The Monday Question: Food in movies!

This week’s question might be quite a strange one, but it’s one based on food in movies. When watching movies there are always scenes of people eating or a character always wanting to eat something specific. When I watched Zombieland one character stood out when it came to food, the one Woody Harrelson was playing. He had an obsession with Twinkies. Since the product ceased production it seemed that the product would never be made anymore and it seemed a case of fiction turned into reality. Although production has begun again that movie made me wonder what Twinkies tasted like. They aren’t sold over here but when I was at the airport last week I saw a box of Twinkies and just had to buy it to find out. Turns out that they aren’t very tasty as all, so I was quite disappointed.

Which movie food has disappointed you when you tried it?

Since today is my birthday I have decided to give myself a week off and enjoy some other things, so don’t expect any other posts this week. Will be back next Monday!
