Except for being a Food artifact, having the listed activated ability, and losing all other card types and subtypes, the token copies only what was printed on the original creature (unless that creature is copying something else; see below). It doesn't copy whether that creature was tapped or untapped, whether it had any counters on it or Auras or Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that had changed its power, toughness, types, color, or so on.

6/16/2023·wotc

If the copied creature is copying something else, then the token enters the battlefield as whatever that creature copied, with the exceptions noted above.

6/16/2023·wotc

Since the token is a Food artifact and not a creature, it can't attack or block unless it becomes a creature somehow.
