These Songs About Food Will Make You Want Dance Your Way Into the Kitchen

For obvious reasons, this one deserved the top spot on this list. Who doesn't want a cheeseburger (or a veggie-burger) in paradise? Fun fact: Jimmy Buffet and his crew wrote this song after being stuck on a boat for a while, with only nonperishables and other mundane pantry items as food. So to them, a cheeseburger truly was paradise!

Zac Brown Band may or may not have been aware that they created an entire anthem with "Chicken Fried." An anthem for what, you ask? That's not entirely clear, but that doesn't stop crowds from absolutely belting out the lyrics when it comes on.

There's never a wrong time for some jambalaya on the bayou. We're talking about both the song and the literal meal, here! Seriously, though, this sounds like something anyone could get behind.

The Beatles created one funky tune with "Savoy Truffle." While songs with food titles in their names often are a metaphor, this one is genuinely about chocolate. (And also what eating too much candy could do to your dental hygiene... 😂)

Logistically speaking, putting a lime inside of a coconut doesn't make that much sense. That hardly matters, though. Especially when you make a hit song out of it that pretty much everyone knows.

This one goes out to those who love a sweet treat after dinner (or before, if you like to live on the edge). Sammy Davis Jr. was able to create an iconic set of lyrics with an equally memorable tune. Remember, folks... if you think can't do something, just remember that "The Candy Man can!"

Have you ever noticed how often the color of an object is described with certain type of food? A raspberry beret sounds like the perfect summer wardrobe addition. Thanks for the advice, Prince!

"Mashed Potato Time" may be a metaphor for dancing to a groovy tune, sure. But if your parents told you it was "mashed potato time" when you were children, you'd probably come running down the stairs, all excited for dinner.

"If you like piña coladas... and gettin' caught in the rain," just might the most known set of words ever created. Not exaggerating, either. (Anyone craving one now?)

Listen, Ree Drummond may not like bananas—but this song has such a cool way of having listeners feel nostalgic for peaceful, carefree mornings... and enjoying a plate full of banana pancakes. (If you're like Ree and hate bananas, then just pretend the breakfast choice in question is a breakfast casserole or something! 😂)

Oh, biscuits! Here's another Kacey Musgraves song that'll surely get stuck in your head. She has a way of doing that, but honestly, it's nothing to complain about.

Here it is. You were expecting this song to make it on the list, and you were right. How could it not? Consider this your sign to play the tune each and every time you take a slice of your favorite pie.

Yes, there's an entire song about eating vegetables. Make sure to eat your broccoli, carrots, and all that other good stuff. If not, you'll have to face the judgement of The Beach Boys. (Kidding!)

Dark chocolate? Milk chocolate? Unsweetened chocolate? Whatever your favorite is, it doesn't seem like 1975 will care too much. They're all solid choices, after all.

Sugar will do things like make your coffee sweeter. "Sugar" by Maroon 5 will do things like make your day sweeter! Maybe they did that on purpose when making this song?

ABBA may be using "honey" as a term of endearment, but you get the point here. Also, anyone else going through an ABBA playlist withdrawal? Time to start putting them on repeat for the 100th time this year.

One listen to the trumpets that play during the chorus and you, too, will want to continue hearing music made for a sushi restaurant. Phew, Harry Styles sure knows how to get people on their feet (and how to get people to order from their local sushi joint for dinner).

Candy. 👏 Is. 👏 Food. 👏 People! 👏 How many more songs does this list need to include in order for you to believe that? Bow Wow Wow made this song as a means to support candy-lovers everywhere.

Being compared to a batch of fresh strawberries sounds cute at first. Just forget about the part where Franz Ferdinand explains that things that are sweet will soon turn rotten. 😅

Having an espresso in the morning is the perfect kickstart to your day, and Sabrina Carpenter seems to understand that. (Because she's clearly talking about the coffee order, right?)
