You always have Astroburger as the most popular fast food in the Spinward Marches.
There is always the ever popular Soylent snack line!
And then there's the line from Judge Dredd, "Eat recycled food; it's good for the environment and okay for you!"
You have to figure only a few processed food companies could build enough brand appeal and recognition to move food across parsecs. Most food stuffs will be system specific, particularly since tastes would vary depending on the environment. Delicacies would be even more expensive/desirable away from their system of origin due to shipping costs alone.
IMTU, food is a commidity, but only because several of the sector's major worlds have severly degraded environments or suffer from extreme over population. Food companies even war on each other to protect genetically engineered stock or even market share!

Back when I was on the TML I recall a certain Larsen Whipsnade pushing the benefits of Groat burgers...
and getting in trouble with the Regina constabulary for attempting to barbeque a groat at a deserted space port somewhere on planet...
As for T20/COTI, I'm rather surprised that Trader Jim hasn't come out with COFFEE JUICE CAKE yet; I mean, it is a sort of obvious tie in, you know.
GT Far Trader has the survival ration bar, the description of which sounds allot like the chocolate Slim Fast@ bars that I've had [tastes like sawdust].
Who could ever forget 2300's Ratdogs!
Hmmm, Protein,Yumm!
Maybe more as I think about it, or not

Hello.
Strange somone should mention Trade Jim.
On one of the other threads they are selling Vorpal Bunnies Burgers and VB Jerrky.
I think the thread is a message from the government of Avelon.
BYE.

In the ISS URSULA online campaign, we also have the soft drink BLUE SUN, from the 'Firefly' series. It's become a running gag of sorts as my character's favorite beverage.
Beverages. Most agrarian cultures on earth have ber,wine,or both. Also vegatable infusions like coffee, tea, or cola. That won't change.
Ambassador G'Kar from Babylon 5,
"It's a strange thing, but every sentient race has its own version of these Swedish meatballs. I suspect it's one of those great universal mysteries which will either never get explained or which will drive you mad if you ever learned the truth."
Me? I think there will always be Twinkies and Fig Newtions.

Drinks? Don't mind if I do...
You can't have a bar that doesn't serve Sirian Panther Sweat! Where would Slippery Jim drink?
(Fill in the blank) Ale and FITB Wine are old standards.
For those who take their ripple straight up (you know who you are, it's just that you won't put down your bottle of Mad Dog to reply!) there's Old Misjump!
And quit griping about yer frikken number of stars, some of us abrasive @$$es don't have any
