Based on the Know Direction podcast, we'll be having some nifty halfling equipment.
We know that halflings go a bit unnoticed as they follow in the footsteps of humans. But they're also highly adaptable, and their equipment will show that in spades.
Examples include:
A shield that doubles as a frying pan when you turn the handle around.
A helmet that, when you take it off and run a stick through the ear holes, doubles as a cooking pot.
A halfling racial weapon that doubles as a spork.
Actually, they said those are sketches Wayne Raynolds gave them. They did not say that they are going to put them in the game, but they said some of those were so cool that they gave the sketches to the PDT to see what they could extract for them.
I don't think you need a specific entry in the equipement section for "a helmet that doubles as a cooking pot", that probably will be just clutter. A paragraph in halfings description saying "lots of halfing use gear that doubles up as common equipment" is enough.
However, a few of those (such as a fork which is a racial weapon) might be cool to have.
They flat out said the halfling racial weapon would double as a fork (or maybe spork; hard to tell on the audio).
But the other two are in the artwork, and hopefully also in the halfling section.
That would just he awesome. I love having equipment unique to races, so everything isn't so bland and you can actually see cultural differences in the rules.

I'm not sure you should be cooking and eating with stuff that you just used do kill some orcs.
Dark Sun halflings will actually cook the orcs.

Why not? Disease as explained by the Germ Theory doesn't really exist in the Pathfinder world - and when it does it's an easy fix (a few saves or magic). However, we do know that alternate theories long thought false in the real world are actually true in Pathfinder: Four Hunors, Faith Healing, Phrenology, actual magic. And beyond that, disease is almost always spread by either magic, drugs, demons, or the attack of a specific creature.
So there's not really anything bad about using your weapons as eating utensils. It's not like rotting meat or anything really exists, or even the possibility of "catching" something by doing so.
It's not like your character can catch hepatitis in Pathfinder, or even a common cold.
You'll be fine. :)

Yeah but is it tasty?
