The food that is consumed in Hindu worship is called prasad. Basically, that just means something that it offered to the deity first and then consumed. It is sort of similar to saying 'grace' over a meal in the Christian tradition, but treated a bit more seriously in some cases.
Some Hindus, most notably members of ISKCON (often called the 'Hare Krishnas') will only eat food which has been offered to God. Many of those devotees will not even taste the food while they are cooking it, as they consider the entire thing to belong to God and consuming even the smallest bit of it would be selfish and stealing. Other Hindus are often a bit more lenient in this.
ISKCON was often referred to as the 'kitchen religion' when they first came on the scene in America, since they freely shared their prasad with anyone who came to their services. And despite the fact that they are strict lacto-vegetarians and refuse to even taste the food while it is being cooked, the food coming out of their temples is widely praised as being quite tasty.
In many temples, simple mixtures of nuts and sweets are offered to God by the worshipers or priests, usually by placing the offering in front of the idol of the deity and leaving it there for a few moments. During that time, the deity is believed to 'consume' what he wishes of the offering and the remainder is infused with his being and power. This remaining portion is then distributed to the worshipers to be consumed individually.
there are foots such as ghee which is a butter made from buffalo or cow milk and dry fruits and nuts and pistacios which have been blessed by god.
Aksharadham is not the biggest hindu temple because the followers of their deity are not hindus. The biggest hindu temple is probably the Brihadeeshwara Temple in Thanjavvur, Tamilnadu.
