Folkloric tales are stories about an object that supplies a never ending amount of food which have been popular throughout time and traced back to ancient Greek mythology. The strong appeal comes from the hero's acquisition of things that bring him infinite security: inexhaustible food, limitless wealth and physical power over adversaries. The hero always triumphs in the end. These tales of wish fulfillment can be found around the world.
