Wtf in what kind of place do you live where any kind of bread or even only an ingredient of bread is growing on trees?!Does that mean we will need a texture for Maggoty Bread growing on plants and trees?
In Mordor, where else do the orcs get their maggoty bread supplies from?Wtf in what kind of place do you live where any kind of bread or even only an ingredient of bread is growing on trees?!

We're making concepts for FA stuff already, Mordor is almost ready for revamping
The Two Towers – Journey to the Cross-road said:Across the tumbled lands between, the mountains of the Ephel Dúath frowned at them, black and shapeless below where night lay thick and did not pass away, above with jagged tops and edges outlined hard and menacing against the fiery glow. Away to their right a great shoulder of the mountains stood out, dark and black amid the shadows, thrusting westward.
The Two Towers – The stairs of Cirith Ungol said:They left the ring of trees and crept along the road towards the mountains. This road, too, ran straight for a while, but soon it began to bend away southwards, until it came right under the great shoulder of rock that they had seen from the distance. Black and forbidding it loomed above them, darker than the dark sky behind. Crawling under its shadow the road went on, and rounding it sprang east again and began to climb steeply. … and then he (Frodo) saw it … the city of the Ringwraiths. … A long-tilted valley, a deep gulf of shadow, ran back far into the mountains. Upon the further side, some way within the valley's arms, high on a rocky seat upon the black knees of the Ephel Dúath, stood the walls and tower of Minas Morgul. All was dark about it, earth and sky, but it was lit with light. ...
The Return of The King – The Land of Shadow said:The eastern faces of the Ephel Dúath were sheer, falling in cliff and precipice to the black trough that lay between them and the inner ridge. A short way beyond the way-meeting after another steep incline, a flying bridge of stone leapt over the chasm and bore the road across into the tumbled slopes and glens of the Morgai. … Behind them, now high above on the mountain-side, loomed the Tower of Cirith Ungol, its stones glowing dully. … They scrambled on to the low parapet of the bridge. Fortunately there was no longer any dreadful drop into the gulf, for the slopes of the Morgai had already risen almost to the level of the road; but it was too dark for them to guess the depth of the fall.
The Return of The King – The Land of Shadow said:They went on up the ravine, until it ended in a sharp slope of screes and sliding stones. The last living things gave up their struggle; the tops of the Morgai were grassless, bare, jagged, barren as a slate.
After much wandering and search they found a way that they could climb, and with a last hundred feet of clawing scramble they were up. They came to a cleft between two dark crags, and passing through found themselves on the very edge of the last fence of Mordor. Below them, at the bottom of a fall of some fifteen hundred feet, lay the inner plain stretching away …
Sam went on. '… There is no way down that I can see...'
…
They soon found it impossible to make their way along the crest of the Morgai, or anywhere along its higher levels, pathless as they were and scored with deep ghylls. In the end they were forced to go back down the ravine that they had climbed and seek for a way along the valley.
The Return of The King – The Land of Shadow said:The trough between the mountains and the Morgai had steadily dwindled as it climbed upwards, and the inner ridge was now no more than a shelf in the steep faces of the Ephel Dúath; but to the east it fell as sheerly as ever down into Gorgoroth. Ahead the water-course came to an end in broken steps of rock; for out from the main range there sprang a high barren spur, thrusting eastward like a wall.
The Return of The King – The Land of Shadow said:A few miles north, high up in the angle where the western spur branched away from the main range, stood the old castle of Durthang, now one of the many orc-holds that clustered about the dale of Udûn. A road visible in the growing light, came winding down from it, until only a mile or two from where the hobbits lay it turned east and ran along a shelf cut in the side of the spur, and so went down into the plain, and on to the Isenmouthe.
'We have come to a dead end, Sam' said Frodo. 'If we go on, we shall only come up to that orc-tower, but the only road to take is that road that comes down from it – unless we go back. We can't climb up westward, or climb down eastward.'
The Return of The King – Mount Doom said:The land all about was dreary, flat and drab-hued.
As the light grew a little he saw to his surprise that what from a distance had seemed wide and featureless flats were in fact all broken and tumbled. Indeed the whole surface of the plains of Gorgoroth was pocked with great holes, as if, while it was still a waste of soft mud, it had been smitten with a shower of bolts and huge slingstones. The largest of these holes were rimmed with ridges of broken rock, and broad fissures ran out from them in all directions. It was a land in which it would be possible to creep from hiding to hiding, …
Yet still before it there stretched a wide region of fuming, barren, ash-ridden land. …
But I would not use Sindarin names for them. The names from the books are Sindarin as they are all for places well known in Gondor where places are commonly named in Sinarin. But I don't think that other places in Mordor were known in Gondor. The men of Gondor never occupied the realm of Mordor. Instead they guarded the borders during the first centuriest of the Third Age to prevent Sauron from returning. For this purposte they built the Towers of the Teeth at the Black Gate and also the fortress of Durthang and the Tower of Cirith Ungol.The Return of The King – The Land of Shadow said:Here in the northward regions (Plains of Gorgoroth) were the mines and forges, and the musterings of long-planned war; ...
Neither he nor Frodo knew anything of the great slave-worked fields away south in this wide realm, beyond the fumes of the Mountain by the dark sad waters of Lake Núrnen
The Two Towers - The Uruk-hai said:Uglúk au bagronk sha pushdug Saruman-glob búbhosh skai.
But we have always called the places as they were called in the books, like all the places in the Shire were called differently by Hobbits. And the Elves didn't call Rivendell Rivendell, but Imladris.Ofc we will have a lot of non-canonical fortresses and towns in Mordorn. Its a large and realm with strict military order I would guess. With everything needed, mines, forges, storages and vast fields to grow supplies.

Sauron invented the Black Speed for common use under his reign, but he failed with that project. Orcs ususally used clan languages or a cruel form of Westron to comunicate. Only the captains of Mordor frequently used the Black Speech. Thus places in Mordor should either have names in the Black Speech or probably more likely names in Westron with strong influences from the Black Speech.
For example the Orcs of Mordor say Lugbúrz instead of Barad-dûr.
An example of black speech in the debased form used by Orcs is this:
Not to many words are known in Black Speech, so I think it will be quite hard to use it for names
