So the spell Create Food and Water creates enough grub to feed 3 humans or a horse per level.
Just wondering - what if a creature that is larger than M casts this spell? Does a Giant cleric create enough food to feed 3 giants per level?

The spell says 3 humans.
I would allow a custom spell (house rule) allowing a naturally Large creature to create food for 3 Large creatures (or one Huge creature) as long as it wasn't abused. For a level 3 spell it doesn't really do very much.

Magic does not scale per size. If a pixie and a giant cast that spell at the same level, they will get the same amount of food.
To tell the truth, there are many spells that penalize Large or larger creatures.
Phase Door (big creatures couldn't pass through; and consider that this spell would be awesome for hidden Dragon lairs, but poor Dragons are too big for it), Gate (again, creatures too big are left out), and some others.
It would be a good thing, indeed, if an official rule adapted these spells to the size of the caster (real size, if we want to be fair; I mean, without size changes granted by magic).
Damn short-lasting edit...
Anyway, I'll add to the above that the polymorph subschool spells have weird behavior in regard to size.
Take a Human who casts Alter Self to turn into another Human. He gets a +2 size bonus to Strenght. Odd, but I can overlook that. What leaves me truly doubtful is a Colossal Great Wyrm Red Dragon that casts Alter Self and gets the +2 size bonus to Strenght. I think size bonuses/penalties to ability scores and natural armor should be based on the original size of the caster, not just arbitrary for each given spell.
If you cast reduce person on a giant just before they ate, then gave them regular person-size food, would they stay 'fed' when the spell wore off?
