Yeah, they all notice she's getting cuter. She doesn't, of course.
It's a cooking manga. Of course you're going to eat it.

She is wearing some bulky clothing, so it's a bit hard to see, but compared to other manga characters, she is a bit on the chubby side. Nothing extreme, though.
- She's supposed to be fat, but she look like any ordinary character. The only indication that she might be chubby is her legs... and only sometimes.
This is the fault of a lot of cooking mangas where someone isekais in and has all of the advanced knowledge, but the author doesn't know cooking well enough to make the character smart, so they make everyone else dumber instead. In some cases, there are reasons for why cooking hasn't developed, but most of the time it's just BS, since anyone who cares as much as the characters do once they taste something new would also care enough to try some different stuff on their own. Humanity has historically been excellent in making inedible things edible, and edible things tasty. It doesn't hurt that humans are omnivores with a surprising amount of resistance to many substances other animals can't eat.
- So this country has bread, which means they mill their flour, various high quality alchohol, which must also mean they know about fermentation, and apparently they make their own sweets... and yet have no idea how to actually cook or mix their ingredients together for basic things like cocktails or making decent soups? The world building in regards to the food seems really wonky.
