From a purely practical point of view, food is something it's very easy to hunger-strike over.

I'm willing to bet there have been a number of hunger strikes over a lack of kosher of halal foods. It wouldn't surprise me if there have been a few prisoners who have refused to eat animal products behind bars, even when the vegetarian products were not nutritionally sufficient.

I would be highly surprised if there were any sustained hunger strikes over lack of gourmet food.
