Lalaren blooms were a foodstuff from Carosi Eight, located in the Outer Rim Territories.[1] Around 233 BBY,[3] on[2] the planet[4] Tenoo, Latero chef Hap planned to make his friend and fellow Latero Geeli's favorite stew and recognized lalaren blooms from its recipe's list of ingredients.[2] In 90 BBY,[5] during a celebration on the planet Serenno hosted by Gora, the Count of Serenno, the humans Jedi Initiate Dooku and Gora's daughter, Jenza, ate a lalaren bloom that Dooku considered "succulent."[1]

Dooku later recounted the incident in a holo-letter to Jenza.[1] Around 23 BBY,[6] Dooku displayed a holographic data disk that detailed the events around meeting his sister, including their consumption of lalaren blooms, to his recently-recruited Sith assassin, Asajj Ventress. The pair listened to the recording, after which Dooku gave Ventress several more disks for her investigation into Jenza's location.[1]

The second season of Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures spans the dedication of the Starlight Beacon (which appears in the season one finale "The Prince and the Pirate") and the mission to Vrant Tarnum (which appears in "Yoda Rescue"), both of which are dated to 232 BBY by Star Wars: Timelines. The Season Two episodes "The Great Gomgourd Quest" and "The Missing Life Day Feast" take place one year after the Season One episodes "The Harvest Feast" and "Life Day," placing those episodes in 233 BBY. Season One begins around the same year, meaning that the first half of Young Jedi Adventures Season One, which includes "Bad Eggs," takes place around 233 BBY.
