Foods and beverages by kind[]

Twilight Sparkle meeting the Apple family S01E01

Twilight's just in time to sample the Apple family food.

The characters in the show eat food raw on occasion, but ponies and other civilized creatures are depicted as having advanced cuisine, preparing sandwiches, stews, pies, cakes, confections, and other dishes.

Ponies are herbivorous and not shown eating meat, but in addition to plants, they eat and drink animal products like eggs and milk. They are shown tending to fields, gardens, vegetable patches, and flower patches. Apples are shown very often and are shown to be part of popular foods and beverages in Ponyville, such as cider. Other plants consumed by ponies are oranges, wheat, hay, oats, corn, and various flowers. Ponies often eat foods, such as potato chips, that are not recommended for horse feed.

Pinkie Pie about to eat another cake S1E10

Pinkie about to eat yet another cake.

Dragons are shown eating gems, gold, and silver, although some dragons, like Spike, are shown to eat more than just treasure, such as in The Ticket Master he eats an apple and a hay meal, and in Applebuck Season. Also, in The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000, he drinks apple cider. The large red dragon in Dragonshy has a hoard of treasure he presumably eats from, as does the green dragon in Owl's Well That Ends Well, and Spike's affection for gems is demonstrated in several episodes. He's shown eating gems in Over a Barrel, A Dog and Pony Show, Owl's Well That Ends Well, and Party of One. In Secret of My Excess, Spike eats a sapphire cupcake made by Mr. and Mrs. Cake for his birthday; in Enterplay's collectible card game, Equestrian Odysseys #75 C and #Pƒ10 cards of Spike each quote, "Sapphire cupcakes are good, ruby cupcakes are great, but garnet cupcakes are so much better!"; according to an August 5, 2015 tweet by the Enterplay collectible card game's Twitter account, "Pinkie made malachite cupcakes for Spike once, but they came out all soggy..."[1] Spike wants to bake a jewel cake in Just for Sidekicks. Discord is seen eating magical plunderseeds in a flashback in Princess Twilight Sparkle - Part 2.

Showing how Changelings feed off of love

A variety of carnivorous and omnivorous animals is portrayed in the show, such as weasels and mythological creatures. The hydra, for instance, is seen trying to hunt the ponies for food. Minerals are consumed by various creatures. Fluttershy feeds fish to a couple of ferrets and feeds birds with worms in Dragonshy. Owls such as Owlowiscious are carnivorous and hunt mice, which was exploited by Spike in an attempt to get Owlowiscious into trouble in Owl's Well That Ends Well. In the episode Baby Cakes, caterpillars are shown trying to eat apples in the Apple family orchard before.

There is a salt saloon in Over a Barrel that parallels saloons where alcohol is served; a "drunk" pony gets ejected from the establishment with salt around his mouth.

There are four kinds of creatures that feed on emotions. The windigos feed on hatred, as explained in Hearth's Warming Eve. Changelings eat love from other creatures, as stated in A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2 where Queen Chrysalis is stated to be feeding off Shining Armor's love for Princess Cadance, and as shown in Friendship is Magic comic book issue #3. The cloud gremlins feed on multiple types of negative emotions, as explained in Micro-Series comic book issue #2. Sirens also feed on others' negative emotions through hypnotic song, as shown in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks.

In the season four finale, Lord Tirek consumes ponies' magic, in one instance eating Shining Armor's magic like food.

In the episode The Last Roundup, Pinkie Pie mentions a Chimichanga-like dish that consists of "mashed up cherries in a tortilla that's deep-fried." She alters the name of this dish between 'Cherrychanga', 'Chimicherry', and 'Chimicherrychanga' several times in the course of her long-winded conversation with Applejack. However, she admits that she made it up herself. Applejack mentions that Cherry Jubilee, the owner of Cherry Hill Ranch, had a cherry stand at the rodeo selling cherry winks, cherry cheesecake, and cherry tarts.

In MMMystery on the Friendship Express, four desserts take the train to Canterlot for the National Dessert Competition. However, the competitors argue about whose dessert will win and make them the best bakers in all of Equestria. The competitors and their desserts are:

  • Pinkie Pie with the Cakes' Marzipan Mascarpone Meringue Madness (or simply as MMMM)
  • Gustave le Grand with his Exquisite Éclairs
  • Donut Joe with his "Donutopia", a small platter of donuts with sprinkles, resembling a city
  • Mulia Mild with her chocolate mousse moose the size of an actual moose

The next day, the desserts were partially eaten, causing Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle to start a case of which characters ate the desserts and found clues of those who ate the desserts. The accused characters who ate the desserts are:

In the end, the characters confess that they ate the desserts because the desserts look irresistible, and apologize to the owners of the desserts. The competitors then all agree to combine their desserts and form a new, huge dessert, which ends up winning the first prize. The episode ends with Pinkie Pie eating the whole cake in one bite... and ends up bloated... before eating the fourth wall. Applejack, although wanting a bit of cake at the beginning of the trip, was entirely innocent.

In the episode The Crystal Empire - Part 1, Applejack mentions in The Ballad of the Crystal Empire that the Crystal Ponies made sweets with crystal berries. In the same episode, Rainbow Dash offers a Crystal Pony "Crystal Empire berry pie" and "crystal corn on the cob", the latter of which has cube-shaped kernels.
