Leave it up to Weird Al!!! He's great.

I was also thinking--

Our House--Crosby, Stills, & Nash
Cathedral--C,S,& N

Pour Some Sugar on Me--Def Leppard
Brown Sugar--Rolling Stones
Tupelo Honey--Van Morrison
Candy Man--Sammy Davis, Jr.

I guess those would be classified as 'food'.

The latter two, maybe, but the sugar songs have nothing do with either sweetening your tea or baking cookies! If the censors had listened, really listened to those songs, they never would have made on the radio!
