#slocum's BuzzBites

[scarletsfeed-art-dumping-ground]

I'm gonna drop this here, since I think some of you will enjoy it-!

My BDay came up this last week and we had a Fallout Themed party!

Made lots of wasteland food, nuka-cola from scratch, and spent extra time making props- boxes, cans, labels, and most important- caps!

Lineup was pretty big, but it was blast, the food came out yummy, and the aesthetic was on point 👌🏻

Food:

YumYum Deviled Eggs

Dandy Boy Apples

Deezer's Lemonade

Crispy Squirrel Bits

Maize/Razorgrain

Fancy Lad Snack Cakes

Slocum's BuzzBites

Blamco Mac and Cheese

Pork N Beans

Nuka cola

Vault Tec Lemon Cake

[dantesunbreaker]

Spent pretty my entire first day of vacation making recipes from the official Fallout cookbook! Got some Slocum's Buzzbites, coffee cream filled donuts with cinnamon sugar coating. And then some Nuka Cola Quantum! Today I'll be making some BlamCo Mac & Cheese.

[princehendir]

Eventually some ghoul offers you 400 caps to go find the last remaining serving of the BreadCo.™ Jazzy Lemon Beverage™ which is hidden in a freezer in a basement somewhere because like, yeah ok sure some people ~died~ but also he had some back before the war and it was sooooooo good that he just can't stop thinking about it and is willing to risk it.

Cannot emphasize enough how much the Panera caffeinated lemonade sounds like a Fallout bit

What are your characters favorite foods? <3

I'm dividing these into settings 💞

Oracle:

1. Jelani: huge fan of sushi and a total slut for cherries. They love cherry flavored slushies. Loves cherry flavored blood lollipops (I may have to explain this lmao).

2. Angelus: it's not a fan of food, it has a pretty bad relationship with food but will never say no to dumplings (both fried or steamed though it prefers steamed) and noodles. Cream soda is his favorite drink followed by energy drinks. Favorite fruits are raspberries. Likes raspberry flavored blood lollipops.

3. Loke: like his brother he likes food. His very favorite is pizza and cheeseburgers. Will happily eat his weight in mangoes. Coffee! Lots of coffee! Coffee! As well as sweet teas his husband makes.

Skyrim:

1. Jelani: blood. He's a vampire that's all he can eat and drink now. It used to be beef and ash yam stew and loved honey nut treats because of the crunch. He wasn't into any type of alcohol. Water and juice for him.

2. Angelus: he's a pescatarian that leans more heavily on a vegetarian diet. And no, he's not one of those bleeding heart "oh, please don't kill animals for food, that's abuse" asswipes. He was just raised that way. His absolute favorite dish is potato soup with some lavender dumplings, will eat his weight (lol twink ass motherfucker) in sweets, his favorite is juniper berry crostata and will often be found indulging on expensive wines and other expensive alcoholic drinks (he's a rich little snob, what did you expect?). Ever since he joined the family he's become a huge fan of tea particularly tea made by Uthorim.

3. Loke: beef and ash yam stew. Not too crazy about sweets though he'll happily indulge in berries as a treat. Angelus introduced him to lavender dumplings though and quickly got hooked. Will drink any alcoholic drink and LOVES tea made by his husband.

Fallout:

1. Jelani: his appetite isn't what it used to be, it's a miracle if he takes more than 5 bites out of a meal and food's kind of become a sort of second thought for him. He does like noodles (because of something between him and Angelus) and grilled radstag with veggies. Favorite thing to drink is Nuka-Cherry, used to love drinking alcohol but stopped drinking it all together after he reunited with Loke and Uthorim. Has a serious sentimental attachment to gumdrops. Likes tea because it tastes good and for sentimental reasons that have a lot to do with Uthorim.

2. Angelus: food is his favorite food. He loves food, loves to eat. Think the only reasons he's a skinny ass twink is genetics and moves around a lot. Goes feral for noodles. Hates vegetables. Favorite drink is Nuka-Quantom. Loves any and all sweets and candies and is often seen chewing gum.

3. Loke: Ribeye steak, fried egg (from any critter) and a lot of veggies on the side. Not a fan of seafood. Loves cotton candy bites as well as Slocum's BuzzBites. Will drink any and all alcohol but coffee is his second favorite drink. Sweet teas that his husband makes are his absolute favorite!

Slocums Joe’s Buzzbites. From The Official Fallout Cookbook. Dine in with the apocaplypse with these tasty morsels. Goes great with coffee or Nuka Cola.

[commonwealthoccurences]

Question. If you were able to get one fallout product to eat (Vim!, Fancy Lads, Nuka-Cola/Quantum, Sugar Bombs, Cram, etc) which one would you want

Oh no this is tough. Honestly, probably Nuka Cola since it’s such an iconic part of the game, but if I were to choose anything else, it would be the Slocum’s Buzzbites! I’m a sucker for donuts. What about you?

[slocum-dodson]

You can enjoy a cup of Joe and Buzzbites at every Slocum's Joe location.

Fallllout food set continues~ Two from the fallout cookbook, one that was mentioned but never actually shows up in game annnd the pudding is there cuz i wanted to draw pudding I’ve lowkey been chipping at one for Danse sooo if you have any Danse food ideas slide em my way~

🍄

🍄 What are your OCs favourite snacks? Their favourite comfort food which always cheers them up when they’re down? Favourite meal to make? Do they enjoy baking and cooking and are they any good in the kitchen?       Pre-war, he really enjoyed Slocum’s Joe donuts. He LOVES coffee and donuts. Post-war, I think... like considering how unrealistic all that prewar food being around and still good after soooooo many years, his favorite would be something he makes himself in my fic, cake/cupcakes made with a type of razorgrain hubflower white cake with a honey hubflower icing. But, he also found those buzzbites, and again he LOVES coffee and donuts so like... a donut.. filled with coffee... Literally heaven. He ofc got the resippy from the Slocum’s hq, and he tweaks it a bit to make it easier to make post-war and makes them for himself and Nick whenever they’re at home ♥         Those honey-hubflower cakes would also be his favorite comfort food, a lot of the comfort comes from his love of baking, and that he loves his garden, loves foraging, and loves doing all these things with Nick, so its just all wonderful for him. Besides, baking cupcakes and enjoying them with the love of your life at home on nice rainy afternoons is always comforting.       A favorite meal of his is just some pan fried carrots, tatos, mushrooms, silt beans, and a little mutfruit tossed in near the end somtimes. Everyone loves a little veggie hash. His favorite veggie is mushrooms, though.... would mushrooms be considered veggies...? Either way he eats a lot of them.       He loves baking and cooking, though he enjoys baking a lot more. Nick is a better cook, Jay is a better baker. Sure neither of them need to eat, but its a big comfort and he almost always shares with Blake and his family and his other friends. They also often make/take food to Ellie, and even Solara when they can catch her

Rate the food in fallout 4 from least to most appetizing, with your reasoning

This one took a little while. (I’m not listing chems, ingredients (like flowers,) or drinks.) I don’t have reasoning for every single one, but here we go:

Moldy food - Food that’s had, what, 210 years to rot? Gag.

Brain fungus - texture. Nope

Food paste - It’s ‘completely devoid of flavor’ ‘turns skin pink’ ‘has psychological effects.’ Oh, and if you shoot it, it bleeds.

Glowing fungus - I don’t like mushrooms. These seem like mushrooms with radiation illness, so... pass.

Blood pack - it’s.. it’s blood. We don’t know anything about where it’s from, and how long it’s been there. No thanks

Irradiated blood - See ‘blood pack’

Glowing blood pack - See ‘blood pack’

Potted meat - more for moral reasons than anything else

Mole rat meat - raw meat is just... gross. (applies down to 26)

Mongrel dog meat

Queen mirelurk meat

Radroach meat

Radscorpion meat

Radstag meat

Softshell mirelurk meat

Stingwing meat

Synthetic gorilla meat

Yao guai meat

Deathclaw meat

Ghoul meat

Mutant hound meat

Bloatfly meat

Bloodbug meat

Brahmin meat

Cat meat

Mirelurk meat

Pristine deathclaw egg - Raw eggs are just as bad (down to 30)

Mirelurk egg

Radscorpion egg

Deathclaw egg

Razorgrain - It’s grain. Probably not tasty or pleasant, but it’s not unhealthy. Probably.

Gourd

CornMelon

Mutfruit

Tato

Tarberry

Carrot

Vegetable soup - Fresh ingredients that you don’t have to eat raw? Acceptable.

Mirelurk egg omelette - Cooked eggs are okay (down to 42)

Radscorpion egg omelette

Deathclaw egg omelette

Tasty deathclaw omelette

Baked bloatfly - Cooked meat is okay

Mirelurk cake

Mole rat chunks

Mutant hound chops

Mutt chops

Radstag stew

Squirrel bits

Squirrel on a stick

Squirrel stew

Stingwing filet

Yao guai ribs

Yao guai roast

Roasted mirelurk meat

Cooked softshell meat

Crispy squirrel bits

Grilled radroach

Grilled radstag

Iguana bits

Iguana on a stick

Deathclaw steak

Ribeye steak

Radscorpion steak

Bloodbug steak

Mirelurk queen steak

Blamco Brand Mac and Cheese

Salisbury Steak - If it’s lasted this long, it ain’t meat

Canned dog food - It’s better than any raw meat, right?

Dandy Boy Apples - If it’s lasted this long, they ain’t apples

InstaMash

Pork n' Beans

Slocum's Buzzbites

Yum Yum Deviled Eggs

Skeeto Spit

Potato Crisps - modern chips go stale after a day, so these are probably worse than cardboard

Cram

Gum drops

Bubblegum

Iguana soup

Institute food packet - It’s sanitary and probably tasty enough

Noodle cup

Sugar Bombs

Sweet roll

Fancy Lads Snack Cakes - like twinkies, I think they’d taste awfully processed, but the taste wouldn’t be bad...? Maybe?

Happy Birthday sweet roll - It’s literally the same as the Sweet Roll but there are candles on it so it’s better

And, at #87, most appetizing: perfectly preserved pie.

[slocum-dodson]

This is all true. The loyal customers of Slocum's Joe know the value of coffee. Even those monsters who denied the Buzzbite the right to live. I'm happy they were all destroyed by the light of atomic fire.

[purkinje-effect]

i am disappointed to learn that you can’t make slocum’s buzzbites in the contraptions workshop food processor equipment

[shellheadtmarc]

some more fallout 4 companion verse bits and bobs;;

+ the notebook that gets referenced a lot is a pocket-sized moleskine, black hard cover with grid pages.  you know, pocket in the back, ribbon bookmark (that sucker’s long gone, he’s using a paper clip to mark his place), and a band to keep it closed (also torn off ages ago, he’s got one of those generic office rubber bands wrapped around it twice to hold it closed).  he keeps a few more paper clips in the back pocket for extra page marking, and he’s about halfway through it, as of this moment.  the writing inside is super small, super cramped, because he’s milking it for every last bit of use he can - it’s not like moleskine’s making them anymore. + because of that, if you hit up a bookstore or stationary store with him, and they have any kind of notebook, he’ll snag every last one he can feasibly carry.  he has been known to carry around a fuzzy pink wirebound, because he ain’t give a fuck.  he’s also bad about raiding art supply stores for any remaining drafting and onionskin paper.  that he uses for schematics. + i’ve said it before, i’ll say it again, the best gift he can receive at this point outside of parts he can use to make things with are stashes of pens and pencils.  every last pen and pencil he sees he picks up (ask me how much i get to hear maccready ingame whine about it).  on his person at any given moment he’s carrying one of each, and he’ll use every pencil down to the nub, until it’s too small to hold.  again, it’s not like he can scamper off and buy a new montblanc.

+ he uses analog methods these days because his servers are back in new york and it’s easier to just scribble a note down for himself instead of digitally doing so.  flipping through his notebooks will net a person all kinds of things, like to-do lists, supply lists, sketches/rudimentary designs of things, a bunch of math that’d make the average joe’s eyes cross, random thoughts he didn’t want to forget, ideas, layouts for settlements, and more.  flipping through said notebooks is actually highly not recommended without explicit permission. + things in his pack include:  a small sewing kit, because clothes get torn and need to be repaired - you can’t just throw them away if they get a little rip now and again.  a small first aid kid that includes some bandaids (plasters for you folks across the pond), a stimpak or two, a small bottle repurposed to hold a few buffout.  a pair of scissors.  a light change of clothes, including a knit cap in the chance he needs it, especially in winter months.  a small tin box with a lid for caps, because he actually doesn’t spend a lot of them and those are an emergency stash for things like food and medical treatment (box is folded in his clothes so it doesn’t rattle).  some sort of food, be it mres he’s gotten somewhere or just some slocum’s joe buzzbites.  a few cans of purified water.  a flip lighter.  duct tape.  a small bottle of wonderglue.  extra ammo for red ryder and burninator.  the rest is empty, for any promising scavenging he may get up to. + the preferred footwear of the post-nuclear world is combat boots, and he keeps a combat knife tucked in one. + he almost universally has pilot or welding goggles perched on his head.  you’ll only see him actually wear the welding goggles when he’s actually welding, but it’s a fashion thing, don’t worry about it. + he also carries a switchblade in a pocket.  if he’s wearing a jacket, what pocket varies.  ain’t trust no mungo these days. + fingerless gloves are also a thing he wears more often than not, until, thanks to the fev enhancement, he gets too warm and strips them off. + he has a brotherhood of steel scribe’s hat with the hood ripped out he wears when he doesn’t have the goggles.  it’s just become common practice for him to have something like that on his head, and seeing him without either is a rare occurrence. 

[bastardswxrd]

important headcanons to consider: Hancock

can they use chopsticks?: He actually can, but it took a lot of practice. It’s his preferred method of eating Noodle Cups, especially at Takahashi’s.

what do they do when they cant sleep?: Chems, booze, or hook ups. Sometimes two or more at once. He has a bit if chronic insomnia, even without the guilt of the things he’s done in the past, and if the chems, booze, or sex doesn’t work, he’ll grab something to read until he bores himself to sleep, like Picket Fences or Total Hack.

what would they impulse buy at the grocery store?: There’s not really anything he WOULDN’T impulse buy, if he was high enough, but it’s hard for him to resist candy, or issues of comics he’s been looking for.

what order do they wash things in the shower?: When he had hair, that was always first- when he had the luxury of a shower. These days he mostly just dips himself in the cleanest body of water he can find or stands out in the rain a while. 

what’s their coffee order?: He’s never had anything but Slocum Joe’s Buzzbites, but he’d probably enjoy flavored coffee, especially for the novelty of it. 

what sort of apps would they have on their smartphone?: Assuming he had a phone, it would probably have lot of games, especially retro ones like Red Menace(Donkey Kong), and something for music, maybe some kind of ebook reader for his comics and magazines.

how do they act around children?: Hancock can be little awkward around children, not entirely sure how to act around them, but he’s gentle and warm, and will happily join them in any games they want to rope him into.

what would they watch on tv when they’re bored and nothing they really like is on?: Mmmmmmmmmmmmm In time travelling verses, he’d probably gravitate towards channels that play retro shows and movies for the nostalgia of it. Otherwise he might toss on like, home improvement/buying/etc shows and use them for background noise and to drool over pretty rooms.

Say, how many BuzzBites does your Slocum's Joe BuzzBites recipe make, anyway?

Goodness, that recipe of mine has been making the rounds lately, hasn't it?As I recall, that recipe was specifically scaled to only make 4 - 6 donuts, as I was effectively making a test batch for myself at the time of writing and didn't want a bunch of wasted dough. It should be easy enough to scale up for a full dozen if need be.
