Chokeroot

Chokeroot was a type of root vegetable that could be consumed by humans, Artiodacs, and Togrutas. The root was an ingredient in the dish mashed chokeroot, which was a component of the entrée Fried Endorian Tip-Yip. Chokeroot could be found on the Outer Rim planets Batuu and Saleucami, and it was known to be a family standard on some worlds.

The Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs felt that chokeroot was unsuitable for his cooking until he discovered a recipe for mashed chokeroot on Saleucami that he considered stellar. The revelation prompted him to reevaluate his opinions about the root, and he began serving mashed chokeroot and Fried Endorian Tip-Yip in his traveling diner, Tuggs' Grub, while it was stationed on Batuu.
