Bartered Cow
Creature — Ox
When this creature dies and when you discard this card, create a Food token. (It's an artifact with ",
, 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.

Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.
(wotc • 2024-11-08)
You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.

Bartered Cow's ability is a triggered ability, not an activated ability. It doesn't allow you to discard it or sacrifice it whenever you want; rather, you need some other way of discarding it or causing it to die.
