Official rulings

  1. Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type. (2024-11-08)
  2. You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability. (2024-11-08)
  3. Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards. (2024-11-08)
