Neopia as of 2007, with Asian-themed foods like wasabi, or a variety of sushis, and so on. They can be purchased at the [http://www.neopets.com/objects.phtml?type=shop&obj_type=101 Exotic Foods] shop in [[Shenkuu]].

==Soup Faerie==
For those too poor to afford food for their pet, the [[Soup Faerie]] will fill their needs.  People with under 3000 NP can visit the Soup Faerie in the [[Neopian Marketplace]] and have their pets fed for free.  The Soup Faerie can't be fooled, she knows how much money you have in the [[bank]] as well as your shop till.

==Gourmet Food==
Gourmet foods are expensive foods that count for the [[Gourmet Club]].  Gourmet foods that a pet has eaten are automatically kept track of.  Pets that have eaten the most gourmet food get a trophy or an honorary member card on their user page.
Remember, gourmet foods must have a rating of 90-100 and are consequently very difficult to get, although there are a few that are cheap.

==Eating For Free==
It is quite easy for a user to feed their Neopets from ''dying'' to ''bloated'' without spending much NP, due to the fact Neopets creates more food each day than is actually feed to Neopets. there are also places which feed your Neopets without having to use any items or very little NP.
