Rulings
- : As Tough Cookie's second ability resolves, the target permanent keeps any other types and subtypes it had before it became an artifact creature.
- : Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards.
- : Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.
- : You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
