This is one of my favorite topics in the world! Let’s not forget the famous eating scene in “Tom Jones” in which the hero’s appetite stands in for his, well, appetite (Albert Finney was so darn young!) –or the movie “Sideways,” in which the odd heroes do pair their wine with food from time to time — or the scene at the end of “Woman of the Year” in which Katharine Hepburn tries to prove she’s feminine by cooking a disastrous breakfast for Spencer Tracy ……. or …..

“Fried Green Tomatoes” showed southern food with such texture and color your mouth just waters looking at it. Also, the food fight in the kitchen is very reminiscent of food fights from my youth- easy for anyone to identify with.

“Waitress” with Keri Russell. Her character makes some seriously mouth-watering pies.
