Culinary arts

Culinary arts is the study of food preparation for those who aspire to be cooks or chefs. In mainstream Smurfs media, Greedy in the cartoon show as well as Chef and Baker in the comic books were either born with this particular skill or somehow acquired it as they grew into adult Smurfs.

In the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series, the skill of culinary arts is passed down through the generations in the families of Greedy, Culinary, Biscotti, Gelato, and Vino as these five Smurfs spent their childhood working alongside their parents in the kitchen helping to prepare the daily meal for the other Smurfs. Empath eventually acquired the skill during his visits to the Smurf Village while he was living in Psychelia, and at the time of "Papa Smurf & Mama Smurfette", Greedy was teaching Smurfette this skill because she wanted to please the Smurf that she someday hoped to marry.
