Azureth 687 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 (edited) In Bridle Gossip when Pinkie remarks how strange it is that Zecora eats hay Twilight remarks "Pinkie, you eat hay, I eat hay". However as far as I remember we have never seen anypony from the show eat hay, or have they? Edited June 11, 2014 by Azureth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puddlejumper 1,649 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 (edited) They've had it in the form of sandwiches and such. Hay fries are another example I believe.

Bojo 1,464 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 The Mane-iac is right, here is another exaple: HAYBURGERS! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHo-OyChAoQ I'm sure there are more scenes where ponies are eating hay, but they've probably eaten more apples than hay... at least in the show, yeah. 3 Eeyup... this signature was made by: @Sparkle Speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M'aiq the Liar 5,804 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 Twilight has been shown to ingest copious amounts of hay via hay burgers. http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/vera-yeoman-r5921Muh pleb tier OC .http://mlpforums.com/blog/1663/entry-12477-pony-waifu-wedding-13-maiq-x-fleetfoot/ MLP forum's #1 Fleetfoot fan also married to fleetfoot <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainblow H. Ash 5,091 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 Trixie: Ha, Twilight ingesting her hay in burger form! Trixie is far superior to that: she drinks the hay from a smoothie! Was there ever any doubt Trixie even ate hay better than Twilight?! 1 #bringbackmerriwetherwillaims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I used to be a stranger 7,994 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 The show is rather spotty in terms of what foodstuffs they actually consume. Real ponies are completely herbivore and mostly eat grains and grasses. Apples, carrots and other kinds of sweet dense fruits and vegetables are rare treats which can be unhealthy in large amounts. Likewise with feeding horses sugar cubes. An important thing only lightly referenced is salt--essential to the equine diet, but portrayed (only once) as more of a novelty or perhaps restricted luxury akin to alcohol. In My Little Pony, we see lots of equine-anthropomorphized foods which make it much more appealing to young audiences. Things like feeding ponies candy, baked goods, breads and sugary drinks like punch. (In fact, mention of vegetables are rare compared to dessert foodstuffs.) I still think the best protrayal of food in the show comes from Season 1 Episode 3 Ticket Master where Twilight eats a flower. Such a thing never happens again, despite being the closest thing to an accurate indication of pony diets apart from hearsay by character dialogue, and the frequent display of apples. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was there ever any doubt Trixie even ate hay better than Twilight?! I won't be contributing to this topic in any meaningful way lol, but I just wanted to say that... I kinda want a hay smoothie right now. Maybe it's because I'm dehydrated (not even sure hay smoothies would help much with that). "It uses the faculty of what you call imagination.

The Crimson Cross 7,533 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 We've seen the ponies eat hay before, but usually in the form of ponified human food such as a hayburger: I believe there is such thing as Hay fries too. Now with more added tea leaves! My fantastic signature made by Gone Airbourne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's because I'm dehydrated (not even sure hay smoothies would help much with that). I have never honestly had a smoothie in my entire life, so I wouldn't know man. But Trixie makes that smoothie look delicious, though, so maybe one day. Might hurt my swag a little bit, but deliciousness cares not about things like swag. 1 #bringbackmerriwetherwillaims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egg 18 June 12, 2014 Share June 12, 2014 (edited) Allot of ponies probably prefer hay fries,hay smoothies, etc because its more tasty than ordinary hay Edited June 12, 2014 by Egg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
