Have Cooks and Brewers go into special versions of Strange Moods, simply called "Inspirations". They would be able to demand nearly ANYTHING, and once they've "invented" a Fortress Specialty, it enters the world's list of what is and what is not considered edible. "Fricasee of Kobold", for instance, would be a rare instance of dwarves eating a sentient, but only after an Inspiration. "Obsidian Fondue", "Rat Weed and Giantess Tallow Eclair", etc.

Failed Inspirations don't result in Berserks, but in mass food poisonings.

Cooking moods were covered in these two threads:

Well, at least I now know that if I ever want fast food, all I have to do is violently stab a kitten to death and bingo! a dwarven meal, anywhere. Well, anywhere there's a cat.

Is there a cooking overhaul mega thread yet? Given the number of times that this has apparently come up it might be a good idea to start one to track all the cooking suggestions in one place.

See page one of this thread for a large set of links.

And "Cooking Overhaul" is now at #106 with six votes.

There is one now. http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=69453.0

I know many parts of this are already in the dev list, and Toady has commented on it in DF talk so he already probably has many ideas ironed out... Anyway hopefully someone will find it useful.

I'll try and keep it reasonably up to date if anything new comes in.
