Sugar bomb, sugar bomb, you're my sugar bomb. Also mutfruit.

Mila Dubrovsky.

2. Comfort food/s?

Alcohol! Other than that – whatever Russian cuisinedishes she can recreate. She managed to make pancakes and radstag meatdumplings right. She doesn’t actually remember how exactly they should taste,so she settled for a taste she finds enjoyable. In my opinion, she needs moregarlic and onions, but she likes her food anyway.

3. What are their 3 essential food items they takewith them on any journey?

Other than water, 3 things: bread or crusts, somethingmeaty, but not canned meat, because fuck that, and mutfruits and/or carrots.Usually she bakes bread, dries some meat, and gets as many fruits andvegetables as she can. She avoids all the pre-war food like plague. Sheremembers she hated it even when it was relatively fresh.

5. What is a meal they have learnt to make in theWasteland that they actually enjoy?

She loves cake, omelette, and casserole. She makesthem from mirelurk or radscorpion eggs. She just really likes freshly cookedeggs. Sometimes she just bakes an egg a bit, and eats it while it’s still veryhot, and when she gets to the yolk, it explodes like a little volcano, andstarts running out, all over her fingers, and it’s messy, but she likes itanyway.

6. First meal after waking up?

You mean breakfast or after leaving the Vault 111?After the vault she baked radroaches and ate them. But then she also drank alot of whiskey, so they got out before she managed to digest them. ThenCodsworth made her a soup from a dog they killed, and it was better. Usuallyshe makes sandwiches for breakfast, or finishes leftovers from the previousmeal.

8. Foods they can not stand/will not eat?

Human flesh. And cats. She eats dogs regularly, butit's because they attack her. Cats are not hurting anyone, so she wouldn't killand eat them. And eating humans is just gross.

11. A meal they make for their love interest?

Danse is not picky about his food. In fact, he doesn'thave a problem with two centuries old cans. But Mila has, so it's like the purposeof her existence to make sure he doesn't eat shit. She makes soups for him,meat dishes, noodles. She knows he likes cakes, so she bakes something everyweek. Mirelurk casserole is a special dish, because it was the first of herculinary experiments that she shared with him, so they are having it quiteoften too.

12. Favourite drinks to pair with their meals?

Beer at first. Later switches to milk, when Shaunstarts living with her, and she decides to do something about all thatdrinking. All those annoying brahmins finally came in handy :)

13. Food they only eat on special occasions?

To celebrate New Year Eve she, like a proper Russian,makes the olivier salad, the post-nuclear version. Potatoes are replaces withtatos, pickles - with pickled gourd: there are also deathclaw meat andradscorpion eggs in it, and green peas are replaced with corn. It's such abastardized version of the iconic dish, but it's as close as she could get.

20. What is a meal/food they can not have now thatthey miss from the past?

Difficult question, because she doesn't actuallyremember any tastes from before the war. She vaguely remembers ice cream andchocolate, and she's curious about how they tasted. Also salmon sandwiches withbutter. She remembers she craved them during pregnancy, and kind of wishes shecould have them now.

Charlie Jones.

2. Comfort food/s?

Mac&Cheese, power noodles, vegetable soup. Must behot.

4. Favourite condiments, spices or flavours to add tomeals?

If she could, she would drown everything in ketchup.She has no idea how to use spices, to be honest.

5. What is a meal they have learnt to make in theWasteland that they actually enjoy?

Clean water, lol. Charlie can’t cook anythingenjoyable. But she noticed mutfruit is good for everything.

7. Favourite recipe?

Take a mutfruit, put it on your boyfriend… XD

9. Meals or foods that their companions introducedthem to, that they now love?

MacCready cooks meat very well. The secret is tomarinate it in beer or nuka-cola a couple of hours before cooking. This makeseven the muthound taste good!

10. Meals or foods that their companions introducedthem to, that they hate?

200+ years old sweet rolls. What were you thinking,Piper???

12. Favourite drinks to pair with their meals?

Ice-cold beer! Thanks to Drinking Buddy!

14. Favourite memory attached to food?

Mostly pre-war things. Nate loved good food, butCharlie was terrible at cooking. Usually Nate cooked for them, but after helost his arm, it was just making him angry and depressed. So they gotCodsworth, and started going out to eat somewhere at least once per week. Sheloved those dates: lovely dresses, good wine and music, Nate lookinghappy… Once during one of these she told him she was pregnant. It’s oddto remember those moment now, they seem like a dream, and it’s hard to believeit actually happened.
