Sometimes a movie has a scene of people eating that makes me really hungry . . . they make the food look really good or the actor(s) do a great job of making it appear tasty.  Some examples:

* Kurt Russell eating nachos in GRINDHOUSE (DEATH PROOF segment)

* Jackie Gleason eating a sloppy Diablo Sandwich in SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT

* Robert Shaw (eating whatever the hell he was eating) during a conversation with Robert Redford in THE STING.

* Most westerns when a bunch of cowboys are sitting around eating beans (maybe the scene in BLAZING SADDLES wasn't very appetizing for obvious reasons)

What others can you think of?
"Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me the hell alone."

I think it was in WRONG TURN II, when one of the guys tore off a strip of meat that was roasting over the fire and ate it . . .  then it turned out to be the thigh of one of the early victims!  (About the time he swallowed, his girlfriend noticed the tatoo was still visible on the upper thigh.)


Remember, when you're a cannibal, every fight is a food fight!   :cheers:

Whenever Deborah Foreman has the munchies in Valley Girl.

"This is a tasty burger!" - I'm always craving for Big Kahuna or Uma's $5 dollar milk shake when watching Pulp Fiction.

If you're an Andy Milligan fan there's no hope for you.

wouldn't mind knowing what a wonka bar and all those other amazing sweets they had in charlie and the chocolate factory were like - probably disgusting now because that film was '71

The scene in THE GODFATHER when they're eating Chinese food and waiting to get a phonecall about the meeting with Solozzo always makes me want to eat lo mein.  There's also a good Chinese food scene in MAGNUM FORCE.

The scene from THE FRENCH CONNECTION when Popeye Doyle is standing out in the cold while Charnier and another guy are dining in a fine restaurant always makes my mouth water.

And how about when all the guys are in prison cooking Italian food in GOODFELLAS?

A buddy of mine used to always get hungry watching old cop shows, because of those scenes where somebody comes in with a box of paper-wrapped sandwiches and passes them out.

For me, it was always the hot dog stand scenes in cop shows.

The vomit-eating scene from 'Bad Taste'? Anybody?. . .no???  :question:
Raw bacon is GREAT! It's like regular bacon, only faster, and it doesn't burn the roof of your mouth!
