...monty python and other references
References to Wikipedia, Monty Python, Zork and other such sources aren't different from similar references in movies and literature. The less you try to explain it in-character, the better.

Not if the jungles have yet to be discovered.
We simply need to steal a few of those divinely-made chocolate-including foodstuffs, devise a way to reverse-engineer them back into chocolate beans, put them into an inverted timeslip and wait till we get the plant. Then we can plant them in Oleanvir valley, and force Gwylifar to return from inactivity so he can guard the chocolate saplings.
Then we can watch him destroy the Basin in an annihilating rage when the first noob comes around and "harvests" it all to zero.

Hey, wait, who told you the plan? 
One of the running jokes in my realspace RPG group is "Cthulhu's Chocolatiers", a Lovecraftian cult whose intent is to get the world coated in chocolate so when Cthulhu comes back to devour it, it'll be so creamy smooth and tasty that Cthulhu will be pleased and reward them. Their motto is, "Everything's better covered in chocolate!"
So be careful when you go discovering chocolate in Lusternia. Kethuru might have a sweet tooth!

I can magically yank a silver torc from thin air, but I can't make chocolate? No fair.

Eh, that would cause Lusternian cocoa to be a re-annual plant, IE, one that grows a year before it is planted. And if you don't pĺant what you harvested earlier, you cause temporal distortions that might destroy the universe.
I don't think I trust Lusternian herbalists enough to let the fate of the Universe depend on their replanting.
Of course it'd be re-annual chocolate. The kind that gives you toothaches and makes you fat -before- you eat it.
(Which is cool for two reasons, one, You have a great excuse to eat a lot of chocolate so as to not create any dangerous time paradoxons, two, Lommy can pick up the then soon-to-be-introduced dentist trade, which shouldn't cost me any lessons seeing as he's technically there already.)

It's been checked, and the only items with chocolate/coco(excluding coconut)/cocoa in them that exist belong to divine - who obviously can just imagine up a temporary jungle if need be.
You are holding:
a figurine of Viravain, 20 master's paint palettes, 10 deck of Tarot cards, a vial,
a slice of luscious chocolate and strawberry swirl cheesecake, the forest
of Ackleberry, the lost city of Hallifax, the lost city of Guadiguch, a black lacquered
box, a painting of Isune, a painting of Lacostian, and a wickedly curved scythe.

I think chocolate is like one of these:
Just because we don't have access to them anymore doesn't mean we don't recognize them and laugh about them.
