It was no secret that Team Seven ate at Ichiraku Ramen at least three times a week while in the village on break from missions. It was hard not to know when a blond clad in orange could broadcast it across the village with only his voice, incessantly talking about which flavor of ramen he was going to get today, variety was the spice of life after all (Sakura would be sure to hit Naruto for saying that since seventy percent of what he ate was ramen. The other thirty percent was a mix of field rations and random healthy foods that Sakura threw at him).
It was also fairly common knowledge that Naruto was not completely unaffected by eating ramen (with various flavors!) all the time. While he could flatulate on command (the time when he knocked Kiba and Akamaru out of a tree comes to mind), he also cannot control it at times (Kiba was the poor unfortunate soul who took that full force). Generally thought, he was able to keep it under wraps.
Kakashi trained himself from a very young age to do two things: eat quickly and eat anything. The former was to avoid anyone from seeing his face because he overheard his late mother say he was going to be quite the lady killer when he was older. He started wearing a mask on his lower face as soon as he could find one in his size. He was three at the time.
The unfortunate part of eating quickly was that he would often end up with dyspepsia. It took a couple years to master the quick eating art, and a few more years to figure out he didn't want girls staring at him more than they already did, so he kept the mask that became his signature look.
The latter of the two things is because Hatake Sakumo could not cook anything but continuously tried anyways. Since he was the only family Kakashi had left, he stomached it for the remainder of his father's life. The worst think his father made was only surpassed by the Curry of Life Naruto brought back after he took a mission with Gai's team.
One of Sakura's best kept secrets is why she eats what she does. When she was younger she had often gotten sick from eating just anything. It wasn't that she was allergic, but it was the combination of the foods that didn't sit well with her. Her mother helped figure out what foods her body handled well and steered Sakura to those foods when shopping together. When some of her academy friends asked her about some of the foods that she had in her bento, she told them that she was on a diet. They, however, assumed she meant a weight loss diet instead of one to prevent her from getting sick.
In hindsight, she probably should have clarified it, but before she knew it, every girl who fawned over Sasuke was on a diet, stating they were going to be the thinnest. Only a handful of people know of her predicament, so she continues to avoid certain foods while eating healthy and dodging curious questions.
