Trivia Thursday FOOD AND DRINK 2

So it is more food and less drink this week. Now that I've typed them I'm very hungry. So I have to run to Chick-Fil-A now. Good luck!

It is once again Trivia Thursday. I will post a new set of trivia questions every Thursday. The rules are simple. Please put your answers in the comments section of the post and I will reveal the answers tomorrow or next week or whenever I feel like it. No Cheating! I trust that all of you will all use the honor system? That means you will not use Google, (or any other internet searches) or mooch off other peoples answers. Cheating is BAD. If your employer has somehow made it impossible for you to post comments (bastards), you may also email me your answers to me at MCnMarty@hotmail.com.
