Caring about the lore and using it to advertise a product are two different things.
Just because it has the name and maybe seems a bit like TES doesn't make it so
People make games. The right people make epic games. The wrong people make... everything else.

Whats with the new food recipes. Not only they are pure silly but also you removed some lore-friendly ingredients with some modern lemming foodie stuff

Examples:
- Acai Berries
- YERBA MATE (seriously?)
- Mint Mudcrab Mojito (where is my Daiquiri then, how about Orc Rusty Nail, or Moonsugar Cuba Libre, dont stop there, where is my Breton Bloody Mary and Outlaw Screwdriver) not to mention Gin Fizz (without soda ofc. cause soda is not lore friendly)
- Ginkgo
- Guarana
- ALE BEER IS NOT MADE FROM WHEAT
- I dont remember bananas in TES lore
- Ginseng
- Good luck making any kind of beer with just yeast, its called moonshine, its not a beer and it still needs sugar and potatoes.
- I dont know how did you make a Port wine with mead and yeast but you got to tell me your secret.
- and many more

Seriously, you dont care about the lore don't you Zenimax?

I'm waiting for my pink pony mounts then.

You know that every elder scrolls game changes the lore to suit the game. This is not lore breaking since this has nothing to do with the lore. With the addition of other Providences like Valenwood is pretty easy to have banansa in the game since they are tropical and the past elder scrolls games were not in a tropical setting. Now what is lore breaking is if they make dwaven race a playable race since they have never made a return back into existence at this time.

I don't know about this lorebreaking stuff but I find it hilarious that the OP is an expert on beer and moonshine and his name is Whiskey Bob.

Why worry about the lore anymore. I am sure it is already on its way out the window with the crown store. Just my opinion.

I just find it funny that you can kill a monkey and get the white meat and banana necessary to make the monkeypig cutlets

What people seem to not understand is the lore of TES was created by Bethesda, thus they can add,remove or change anything as they see fit and it does not break the lore. Remember we do not know much about what happened or when on in this era. All of the TES games are after the events of ESO.

Just so you know, everything added into ESO is adding to the lore, not breaking it.

ESO in the Elder Scrolls timeline is the earliest ES game, so everything that is in it is the new lore to the Elder scrolls franchise.

The only way ESO would be lore breaking is if it was set between the late 2nd-early 4th era and It went against what other games did, or If there was an already written upon lore that it goes against.

Example:
The left handed elves had an empire that was on the continent Yokuda( it was 4 times the size of the septim empire). Eventually the whole continent would be submerged destroying the empire and the left handed elves population (or so we know, there could be some still alive).

If later in ESO quests, that the continent has not been submerged and still exists, that would be breaking lore. But ESO isn't breaking lore, it is creating it.

I personally believe people throw the word 'lore-breaking' around now to try and get attention.

I guess it's our duty to make sure that bananas don't go extinct! #savethebananas #bananasarefriendsnotfood

You are very misinformed! ESO is set at a stage earlier than many single player ESO games, therefore anything added now is only added to the lore (and possibly going extinct or phased out when it comes the time during the single player ESO games).

Unbelievable!

ROFLMAO. You folks who go on about "Lore" do understand that things get changed or lost as decades pass, right? Records get lost/damaged/destroyed. People lie, in order to up their rep and screw up others. Things change.

#edit: Example: Mournhold will be flat in the future, with the ground at the level of Almalexia's Temple.

And what about the pricing. With an ingredient costing 150g from a grocer, and most foods requiring a minimum of 2 even for most basic foods, that means even a practiced cook would spend 300g on an average, basic meal for a family of 4. That's almost 1K per day just to EAT. Compared to prices of other common things this is way WAY out of line. A simple weapon is about 30g. A high value moderately rare collectible is worth 250g. So an average family spends more on a single meal than on their treasured keepsakes.
