Rulings
7 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2023-06-16
If an effect refers to a Food, it means any Food artifact, not just a Food artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Lembas to Pippin's Bravery.
- 2023-06-16
You choose a target creature as you cast Pippin's Bravery, but you don't choose whether to sacrifice a Food until the spell resolves.
- 2023-06-16
If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Pippin's Bravery tries to resolve, Pippin's Bravery is removed from the stack. You won't be able to sacrifice a Food to it.
- 2024-11-08
Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.
- 2024-11-08
You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
- 2024-11-08
If an effect refers to a Food, it means any Food artifact, not just a Food artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Tough Cookie (an Artifact Creature — Food Golem) to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability (an ability with "Sacrifice a Food" in its cost).
