Oh yes I did. In honor of the Catching Fire premiere at the end of this week, I have assembled the ultimate WIAW featuring What Katniss and Peeta Ate Wednesday in Catching Fire:
District 12
Greasy Sae’s Stew (Chapter 1)
Greasy Sae’s Stew is famous for containing meat of questionable origins and even though Katniss can now afford more expensive meals since winning the Hunger Games, this is still one of her favorites.
Tea and iced sugar cookies (Chapter 2)
When President Snow comes to visit Katniss before she leaves for her Victory Tour Katniss’s mother brings in sugar cookies ice by Peeta and some tea for the President to have.
Train
Lamb Stew with Dried Plums (Chapter 4)
While on the train the attendants try to please Katniss by serving her favorite meals.
Hot Chocolate (Chapter 4)
Hot chocolate is another thing that is served on the train during the Victory Tour.
President Snow’s Mansion
Creamy Pumpkin Brew (Chapter 6)
Pumpkin Stew is one of the first foods that Katniss tries at President Snow’s mansion at the conclusion of the Victory Tour.
Frothy Raspberry Soup (Chapter 6)
This chilled soup is another soup that is served at President Snow’s party.
Capital 12
Fresh Bread (Chapter 10)
Peeta always has freshly baked bread to give to Katniss’s family. Katniss gives some to the runaways that she finds while hunting.
Train
Warm Milk and Honey (Chapter 14)
Not being able to sleep, Katniss and Peeta watch a video of the Hunger Games while drinking some warm honey and milk that one of the train attendants made for them.
Training Center/Capitol
Sugar Cubes (Chapter 15)
Katniss first meets Finnick after the past victors are introduced, where he is eating sugar cubes by the handful meant for the horses.
Picnic (Chapter 17)
On the last night before going into their second Hunger Games Katniss and Peeta have a picnic on the roof of the training center.
Quarter Quells
Roasted Nuts (Chapter 20)
At first thinking they are poisonous Katniss tells Mags to spit out the nuts, but then she discovers that they are quite safe and taste like chestnuts when roasted against the force field that surrounds the arena.
Seaweed Bread (chapter 22)
The seaweed in this bread represents Finnick’s district and was a present during the games.
Spicy Red Sauce (chapter 25)
This spicy red sauce was a present from District 3.
Oysters (chapter 25)
Caught by Finnick, these oysters are the final meal of the competitors before they head into the jungle to finish their plan.

It is currently way past my bedtime and I can assure you that I will be sleeping into about 7:00 tomorrow morning. Don’t be concerned if you don’t see many comments/responses from me for a little while because I have a huge sales presentation on Thursday that I need to get working on!
I hope you have a Happy Wednesday! 🙂
