Food-Themed Ties for Father's Day

Maybe gifting ties for Father's Day is a little trite, but think of all the funny looks he'll get when, instead of paisleys or stripes, they're covered in lo mein, matzah, and Spam. Here are nine ways Dad can get food all over himself without feeling like a slob.
Pizza: If he hearts pizza enough to have it repeated all over his chest... $35.95 on zazzle.com
Matzah: The bread of affliction, the neck accessory of joyfulness. $25 on jewishsource.com
Dessert: If he has too many pink and red suits that need accessorizing, this black twill tie is full of maraschino cherries and what appears to be a strawberry shake. $14.95 on wildties.com
Sushi: Do you wear a sushi tie at a sushi bar? Maybe this is a rock band's t-shirt at their concert situation. $34.95 at the Peabody Essex Museum shop
Burgers: Getting ketchup on yourself is less frowned upon in this situation. $40.75 at zazzle.com
Bananas: For the banana-eating, polka dot-appreciating father in your life (they've got to be out there somewhere). $15 at SugarLust on etsy.com
Eggs: This appliqued vinyl egg probably doesn't taste good with hash browns, but it sure looks hip. $15 at SugarLust on etsy.com
Chinese Food: How often does your dad get to wrap lo mein around his neck?! Clearly not enough. $8 on absoluteties.com
Spam: Because everybody loves to wear some sodium nitrites sitting on clouds. $26.99 on funnyties.com

Just say no to food themed ties.

Oh come on, Dana, Martin would look great in a burger tie. I of course like the matzah tie.

I sent the matzoh tie pic to my sis, who is ordering it immediately for her Jewish husband!
