Random Topics - Food Fights
Food fights are fights in which food is thrown at each other. Usually taking place in school cafeterias and being spontaneous, there are planned food fights. One such example is La Tomatina, a Spanish food fight in which people throw tomatoes at each other. In pop culture, food fights are a type of slapstick, being similar to the pie-in-the-face gag.

Sometimes they are effective in protesting the crappy quality of school lunches. Certainly if you ate in school cafeterias in the 70s and 80s you'd understand this. I guess it's an obsolete issue now, but I hated the toxic waste they served us in school, and often thought it was barely good enough for throwing. -- Submitted By: (ParkerTillman) on August 10, 2012, 2:22 pm - (-1 votes)

Both my parents told me all about having grown up during the Depression and seeing breadlines so I never got the appeal of wasting perfectly good food just to make a mess for other folks to clean up when there are starving children! That said, though, I have to admit I DO laugh out loud seeing a good old-fashioned pie fight in classic comedies-everyone from Chaplin to Laurel+Hardy to Lucy (who also got into a funny grape fight). OK, I'm being a bit of a hypocrite with that but I figure those are empty calories that would have gone to a green room. Off camera; however, there's no virtue to having these. -- Submitted By: (Pelirojo) on October 6, 2009, 2:45 pm - (0 votes)
