No, that would be Maiar who can choose their appearance, not Elves.
According to The Hobbit, the Wood-Elves were feasting at a fire, and Bilbo and the Dwarves found that Quote:
The way Galion, the butler, is described, I could imagine that he would be well-rounded, since he loved drinking and feasting. Now, we can quibble about The Hobbit not being quite canonical for Middle-earth as it is written in LotR. We could also debate whether the other Elves in Rivendell and Lothlorien might have had other eating habits than the Wood-Elves. And of course, it is possible that the Elves in the Undying Lands had changed their menus completely. At any rate, this is all the written evidence I could find concerning the diet of Elves in Middle-earth. Perhaps HoME has more...
