Something to remember, per [[Sarapis]]' note on [http://forums.achaea.com/discussion/comment/291082/#Comment_291082/a forum post]: "I also want to point out that this isn't black and white, even though approvals are by necessity black and white. There's a spectrum, and it's an immensely subtle and wide spectrum. There are no bright, clear, simple lines to be drawn and so it's completely inevitable, especially with something where we can't spend much time on it, that there'll be inconsistencies, both real and perceived. We work to minimise those of course but we'll never be able to get rid of them. It's just too broad a subject matter."

===Items Not Allowed===
Per HELP COOKING DESIGN: ''The Crafting Council reserves the right to determine whether foods are suitable for Achaea's environment. Certain anachronistic foods and terms will not be allowed. Following is a list of some such foods; we will attempt to keep it up to date, but please be aware that it is not exhaustive.''
These items include (but are not limited to):
*pizza
*tacos
*hot dogs
*pancakes
*waffles
*fondue
*jellybeans
*gummianything(bear, worm, etc).
*cotton candy/candy floss
While it may be tempting to out-wit the Divine who oversee crafting by using clever descriptions for items not allowed, all too often it's a waste of both their time and yours. A better option is to create something that is allowed with similar ingredients. Some alternatives are listed below.

==== Spices and Seasonings and Condiments, Oh My!====
==== Sugar and Spice Are Not Always Nice ====
Types of spices, seasonings, and condiments to enhance the flavour of your recipes. In 713 Amarisse explained that mustard is fine. If you're unsure about similar condiments, like ketchup, ask on a letter and hand it to her in the Crafter's Union in Delos or describe the condiment, for example: tomato paste with spices.

Sweet treats can be a fun addition to Achaean life. In 762, however, Nicola announced that cotton candy/candy floss was added the banned list. See the notes below for more information regarding alternatives.

|When in doubt, research the origin of the real world name. Shiitake mushrooms get there name from two Japanese words. If you want to avoid having your recipe returned by the Crafter's Union then you might refer to them as sawtooth oak mushrooms, oakwood mushrooms, black mushrooms, or golden oak mushrooms, which are all perfectly legitimate alternatives.
