Essence of Hobbit Stew - This luscious stew is traditionally served before going to war. Only Hobbits from a tiny enclave of The Shire eat this dish, as they were corrupted by Saruman and turned evil.

The aroma of this dish brings even wargs drooling to the doors of Nastyton in the South East of the Shire.
