Hi, I'm curious as to what kinds of foods artists tend to eat. While I know everyone's different and so on, I'd like to know what are some "common" foods artists and artsy people eat on a regular basis (besides coffee =) ). So, what do they eat?

I don't think there's a way to characterize foods as "ARTSY' or not. Artists come in too many shapes, sizes, ethnic groups and income levels to make a characterization like this. An artist can eat anything anyone else eats--or might be poor, but that isn't necessarily going to mean they only eat Ramen noodles either. Artists eat whatever they like to eat--or what they can afford, or what's available in the country or location they live in, just like everyone else.

well I am an artist, went to art school and i and a lot of my artist friends are vegetarian. we eat a lot of ethnic food like thai, japonese, home cooked of course. Artists are often fussy about food and cook a lot or live off coffee and ciggerettes.

Hummus. That sounds like artist food, lol.
I think you sometimes see the starving artist type, they eat cheap foods, lots of ramen.
Then you have the artists that are into unique things who eat a lot of ethnic foods like Ethiopian food or something.
