Songs About Food – A Delicious Menu of Music – Don’t Look if You’re on a Diet!

Welcome to The FunHouse Diner. Here’s our menu. It’s all food for the soul, really. Take your time perusing. We have many great options for you to consider. My name is Wacky Alex and I’ll be your server today. Can I get you started with a beer or wine song?


We asked our social media communities to come up with songs about food. They delivered, big time! There were so many submissions that we needed to establish some rules to create this menu of music.

  1. No commercial jungles
  2. The song must actually be about real food that people eat. This does not include what animals, zombies, cartoon witches or monsters eat.
  3. No metaphors. No songs that just mention food but are really about something else entirely.
  4. Candy is not food but cookies and pastries are.
  5. Only one song per artist.

If you have more ideas for this menu, feel free to leave a comment.
