I’m one of those people who takes pleasure in flipping through cookbooksas long as I have something to munch on simultaneously, of course. Even as a kid I enjoyed them, my all-time favorite being Wookiee Cookies: A Star Wars Cookbook. Talk about creative! From “Dark Side Salsa” to “Hoth Chocolate”, this book covers all the edible Star Wars basics.
Or so I thought. Thanks to all you creative culinary craftsmen/women out there, it turns out that book is just the tip of the ice planet. Here are fourteen of my favorite Star Wars food finds!
1. Light Saber Pretzel Sticks

2. Padawan Pizzas
