3Creature — Ox
Text
When this creature dies and when you discard this card, create a Food token. (It's an artifact with "{2}, {T}, Sacrifice this token: You gain 3 life.")

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.
10/04/2019Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards.
11/08/2024Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.
11/08/2024You 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.
