Non-Human Foods

It is known that some xenos foods, such as that of the Eldar, are edible by the humans of the Imperium of Man. During the time of the Great Crusade, Eldar food was consumed by the Space Marines of theEmperor's Children Legion, which may have been possible because of the enhanced nature of the Astartes' physiology, because the Eldar knew what was palatable to humans, or because Eldar physiology is similar enough to that of Mankind that their food meets human taste and nutritional requirements. Xenos-cultured forms of wheat have also been consumed by the populations of Imperial worlds, especially in times of famine, though this is illegal under Imperial law, as is the possession of all other xenos technologies or cultural artefacts.
