What are food in general dreams about?

Now, i would like to know what the meaning was behind it.

Basically, it was a world where like, there was a dark/underworld version of everything. I ended up in a town called Lou, stayed the night in a hotel, and awoke in its underworld counterpart, Lao. And the way i was able to tell, was that there was whispering (in gibberish, yet i was still able to understand), almost incessant, that kept inviting me to enter homes, and eat food there, in an attempt to keep me there. I didn't, and the town unleashed a few animals, one i can remember was a jet black jaguar that kept chasing me, and all the whispering turned into screaming as i ran for safety whilst being chased. I eventually saw what i think was a white or just normal elephant and i ran to it, touched its trunk, and as soon as i did i woke up, laying on my back with my arms at my sides.

Idk why but I had a vision where I was in class and all of a sudden some teacher came in and said that the school was out of food and someone in the class had to be slaughtered to make some more. Then I was chosen. After being slaughtered I saw people eating lumps of meat - even my friends were eating me. This wasn't exactly a dream neither - I was just watching youtube when I suddenly had this vision. I can't stop thinking about it - what could it mean?

I have a co-worker who I get along with extremely well. He is handsome, funny, kind and smart. During our shifts together, we text non-stop when we’re not able to talk, we text outside of work and have great conversations. I’ve never told him how I felt, but I like him.. a lot. Anyways, I had this dream a couple weeks ago. It was him and I, feeding each other food and drinking wine. We were cuddled up on the couch and he gave me a kiss on the forehead, we looked at each other and our eyes met. It felt like the kind of love you see in movies. Nothing else mattered but us at that point in time. The dream jumped to us laying in bed, looking out the window at the sunset with him rubbing my arm and my head burrowed in his chest. But this time when I went to look up at him, I woke up. I immediately realized it was a dream and my heart broke. I haven’t been able to look at him the same because I don’t think he likes me back. My heart aches because I realized if he told me he liked me and wanted to be in a relationship with me, I don’t think I could ever be unhappy again. He makes my stomach flutter and my hands shake. I wish I had the courage to tell him how I feel.

It was as if I had seen the real world, not the one that we are in but, a dystopian place where people who consciously dream are locked away for fear of finding the real world. I escaped from the prison to eat my favourite food, chicken schnitzel, due to the fact that in the prison you barely got to eat and a lady (That I knew was guarding the real world trying to catch dreamers) spoke to me and asked me if I was ok, I stared blankly at her, she replied with "Oh good I almost thought you were conscious" with a sinister smile. I heard speak of someone once I had left the restaurant talk about words that would unlock the gates to the prison and let the conscious dreamers be free, I found other dreamers, fell in love and walked amongst the rooftops of cities and through streets for what felt like days. I found myself reaching a pinnacle of a grand tower, that stood above the city and the code words that would set the dreamers free, I returned to the prison, near the restaurant that I had broken into, the same lady spoke to me she was angry with what I had done, that I would let people know of the real world and with the words of power, I let out all the people into the real world and woke up.

Did anyone experienced eating something they never seen in irl?
and the weird part is I felt the bite and taste of it. It's really and oddly nice tasty thing
What's more weirder is I spent only an hour sleeping just afternoon nap
But in the dream im there for 2 fucking days and I only remember the food part
