Foodie

from Mesh Music · host Mesh

About the ludicrous obsession with food, the song ”Foodie” skewers the plain idiocy of thinking food is something to be put on a pedestal and talked about with awe. As some reserve the humorless, quiet whisper-like attention to food, Mesh makes fun of this humorless, over-earnest trend. While your next door neighbor soaks his feet in his next batch of fresh chutney for that farm to table taste, Mesh points out the silliness of pretending that we are even talking about an art-form. Does food make you cry, does it make you angry, does it make you mournful. It has a flat emotional value, therefore Not Art. Silly, yes. A craft, with a nice spectrum of flavors to add, but it’s not art. If it was art, how could I simply train my employee to cook the same dish over and over after it was made. It’s a recipe. A creative craft. For me a big laugh. For you too? Or are you also thinking it’s mad cool? Trust me, I like and appreciate a good dish - even an exotic one. But this shit’s ripe for the mocking. Enjoy! Love- Mesh
