This 1993 set from
Weird Al Yankovic collects previously-released, food-themed parodies onto one disc. It's a hokey, hilarious, and often ingenious set, including the classics
"Eat It," "Fat," and
"I Love Rocky Road"." The album is perhaps a bit too filling, with also-rans like
"The White Stuff" and
"Addicted to Spuds" clogging up arteries here and there. Likewise,
"Spam" seems like too predictable a target for one of music's greatest satirists. Nevertheless,
The Food Album is an enjoyable bag of treats. Just don't eat too much, or you'll probably get sick.
