Throughout time, we have documented our love affair with food through song. There's "Tiny Bubbles," South Park's "Chocolate Salty Balls" and my personal favorite, Wesley Willis' "Rock and Roll McDonald's". Never has a blog compiled the best and worst tomes of our tummy--at least, not until FoodSongs.net.
The blog's songs are compiled by Adam Roberts, author of The Amateur Gourmet and host of The FN Dish on FoodNetwork.com, and Dan Maccarone, founder of the New York-based sketch group Slightly Known People.
The site is in its early stages but has some pretty cringe-worthy musical efforts (for an excellent example, check out "I Seen Beyonce at Burger King"). Think of these misses as the first round of American Idol. Head over to submit your favorite food-themed songs to the authors.
