Four varieties of gagh

"I've been looking forward to gagh. I haven't had it for quite a while. Very fresh."
- Jean-Luc Picard (TNG: "Unification I")

Gagh was a Klingon delicacy consisting of unprocessed serpent worms. Although most Klingons preferred it live, it could be served stewed or cold as well. Many Humans tended to find it unappetizing, though both William T. Riker and Jean-Luc Picard claimed to have developed a taste for it, and Julian Bashir occasionally enjoyed it. Allegedly, the actual taste of gagh was revolting and it was eaten solely for the unique sensation of the gagh spasming in one's mouth and stomach in their death throes. (ENT: "Sleeping Dogs"; TNG: "A Matter Of Honor", "Unification I"; DS9: "Melora", "Inquisition")

After CaptainJonathan Archer had been exposed to, and subsequently cured of, the Klingon Augment virus in 2154, he had a strange craving for a plate of live gagh. (ENT: "Divergence")

In 2373, Neelix served gagh aboard the USS Voyager for his special Klingon breakfast buffet. However, none of the crew seemed very enthusiastic about it. He did so again in 2377 when Voyager took aboard Klingons whose ancestors had migrated to the Delta Quadrant. (VOY: "Fair Trade", "Prophecy")

In 2375, a shipment of gagh ordered by Jadzia Dax for the celebration of General Martok's birthday arrived on Deep Space 9. Ezri Dax later rejected the gagh because of her memories of being made sick by eating it. She wanted to have it thrown out into space but was not allowed to due to environmental laws. (DS9: "Prodigal Daughter")

There were at least 51 different types of gagh, each with its distinct taste and texture, including:

  • Bithool gagh, which had feet
  • Filden gagh, which squirmed
  • Meshta gagh, which jumped
  • Torgud gagh, which wiggled
  • Wistan gagh, which was packed in targ blood
