Yellowjackets

The feast isn't a recipe here, on purpose. In the season two episode "Edible Complex," Jackie's body — meant to be cremated — is left in the fire too long and ends up cooked instead of reduced to ash. The starving survivors eventually eat what's left, a moment the show stages as both a literal wilderness scene and a stylized, ceremonial "bacchanal" sequence intercut with it. It's the show's central image, and it doesn't belong in a recipe catalogue — there's no honest, cookable dish to reconstruct here, so it stays a Food Note.

It isn't a one-time event. Shauna eats a piece of Jackie's body in the season two premiere, before the group-wide feast in the following episode. Season three's "Croak" repeats the pattern with Coach Ben's body, cooked over a fire and found by outside visitors who mistake the smell for barbecue. Both get the same treatment as the original feast: acknowledged here, not turned into a dish.

The cabin's canned goods are a dead end, on purpose. Early in season one, the survivors find a hunting cabin stocked with canned food, only to discover most of it has spoiled. The show never identifies exactly what was in the cans clearly enough to reconstruct, so it's mentioned here rather than given a recipe page.

Mushrooms cut two ways across the show. Foraged mushrooms appear as real food (see the "Doomcoming" stew) and, separately, as a drug: in season three, Travis and others consume hallucinogenic mushroom tea, and a subplot involves a cave containing naturally occurring hallucinogenic gas that Lottie's group deliberately breathes in. That's ritual and substance use rather than a dish, so it stays out of the recipe catalogue too.
