'Variety' Compiling List of Food Movies
I'm resisting the urge to dub them "foovies."
Variety's food blog The Knife is compiling a list of movies that revolve around food. A rather fitting topic, given the paper's subject matter.
Flicks include Mystic Pizza, Sideways, Eat Drink Man Woman, Tampopo, Like Water for Chocolate, and Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, among many others. You can add your 2¢ on the site—doing so gives you a chance to win a gift certificate to Geisha House.

Love The Cook the Thief His Wife & Her Lover. Obviously gruesome in spots, and the color changing room thing a bit overdone, but the food scenes are unforgettable.

No question: "Babette's Feast." With "Big Night" a close second.
