The preferred dwarf food is a manufactured, super- processed genuine imitation food-like product called Alpha Red, Beta Green, Gamma Yellow and Monthly Stew. [...] The Alpha foods are the best for dwarfs, with the most return in calories and essential minerals per volume of food consumed. The Beta is second best while the Gamma is considered a poor third. Monthly stew changes every 48 days with no apparent order to its contents and never with any contents listed. [...] The Alpha is processed dwarf, the Beta is human and the Gamma is elf. All else goes into the monthly stew. This fact is not known to anyone on all of Glorantha except for the dwarf Quicksilver specialists, the Food Processors, and the worst gossip-mongers, of course.
