I do a lot of thinking about food in November. I know our Canadian Bookworms have already celebrated Thanksgiving, but it closes out the month of November in the United States. But I'm also thinking about cozy foods and drinks as the weather gets cooler, like chili, soups, grilled cheese sandwiches, pumpkin spice lattes, and hot chocolate.

You can also use some animals this month if they are normally eaten. Examples like turkey, fish, lamb are fine, and while there are people who eat piranha and cobra, don't use exotic animals unless it is something you normally eat.

You can also use the words "eat" and "drink".

Examples: The Cider House Rules by John Irving
Stef Soto, Taco Queen by Jennifer Torres

Sure, we can add all the meals: breakfast, lunch, dinner, supper, snack, as well as meal.
