So Martin talks about food at length and in great detail often. Casual book readers think this is because Martin just loves food and talking about food because he's a gluttonous fat dude. However, I have a theory that it is because he wants to continually show how prosperous of a land Westeros is. Once the Winds of Winter comes out we're about to see a drastic change. Now that theres been a massive war at the end of fall there isn't going to be any food left. You can already see this start to manifest when we see how terrible the conditions are for Stannis' army outside of Winterfell.
So instead of hearing about massive feasts with turkeys and mutton we are going to hear about people eating bugs and bricks once winter comes. No more feasts when lords arrive at houses, instead it will be lord whoever ate the last of the rotted bread while the men supped on dead grass and the occasional earth worm. It's going to be be a huge contrast to the previous 5 books. People will be dying from starvation, some may turn to cannibalism leading into or acting as a companion to the Skagos storyline.

Not much of a stretch indeed
It's mentioned numerous times how they won't be able to feed the people in kings landing when winter hits
Multiplied by of the damage to the storm lands by the mountain, if I'm not mistaken
This is off the top of my head
So basically far from low key in the books, and the show hasn't really hit that point yet
hers gets better at the end coupled with selmys.I'm halfway through ADWD and I'm finding Dany's storyline boring as hell. I'm seriously contemplating skipping her chapters. I have NO interest in her and her freed slaves

but yes shes rather drawn out

He already told the hbo showrunners how everything will play out. Not sure how general or specific he was. I wonder if he told anyone else.
Maybe he's into food porn and loves to describe stuff.

I need to find that chapter. Reading about Targaryen history is always a good read. I was bored one night and read info about Aegon The Conqueror all the way up to Dany.
