Songs about FOOD

Hello everyone!!
I have an odd question for you all. I have been asked to compile a list of songs that are about FOOD and or mention FOOD within the text of the song. I figured I would ask all of you musical theater geniuses out there for a little help.

Can anyone lend a helping hand??

Thanks,
Waylon :)

Um...where is the food in Defying Gravity? Oh, and do you mean the actual word "food" appears, or any type of food?

Don't listen to a word AveQ says. It makes life so much simpler. Updated On: 8/3/04 at 03:31 PM

A group where I live does a dinner show every year as a fundraiser and this year's theme is "Bon Appetit". So they would like songs that refrence food/drink in some way.
