Over the years I have become very well acquainted with all kinds of wines, teas, and other neathy delights. However, I don't have the foggiest idea what I have for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on an ordinary day. Does anyone know what the the staple foods of the neath are?

Rupho Schartenhauer has killed a Master, well: most of it.
Cortez the Killer has killed a Master, definitely.

The wealthier residents of the city can afford to enjoy food imported from the surface at considerable cost. In the Sophia and Soap comics there was one food item called a "Trump and Fotheringay Esteemed Meat Pie" with ingredients including eel, kidney, mutton, cloves imported from the surface and apparently some powdered jade. More common pies are just filled with ratmeat I believe. Cave fish have also been exhibited as a possible item,and dishes of fried kippers are favored at the docks. Rubbery Lumps can be eaten at the carnival and roasted chestnuts can be found at the Labyrinth of Tigers. Lastly, various zeebeasts from angler crabs to sharks can be eaten so perhaps some captains bring them to shore for sale.
So a mix of surface goods, zee bounties and whatever can be grown or hunted within and near the city itself.

^ isn't it hinted on mutton isle and a certain card on the zee, that rubbery lumps aren't actually "rubbery" but some kind of mystery meat made with well-water?

Crumpets. People drop crumpets in horror. People murder others over crumpets. Things like that.

Actually, isn't that kind of what you're literally eating if you decide to eat and/or spice a meal with lacre?
So, even if it's not a staple, concentrated despair might at least be considered a seasonal snack food, like candy canes.
