Gluttoberfest: Food and Wine 2009 - Updated 12/24 (Review is complete!)

[BriarRosie]

Oooooh I cannot wait for this! Between yours and Bendy's I am going to go into food porn shock!

I'm already going to call us the Food Porn Paparazzi. Imagine how much the other diners at the events will love us as we shout at the food, "Work it!"

Can't wait for the reviews ... I am up for any thread that includes the word "booze" and then continues with Yiddish Willie Wanka rhymes

... We're going to be there the last week of October so looking forward to reviews of the food at the kiosks and also how getting into the seminars that tickets were pre-purchased this year works (assigned seats, etc.)

Thanks. I aim to please. I'm hoping the people going the end of September will report back before my trip about the seminar procedures.

Your monitor you should not be licking
Your co-workers my fear you've been drinking
Into a coma you'll be sinking
but your appetite will not be shrinking

So close, but the rest don't match the first line so much. Good effort, though!

So with this quote should your mascot be Sam the American Eater?!
I was wondering when you would get to cracken on this! I see a few events I will be seeing you ! Can't wait Lori!

Don't you worry. You'll be mentioned in my review since I'll be seeing you quite often.

I like it! He's over the size limit for signature pictures, but I think he embodies the spirit of the food adventure.

Looks like it's gonna be good

Another foodie signing on!!

Thanks, Ladies! Welcome aboard. Now the pressure is on to produce a decent report.

You can always put the Sam Eagle picture in your first post as a "banner" type thing. That's what I did in my PTR with my Feast of Fools image that I made. There is no way I could squish it down, so I just left it big and let it welcome people to my thread.

I have to change shirts before my first student thanks to this! I spit juice all over myself like a toddler!

 

[kabuki]

Hey! If I hear you call out Meat Butter and expect me to turn around - I think you should respond to Soylent Green!

I suppose I could, but I already have Heimlich as my image. I am happy that people enjoyed my reference to Muppetvision, though.

Sorry, Elin!

For those who are going, "Huh? Meat butter?" Chelsi is referring to foie gras. She has told me that's what she calls foie gras, and I have to agree. But dang it, Disney doesn't serve "meat butter" anymore, so that will mock us. Unless Todd serves some at his dinner. Then I'd mock Chelsi.

But I love the Soylent Green picture! Now those would be fun shirts for the food and wine festival.

 

[TDC Nala]

There are apparently tons of Soylent Green tee shirts out there. You KNOW I'm going to buy one.

 

[Shenanigoat]

Meat-butter is my favorite food group.

Do not mock me ..

Besides Jason and I will be pressed up against the window while you all are with Mr. English!

I was shocked to see the amount of Sotlent Green t-shirts on the market! To think of the possiblities?!

A Shenanigoat after my own heart!

Just warning you right now ... Jay and I intend to pound on the table at V&A with our silverware while repeatedly chanting "MEAT BUTTER! MEAT BUTTER! MEAT BUTTER!"

OK! Jason is sitting with me and fell out of his chair (but not spilling his wine! ) and said OH YEA! It's on!

Maybe when they ask us if we have any allergies we can respond with - YES! I have an allergy to a meal without Foie Gras! Would this work?!

Your hubby is a skilled man!

And my Jason just said the same thing about being allergic to a 7-course meal without foie gras!

Maybe if we create enough of a scene they'll cave?

 

[dvc at last !]

Subscribing.....

We like your thinking! I mean we are 6 people wanting what we want! If we get the whole room going???!!! Maybe they will just throw Foie at us to shut us up!


Or we will be taken away by Mickey police and have our passes cut up in disgrace ... "Mrs. Murphy..please put down the knife and step away, we ask for your room key and leave quietly"!

Instead of causing a ruckus in the main dining room and taking it out on Chef Scott (who is apparently trying to get the foie gras back) may I suggest

more buttons:

 

[Shenanigoat]

With all the buttons and potential buttons we may have to make some type of Friendy-Scout type sash to display them all properly.

This is my "F&WF" badge.
This is my "drinking around World Showcase" badge.
This is my "food porn" badge.
This is my "I man handled Todd English" badge.
This is my "I pimped a thread" badge.
This is my "meat-butter protest" badge.
This is my "losing 10 lbs so I could gain it back at WDW" badge.

Naturally, there will be a Friendy-Scout oath as well:

On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to eat around World Showcase
And to imbibe the alchoholic squishies;
To help other Friendies at all times;
To keep myself full of booze, full of food, and full of good humor.

 

[TDC Nala]

I don't think I should be walking around WDW looking like Emil Bleehall.

I think that particular Soylent Green logo rocks. I think that shirt would get lots of attention at the Festival.

Meat-butter is my favorite food group.

Is that similar to the fifth sense being "umami". I keep hearing it in Kikkoman soy sauce ads, and some judge on Iron Chef America used it. I bet some guy on Madison Ave. coined that phrase and it really means "Fahrvergnügen".

Do not mock me ..

That's exactly why I'd mock you. We'd get the meat butter while you and Jason do your best Oliver Twist impressions.

Wow. I turn my back for a while, and complete anarchy erupts on my thread. popcorn:

Welcome to the snarky fun and insanity.

Yeah, I think if we create a scene, we'd have our DVC memberships revoked.

more buttons:

That's a less threating approach for sure. Free the foie gras! We accept no substitutes for Meat Butter!

I think I've earned all the badges except the manhandling Todd English™ badge. Once I get that badge, that will make me a Sam Eagle Scout.

Or I'll start talking about Tribe 602.

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. I wouldn't want to walk around World Showcase with a plastic cow. I'd rather eat one prepared for me at one of the kiosks.

 

[disneyfav4ever]

Subscribing. Your's and Brenda's, and whoever else has started a pre-trippie have gotten me even more excited about my upcoming trip.

 

[whogirl'smom]

Great title, Lori! You guys are already out of control!

I love the "friendie" oath, Laura!
