    She would probably know all about Talaxian food and how it tastes since I’m sure The Borg assimilated plenty of Talaxians. In fact, every Borg knows how trillions upon trillions of foods taste. Foods that some species can eat but would kill others.

      And yet Seven still chooses nutritional supplement 13 alpha. Shows how good Talaxian spices truly are.

        I’m not sure. At some point the nutritional supplement came into the picture. I can’t imagine it’s the best-tasting thing in the galaxy though.

          From what I remember, they get their nutrition from the various tubes and implants, but Seven had to eat the nutritional supplements because she’d been disconnected from the Borg and had most of her implants removed, and her digestive system wasn’t capable of eating proper food yet.

            I think the doctor described it as almost like baby food. (I could be wrong as been a while since I have seen that episode.)

          oh, I kind of pictured it like a matrix thing or something. You dock in the pod and the tubes inject you with nutrients.
