To create the perfect mood for a dinner party, music is essential. Lately I have been thinking of "food" as a theme for music.
I browsed my music library and was able to come up with a few tunes that can be categorised into two sections:
1. Bands/Singers that are named after food-
Vanilla Ice, The Temptations, Cake, Pearl Jam, Salt & Pepa, Buffalo Tom, Fiona Apple
2. Songs that are named after food-
Cinnamon Girl - Neil Young, also covered by Stone Roses
Gin & Juice - Snoop
Tangerine - The Flaming Lips
The Seed - Roots
Ice Ice Baby - Vanilla Ice, great cover by Ben Kweller
Pour Some Sugar on Me - Def Leppard
Pina Colada Song - Rupert Holmes
Lollipop - Chordettes
Strawberry Fields - The Beatles
Scarborough Fair (Parsley Sage Rosemary and Thyme) - Simon & Garfunkel
This is obviously not a complete list so please post any ideas that you might have.

Ice-T is def. a spin on iced tea!
Prince has a version of 'Cinnamon Girl' - very good. Wide Mouth Mason have a song called Lagavulin, but it's not exactly a party song. More introspective than anything else.
