Actually,it was originally in one of the SW visual dictionaries. I found a reference to it here.
If that info is right, it was mentioned a year before SWG was released, although there certainly could've been some cross-pollenization between SWG development and some of the Star Wars writers.
IIRC, it was described as a concoction of Dexter Jettster (the 4-armed chef from Ep2).
That being said, I'm going to make note of that page (and this one for food) for future reference of new food/drink items to ask for.
It's also got a lot of little tidbits about most of our favorite recipes: Vas Brandy, Accaragm, Bivoli (an Imperial specialty), Vercupti (apparently a favorite of Obi-wan's at Dexter's diner), etc.

Nice find Sciguy! I know where the creator/author got his inspiration though. It cannot be a coincidence... I wonder if this author worked for the SWG dev team, or perhaps they used his work for the game. This would be interesting to look up, but since I assume anything in that book and this game is now canon? I have been looking through other sources, so cool. I hope all of them are in the game one day!

Well, I think I found the origin of the name Aludium pu36, a pre chef revamp drink component...It must be from the Bugs Bunny cartoon with Marvin the Martian...his Illudium q36 explosive space modulator.... Hmmm aludium pu36, illudium q36, I don't think this is a coincidence. Well, someone in the SWG dev team likes Bugs Bunny!

Those links now don't work for some reason. Here are the new links that work (for now)
Origin of Foods: http://theforce.net/swenc/categories.asp?category=4
Origin of Drinks: http://theforce.net/swenc/categories.asp?category=5
Also, are there any rumors on what is going to happen to the chef profession in a few months?
