The Rin have 'interesting' taste in food. They normally refuse to eat things that crawl on the ground or animals they see as filthy. The diet also changes depending on class and wealth. Generally the upper and wealthy classes get access to the best food.

food and a basic diet:

The lower class Rin eats a meal of mainly a small loaf bread for breakfast. Supplemented by many types of cheeses and if lucky a pastry or honey.

For lunch they eat a large amount of bread and meat, the meat is generally beef or pork. They also can have a pasta or cream.

Supper is the most important meal for Rin it is eaten with family unlike the others. And is generally described as a feast.

Food accessed by the Wealthy and Nobles:

Cakes, Expensive meats, Fine wine, and many forms of pastries and deserts.

The Nobles also have access to the food of the client species and food from far off worlds. The most common would be Char Wine and Brunto Cake bread.

Soldiers diet:

The Life of a soldier demands a great diet thus the state leave the best for the legions. Each soldier receives a free grain ration supplemented by many forms of meat, fruits, and veggies. They also receive energy drinks and at times  food supplements.

Dinner customs:

To the low class slave to the senator and even the soldier have a set of dinner time customs. You will always eat dinner with family or friends no matter what. (This has lead to the rise of army feasting halls.) Breakfast is a private meal always eaten alone and lunch... lunch is fair game.

A male rin must always offer and seat the females before sitting. And must always must family titles and names when discussing at the table.

Anything related to Xenos is not to be said at the table

When an outsider is not present at the table the Rin may use their inner names.

If a hungry traveler is in need of a meal a rin must invite him to dinner and a bed.
