Weekend Discussion Thread: Food

Alert reader Jay suggests:

Food. The Brains brought up food in many, many episodes. What is your favorite? For me it has to be Hamdingers. Not only were they Joel’s exit device, but they sound darn tasty! Too bad they aren’t around anymore.

I kinda like The Mads’ breakfast bazooka.

You?

    I suppose I could make some potent potables for my next party, and serve up some Killer Shrews. It would give me a chance to use up all those extra M&Ms, Peeps, Capn Crunch (with Crunchberries), Sweetarts, Mr. Pibb, etc that I had lying around the kitchen.

    Of course I would serve a nice stew to go with the drinks, made of corn, onions, peppers….

    Satan’s walnut ranch, where killer grandma serves you walnut toast, walnut pie, walnut loaf, walnut hash, and peanuts (I hope that is what she said) for your booze.

    Let’s not forget Cowboy Mike’s Red Hot Ricochet BBQ Sause, because it’s BOOOOOLLLLLDDD! It’s also one of the few times Mike’s tried to trick the Mads. Maybe the SOL also used it to eat that blue whatever it was in “The Deadly Mantis”.

    There’s also the two restaurants the Mads opened, “Clay & Lar’s Flesh Barn” and the (so far as I know) unnamed “Home of the Big G Burger” place as Gizmonic Institute.

    I wonder if anyone approached Joel for permission to open up a real version of either one of these places.

    Mike’s clam soup in Samson Vs. the Vampire Women. One of the surprisingly rare Muppet Show moments they had.

    Though considering it’s his combined birthday/deathday, I’m kind of disappointed you didn’t use the Shakespeare riff topic I sent in a while back.

    You mean by lunch time at some point in 2017?

    As for me, may I please have a jar of honey from Dr. Manfred (you’ve heard of his Earth Band) in The Deadly Bees to put on my toast? Of course, if the toaster catches fire and burns the house down, you can be sure Vicky was here.

    The flavor of bacon in a dip. I’m a vegetarian, but whenever I hear Crow sing that I find myself wanting the flavor of bacon in a dip.

    Interestingly, I was very recently thinking about just how MANY food references there are in PUMA MAN. They must have done the bulk of their writing for that episode before lunch, or something, because the food references EASILY dominate all of the other types of riffs in that episode.

    #s 4 and 21: That pretty much covers it — waffles and coffee!

    POTATOES ARE WHAT WE EAT!

    Also, I’ve mentioned before that I’ve tried putting together egg creams before, as mentioned in the movie Squirm. They’re nice. Kind of a sparkling chocolate milk, which adds a little bite.

    For those on a liquid diet watching Devil Fish try Budweisers as a prequel to dinner. But
    make sure you eat the fish and not the fish you.

    Alert Reader Jay’s suggestion: The Brains brought up food in many, many episodes. Makes me think of every time someone leaned over a railing, or a container, etc. someone always made a retching noise as if the person was “bringing up food”. Gross, but very funny. Not quite food-related, but….

    Almost forgot. 1) try some butter flavored popcorn and yummy (if addictive) soup
    while watching The Wild World of Batwoman.
    2)No. 1 above—be sure to check the expiration date on canned wassail.

    What unfortunate wording on Alert Reader Jay’s part! Be careful what you say and how you say it because you might have to eat your words later. Ha!

  41. I’ve read that hamdingers were actually pretty nasty, but hey different folks, different strokes….

    That said, the ending credits for “Final Justice” which has Servo and Crow listing off a bunch of fattening foods to the tune of the music.

    Servo: “Pork chops, cream puffs, candy bars…”
    Crow: “Pizzas, Cheetos, Mall-o-Mars!”
    Both: “HE WON’T STOP ‘TIL HE EATS IT ALL….”

    Johnny Longbone’s stew recipe gets a lot of use in the Goshzilla household. I can’t seem to recite a list without adding “*sigh* onions…” On the middle of it.

    “Thong? Fish is ready!” Yum…fresh out of the water grilled fish! Hopefully Ator took the nuclear device far enough away before detonation, so as not to contaminate the ecosystem he (and others) live in.
