From "Princess Ida." The chorus is a satire on Handel.
“Big Mexican Dinner” by The Kentucky Headhunters
Wasn’t there one entitled “Green Tomatoes”? - instrumental. By a Detroit group ?
“Kentucky Fried” - movie theme?
“Hot Chocolate” -
“Tea for Two”
“Molasses”?
“Lollipop” (for the old people here) - Chordettes?
“A something and a Baby Ruth”
“Peanut Butter” -
“Sugar, Sugar” - Archies
“Sugartime” - Andrew Sisters?
“Funky Chicken” - dance
The theme for “Chicken of the Sea” tuna
“Timothy” (dinner anyone?)
Two movies with food in their title (well one is actually a skiing term)
“Hot Dog The Movie”
“Hamburger The Movie” Dick Butkus has one of the funniest lines in movie history about Kunte Kinte. The rest of the movie was C but the hamburger joint scene was PRICELESS.
Perhaps...but I still thought of greens when I used to hear it in my sallit days.
It’s funny how it was the first thing that came to my mind!
“Lollipop” was Millie Small.

Eggplant
Michael Franks
From: The Art of Tea
Whenever I explore the land of Yen
I always take one on the chin
And now this lioness has almost made me tame.
I can’t pronounce her name but Eggplant is her game.
The lady sticks to me like white on rice.
She never cooks the same way twice.
Maybe it’s the mushrooms. Maybe the tomatoes.
I can’t reveal her name but Eggplant is her game.
When my baby cooks her Eggplant,
She don’t read no book.
She’s got a Giocanna kinda of dirty look
And my baby cooks her Eggplant,
Bout 19 different ways.
Sometimes I just have it raw with Mayonnaise.
-break-
Maybe its the way she grates her cheese,
Or just the freckles on her knees.
Maybe its the scallions. Maybe she’s Italian.
I can’t reveal her name but Eggplant is her game.
When my baby cooks her Eggplant,
She don’t read no book.
She’s got a Giocanna kinda of dirty look.
And my baby cooks her Eggplant,
Bout 19 different ways.
Sometimes I just have it raw with Mayonnaise.
Dean Martin, That’s Amore.

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie
That’s amore
When the world seems to shine like you’ve had too much wine
That’s amore
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you’ll sing “Vita bella”
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella
When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool
That’s amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet
You’re in love
When you walk in a dream but you know you’re not
Dreaming seniore
Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli
That’s amore
the group “Joy of Cooking” from 1971, whole first LP is great
Nowadays, a castle full of militant feminists would be serving a vegan luncheon!
