In Phantom Hourglass, it is mentioned that young Gorons may eat Wood Hearts to grow big and strong. In The Minish Cap, Biggoron had indicated that he likes to eat steel or iron, and asked Link to give him his Small Shield to "nibble" on, which eventually turned it into the Mirror Shield. Oracle of Ages also had a drink called Goronade, which acts much like an energy drink. In Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages, Gorons also drink lava, either in the form of Lava Juice or Lava Soup. It has been shown in other titles that Gorons also eat other kinds of foods. Gorons tend to be somewhat selective about the quality of the rocks. The diet of Gorons consist almost strictly of rocks mined from nearby quarries. However, if an outsider is able to prove their worth, usually in a test of strength, skill, intelligence, or courage, the Goron tribe will accept them and come to call them one of their brothers. Though the Gorons are a friendly race, they can also be slow to trust outsiders, and may come off as cautious or even aggressive depending on the situation. Gorons are very close and respectful to others of their own kind, and often refer to each other as "brothers". Gorons tend to live in relative isolation but will regularly trade with Hyruleans and other friendly races. Those who become chiefs are both powerful and wise, uniting their people through respect and trust, rather than by force. Groups of Gorons often live in close-knit communities within their home mountains, often led by an elder leader, such as Darunia, the leader of the Death Mountain Gorons in Ocarina of Time. However, as mentioned in Twilight Princess, Gorons can hold their breath for long periods without ever needing to breathe and thus cannot drown. Gorons tend to move slowly, though their ability to roll can make up for this, and one of their apparent weaknesses is deep water as they cannot swim. While Gorons do have many strengths, they are also not without their weaknesses. Gorons possess immense strength which many are proud of, and many groups of Gorons like to hold competitions that test each other's physical strength and even rolling ability, including competitions such as Sumo Wrestlin' and rolling racing, among others. Gorons are born from the earth itself, and refer to other Gorons who were born in the same place as them as their siblings. To date, no female Gorons have been seen at any point in the series. Combined with their round shape, Gorons can also curl themselves into a ball shape and roll like a boulder, which is also their primary attack against enemies. Another common trait are their symbols in the shape of the Goron's Ruby tattooed to the sides of their arms, whether this is natural or not is unknown. They have small eyes and noticeable lips, which conceal unaligned, square teeth. Befitting with that of their habitat, their durable, round bodies greatly resemble that of stones and boulders, and nearly all Gorons have a hide of ridged stones on their backsides. Some also live on islands, such as on Goron Island. They are also adept at living in non-mountainous regions it is not uncommon to see Gorons come down from their mountain homes or even travel to faraway lands, as seen in The Wind Waker, The Minish Cap, Skyward Sword and Breath of the Wild. Gorons typically live in or under mountain ranges of several countries, including mountains such as Death Mountain of Hyrule and Snowhead of Termina, among others. Goron legs are short, especially in comparison to their much longer arms. The largest known Goron in the series is Biggoron, who is roughly about the same height as the peak of Death Mountain. The Gorons are a large, mountain-dwelling race, with sizes ranging from medium, tall, and even gigantic.
