The '''Food''', also known as the '''Enemy Bait''', is an obtainable item in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' and ''[[BS The Legend of Zelda]]''.

The Food's primary use is to feed a hungry [[Goriya]] that will not move to let Link through in the [[Level 7: The Demon|seventh dungeon]] in ''The Legend of Zelda''. He simply stands there and grumbles at Link.{{Ref|LoZ|59|Hungry [[Goriya]]}} By feeding the Goriya the Food, it gets out of Link's way, allowing him to continue further into the dungeon.

Link can use the Food to distract enemies. By placing it down on a screen full of enemies, they are all distracted by the Food,{{Ref|name=Quote1}} and immediately forget about Link and go to the Food. Link can then use this opportunity to either run away to the next screen or use it as an easy chance to defeat all the enemies. The choice is up to Link. This is a completely optional use of dealing with enemies, but is quite effective and not a waste because the food can be used until it is given to the hungry goriya.
