Food, Glorious Food!

Ah, November. The leaves are falling, the football is playing, and all thoughts turn to one thing: a ritual sacrifice of potatoes, green beans, and turkey (the bird, not the country). All that deliciousness can only add up to one thing. Arbor Day. Or (possibly) Thanksgiving. To get you in the mood to stuff yourself silly, S.T.A.T. Underground has set up the ultimate showdown to find out your favorite food-alluding artist/band.

Will Pearl JAM reign supreme? Or are you in the mood for a big helping of Red Hot CHILI PEPPERS?
Does BANANArama tantalize your eardrums? Or do you have a fever, and the only prescription is Blue OYSTER Cult?

Vote below for your favorite musical food group to determine who really is at the top of the food chain.
Side Note: In order to narrow down our list to the final fifteen, the following guidelines were used.

  • The artist/band name must allude to food and/or condiments, not drink. (Ex: Gin Blossoms)
  • Food reference must be spelled correctly. (Ex: Korn, Eminem)
