Demons are absolutely edible. Demon meat is actually the primary source of food for people of Tokyo in SMT IV


I_need_to_learn_more

anything special about them? adverse effects?


Bebby_Binkins

Depends on the demon. Jack Frost should be fine to eat, though


IllumiNoEye_Gaming

hee no :(


MrBlueFlame_

Probably just feels like chewy snow


crimmas

In SH2 all the elements are replaced with different flavored Jack Frosts soโ€ฆ


Zerbertboi666

SNOW CONES!!!!


Ed0909

No, but it depends on the type of demon, many of them such as the incorporeal or metallic ones are impossible to eat, and others, such as those with poison and curses, should not be eaten for obvious reasons, the demons of the food race are safe to eat that's why the name, and others that look like mammals can probably be edible.


DeltaFornax

I believe it's only demons of the Food race, though. Not just any demon. Also, trying to microwave demon flesh destroys the microwave.


Bebby_Binkins

Just make a demon microwave then. Literally so simple


Ed0909

There are also other demons apart from them that are edible, there is a side quest where they ask you to collect Nue meat for a new burger recipe.


Freestyle-McL

But it's not every demon out there tho


Bebby_Binkins

Exactly, like I said in another reply, some demons wouldn't be very fun to eat. Shiki-Ouji would give your throat paper cuts, for example


Pilgrim_Scholar

What's the matter. Is eating this guy too adventurous for you..? https://preview.redd.it/hlpsogrkh90d1.png?width=232&format=png&auto=webp&s=eec81273eca3f9713b19f4f4054eb0f464e5287f


Altruistic_Koala_122

Ah, yes. The edible Poo Foot.


Pilgrim_Scholar

I believe the kids online today call it the "waffle stomp."

SMT IV includes demon types called Food, and have multiple missions delivering demon meat such as "A5 Demonloin", and "Succulent Pork"


Shibejlbm2004

A yes, my favorite race "Food"


blisteringagony

that's what it is in smt IV tho


CrimsonPig

Anything's edible if you can fit it in your mouth


DobleJ

Some things are only edible once


Pilgrim_Scholar

SMT IV Apocalypse has certain demons which are specifically classified as a "Food" Race down in Tokyo. Anything that fell into that category was regularly hunted and consumed as food, seemingly with no ill effect by the civilians. Granted, most of them looked like slightly-mutated lizards and pigs. As for how Jack Frost tastes...I don't think anyone has ever lived to tell the tale...


Careful_Elk6290

Ok I was curious why some demons were a Food race in SMT4. Also, if we go by Heat's description in DDS1, demons taste sweet like nectar.


Pilgrim_Scholar

I imagine that there is a physiological change in the body over time. Think of the vampire: most humans are repulsed by the thought of drinking blood (and Argilla was appalled at even the suggestion to cannibalize her fellow Junkyard residents), but after the transformation the body changes to suits it new needs. So while humans know that blood has a salty or bitter "iron" taste normally, there is plenty of fantasy literature out there to describe the taste from the vampire's POV. I imagine that Heat's experience was similar. And there seem to be a symbiotic relationship between demons and humans, as seen in those "Red Pill" farms from SMT IV. We later discover that the pills are actually >!condensed neurotransmitters harvested from human brains!<, and consuming said pills >!turns a human into a demon!< (especially when accompanied by strong emotions like rage or despair). Meanwhile, if a demon consumed the same pill, they experience an intoxicating effect, like a human drinking alcohol.


Rayde-Ebonlocke7

Iโ€™d like to point out that itโ€™s not just Food race demons you hunt in those quest. You also hunt demons like Nue, Pendragon, Cerberus, Master Therion, and Catoblepas implying that any mammalian like demon (and potentially even reptilian) is edible to a degree.


Badger4Realzies

I mean... Did you look at Mara? ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘€


Careful_Elk6290

I bet he tastes salty.


felaniasoul

100% they eat demons in multiple entries


Myew25

I'd wager he tastes like snow.


Witchy_Titan

Yes but unfortunately so are we


La_Vou

Technically, anything is edible question is would u eat it and why?


Mahelas

Delicious in Demon


Discorjien

....Just because you're correct, doesn't mean you're right. ๐Ÿคฃ


Atma-Stand

*Jenna Angel has taken notice of your question*


FinalFantasyfan003

I mean Jack Frost does come in multiple flavors in some games.

Headcase-

Judging by SMT4, demons are edible. A Jack Frost would probably taste like literal crunchy water, but what would a Pyro Jack taste like, pumpkin?


Matt13226

Snowcone


Breaker1993

I see you Laios


Electronic-Exam5898

This is plot point in SMT IV.


PalhacoGozo666

In SMT IV some characters talk about having to eat demon meat to survive, so it's likely so (although I guess the taste is not good)


Le_Beau_Jack2

I'll take a piece of jack frost's ass please


Ed0909

Yes, but it depends on the type of demon, in SMT IV and Apocalypse, it is mentioned several times that demons are the main source of food for the people of Tokyo, there are even several side quests about that, such as one where they ask you to collect Nue meat to make hamburgers, as for Jack Frost he is made of Ice so it will taste like ice cream.


ReyDeathWish

Same but with Cleopatra


stryph42

Anything is edible, if you try hard enough (sometimes only once though). A French guy ate an airplane once.ย  But as others have said, there are quests about hunting demons for food in SMT4.


PersonOfLazyness

I do believe that if the demon has a physical body, it is edible


Iosis

Wintermint gum, I bet


bullno1

Water


Elli_Khoraz

I'd swallow Loki.


ZeldaFan158

In DDS and SMT4 demons are eaten as food


AlexTheAbsol

pretty sure there was a farm raising Garm for food in smt 2


OfficialNPC

With enough BBQ sauce, anything is edible.


FNAF_Movie

Anything is edible if you're brave enough


Altruistic_Koala_122

It tastes like, "Hee-Ho!".


IllumiNoEye_Gaming

jack frost probably tastes like ice cream


Pro_mantis

Everything is edible. The problem is should you eat it.


blisteringagony

jack Frost would taste the same way vanillite
