Zoochberry/Legends
Zoochberries were a berry used in a variety of dishes.
History
A tasty ingredient…
- "Congratulations Chewie, that was about the best zoochberry pie I've ever had."
- ―Luke Skywalker, to Chewbacca
During the Trioculus affair[1] zoochberry cream was served alongside Whaladon meat in a meeting of the Empire's Central Committee of Grand Moffs on the planet Kessel. After becoming frustrated during the meeting, the newly declared Galactic Emperor Trioculus knocked over a serving flask of zoochberry cream.[1] Some time afterward, the Human Luke Skywalker visited his friend Han Solo at the latter's new sky house on the planet Bespin, where Solo's Wookiee companion Chewbacca used his newfound cooking skills to prepare zoochberry pie. Skywalker subsequently stated that it was the best zoochberry pie he had ever tasted.[4]
…for all purposes
- "Simple as zoochberry pie."
- ―Lando Calrissian
While the Trioculus affair continued, Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina on the planet Tatooine served zoochberry juice. There, the Barabel Tibor suggested that the Hutt Zorba Desilijic Tiure consume a glass of the juice while calming down. Later, Solo hosted a housewarming party at his sky house where he ensured that his guest's zoochberry juice glasses were full in his capacity as host, as there was a significant quantity available.[3] When Solo and his romantic partner, Leia Organa, traveled to Hologram Fun World to be married, they met their friend Lando Calrissian there, who poured glasses of zoochberry juice for each of them. When the couple realized that they needed their birth certificates, which were unavailable, Calrissian expressed through an idiom that getting new copies at the Document Bureau would be as simple as zoochberry pie.[5]
Later, Organa was captured by Zorba and the Imperial Moffs to be forcibly married to Trioculus. While launching a rescue attempt on the Moffship, Solo quipped that finding Organa could turn out like looking for a micro-chip in a field of zoochberries.[5] Zorba later traveled to Scardia Station, home of the Prophets of the Dark Side, who hosted a large banquet for the Hutt's arrival, which included zoochberry dumplings. Zorba consumed them hastily, spilling some of the dumplings on the robe of High Prophet Jedgar.[2]
