On Dec. 18, 1965, Herb Alpert's "Taste of Honey" was number one on the charts. It's from the album Whipped Cream and Other Delights and is so quintessentially 60s. I also love that the song — along with nearly every other song on that album — is named after food. Fortunately for all of us food inspired music doesn't stop with Herb Alpert, in fact, there have been a ton — a highly accurate term if I may say so myself — of them since.
I've rounded up a few of my faves, as well as a bunch of fakes. Now you need to tell me, is it a real food song, or something I cooked up? Ready to play? Source

Crazy, lol!
1"Brown Sugar" is also a song by D'Angelo, and, because I'm a completest that likes to verify everything she says through Wikipedia, ZZ Top.
2I sucked at that quiz
3There's a French song called "banana split" I'm sure you would love it lol
4Jack Johnson's Banana Pancakes is simply AMAZING! The lyrics are adorable.
5that was hysterical - i've only heard of a handful of those songs
6Great quiz--i didn't know #3, but I chose real because I wanted it to be. Now I've got to look it up.
7Where's cheeseburger in paradise, though?
I know way too many songs about food LOL
8ugh i can't believe i forgot "i like food" is a song by the descendents. a funny one too.
9Cool quiz
I didn't do too shabby 8/10.
10can't believe i forgot banana pancakes by jack.....oh well 6/10....time for the next quiz to redeem myself!!!
11"Supermarket Fantasy" is one of my favorite punk songs. Come to think of it, so is "Lost in the Supermarket." Fun quiz, Yum!
12As a food-loving music fan, I'm ashamed that I only got six right. But this quiz still rocks.

156/10

188/10. This was tricky - I know that I guessed on a few of the ones I got right.
198/10 - almost all were guesses, everyone should have gotten the strawberry fields forever, I know that song was drilled in my head from all the Across The Universe commercials! Great quiz Yum!
20I should have known Cibo Matto would have a song about chicken. haha..

279/10! Iit was #3 that got me
I've never heard Know Your Chicken, but I can just see it as a
bad 90s rap. For some reason it also brings to mind fluorescent bike shorts..
28I Like Food is a real song?? Ha.
7/10 for me, not too bad.
29ooo, so bad, 4/10!
30I guess half is better than zero.
315 out of 10............I'm really not up on my food songs, that's for sure!
32BROWN SUGAR is downloadable if you own ROCK BAND. Ask me how I know that!?
33Sad that someone could only recognize "Strawberry Fields Forever" from a recent movie trailer.
Why did you snub any mention of Weird Al's "Food Album?"
glad you guys liked the quiz! It was so much fun putting together. I didn't mean to snub weird al, there are just soooo many songs out there, I'll have to do a part 2 some time!
