When this creature dies and when you discard this card, create a Food token. (It's an artifact with "2 generic mana, tap, Sacrifice this token: You gain 3 life.")
At the market, no one heeded Hilda's frantic mooing. The fae curse was turning out even worse than she had feared.

Where it came from
Bartered Cow was originally printed as a common card in the 2019 Magic: The Gathering expansion Throne of Eldraine. The set drew heavily from European folklore and Arthurian legend, aiming for a whimsical yet slightly dark fairytale aesthetic. As part of a design shift toward food-based mechanics within that set, the card was created to provide early-game resource filtering, allowing players to discard cards in exchange for life.
The card was illustrated by Johannes Voss, a long-time contributor to the game known for his expressive, painterly style. His design for the Bartered Cow leans into the set's humorous take on classic tropes, depicting the creature with a slightly surreal, storybook quality that fits the overall tone of Eldraine. It later appeared on The List, a curated collection of cards re-released in subsequent booster packs to keep older or thematic cards available for newer players.
