I'm not sure about the food but Brahmins are like hige priests and other high religious figures they are the highest in the caste second is Kshatriyas the warriors and millitary leaders they are second. Third is the Vaisyas or skilled traders, artisans, merchants, and minor officals. forth are the Sudras unskilled workers who preform hard labor. Last is the Pariah who are out casts and are not even considered part of the caste system. As for food the higher in the caste the more elaorate the dish as for the poor food will mostly be broths soups and stews. hope this helps.

Brahmins (the priest cast) are vegetarian. Kshatriyas (the warrior cast) eat red meat as well as vegetables. Lower casts eat white meat and vegetables. Don't know about the Vaishyas and Shudras that you mention.
