With the addition of Rhudel with its pomegranates and sour milk and hopes of additional eastern biomes and factions, I began thinking of additional fruit trees which might exist in those regions. In our world, fig trees can be found throughout North Africa, the Middle East, and parts of Western Asia. In ancient days, these trees were highly valued and seen as symbols of prosperity.

Regardless of what eastern region comes next, I thought that fig trees would be a great feature for Near-Harad Fertile, Umbar, Rhudel (and further east), and perhaps Khand. From the figs one could brew a fig liqeur simiilar to the fig arak from Morocco. Also, one could make fig cakes using perhaps the vanilla minecraft cake recipe but replace the sugar with figs. These cakes could be small like marchpane and combined for a large placable cake or it could begin as large and placable to start with. I am sure that these trees would be the pride of the Golden Khanate and a testament their great prosperity.
