Love that song. “Green Onions” by Booker T. and the MG’s.

Quite a few food songs came out at the time.

• Mashed Potatoes--Nat Kendrick & the Swans (1960)

• Last Date--Floyd Cramer (1960)

• Peanut Butter--The Marathons (1961)

• Mashed Potato Time--Dee Dee Sharp (1962)

• Gravy--Dee Dee Sharp (1962)

• Sloppy Joe--Jo Ann Campbell (1962)

• Hot Pastrami--The Dartells (1963)

That lineup makes me hungry. Always liked “Sugar Shack” by Jimmy Gilmer and the Fireballs (1963). First time I heard it was on a burger joint jukebox during a family trip near Grand Coulee Dam - back when Burma Shave signs were still in use. Youth is wasted on the young.
