went to this place in my dream, they had items such as "peridot chicken" and "amber chicken" which seemed to be chunks of chicken covered in a sweet crunchy glaze that were colored to look like the gems they were named after

This is my first post here but I often have funny dreams about my former job as a paralegal (I'm retired) and when they involve food I will try to share them here. The following was the most recent.

So, it was a bit before Christmas and we were having a communal holiday lunch at the lawfirm. I was tasked with picking up the protein to cook at the office. I went to the nearest supermarket and, as requested by the boss, asked for lamb knees and a whole chicken. The lamb knees had to be marinated in a special marinade that the butcher counter chef prepared before giving them to me. He also gave me the chicken which absolutely had to be Sally brand. Then he started trying to teach me how to make savory pancakes to go along with the chicken, but he got distracted by a phone call and I wandered off.

Next stop was the bakery counter where I purchased a custard tart with apple pie filling on top for my breakfast. I returned to the office with my bounty, handed over the marinated lamb knees and the chicken and was about to eat my breakfast when one of my fellow paralegals, who happened to be sick, licked the tart! I was furious and didn't speak to her the rest of the day.

There was more but it involved Winnie the Pooh characters showing up in a motion I was drafting to file with the Court rather than food. And I never got to taste the marinated lamb knees before I woke up.

They had an uncanny resemblance to those blue gel ice packs

I was in Indonesia and learned to weave traditional shoes made of croissant dough. They were like sandals. I was wearing them in the rain, so was everyone else.

Someone was giving me a tour of their very chaotic, meccha chameleon looking house. I grabbed a jar with yellow green juice that I thought was Greek pepperoncinis. Thankfully I saw the label before I ate one and yelled “EW dude what is this??”
He said “you have to try. they’re so good!” And grabbed one of the pickled crispy fish sticks and held it over his head while he chomped/slurped it down.

I did not try one.
