You've forgotten blueberries. Which leads me to believe that the Blue Wizards may have tasted somewhat fruity.

Maybe the blue wizards taste faintly of chemicals, like blue confectionery products such as blue Smarties or Slush Puppies? Either way, you'd want to prevent the kids from eating too many Blue Wizards or they'd get hyper on all those E numbers.

Saruman, being of Many Colours, would taste like Trifle.

Fortunately, the Blue Wizards were extremely rare, so I doubt they'd even catch one.

Yet all this is making me wonder: what does the guy who be short taste like?
Pork. Though it isn't worth eating me, due to lack of meat.

Um...interesting topic tgwbs.
Isn't it just. I can't believe we didn't have one before.

Do you suppose one could eat a Vala or not? I suppose any physical form they take could be consumed, presuming they were willing...

I am not sure what the Istari taste like but I am thinking the probably taste close to that of elves, but it is probably a little bit stronger, I am guessing that Gandalf and Radagast probably taste a little like Venison or goat.
Dragons probably taste a little like Aligator but even stronger, Dragon would be good with curry or cajun seasonings
Shelob and the Mirkwood spiders probably taste a little like crab.

1420!

..now now..did anyone wonder how gollum would have taste like (though i'm not willing to have a bite)..

Though there would not be much meat and you had to munch hard on his bones..do you think he might taste like fish, since he loved fish so much.. But we do also know gollum had every now and then had digested some small orcs as well..i think he will produce the stinkiest meat ever..much more stinky than orcs itself..

So as the smell of his meat would be unbearable leave alone having it for dinner. Prove: Even Shelob do not want to eat him..i dont think its just because gollum worship he..i'm 100% sure gollum would not taste good

A comparison of the Dwarf and the Warthog

Now, humans taste like pork (pig).
Dwarves are small, hairy, aggressive humans.
Warthogs are small, hairy, aggressive pigs.
Dwarves taste like warthog.
Quad erat demonstrandum.

Quote:
In German, at least, (don't know about other languages) the term "blue", when used in cooking, refers to preparing a fish (trout, especially) in an infusion of vinegar. So if applied to the Blue Wizards, that would mean that they taste sour rather than bitter.
Most likely, considering Tolkien's love of Germanic languages.
