People don't just eat food, we think about food, and write books about it, and sometimes even sing songs about food.
I decided to limit my list to (mostly) songs that I could actually connect a recipe to, but please post your favorites that I've left out.
This jazz standard
pairs with SteelerGrrl's Watermelon Salsa here. She also tells us how to grill
-----
Frank calls all of these vegetarian WFDs: here and here and here and here, from SteelerGrrl and TX Scotia.
-----
Rutabaga Boogie
To the best of my knowledge I've never eaten a rutabaga and don't intend to start. But I love this song.

There is of course a whole genre of food songs where they're really talking about something else.
If you want some seafood, here's a fishy WFD from ninkasi23.
-----
Most songs with sausage references are in the "talking about something else" group but I'm not so sure here.
Widespread Panic - Thought Sausage
Stirring the sauce... stirring... the sauce!
thenekkidtruth really is talking about sausage.
-----
Once in a while, a song means just what it seems to. And uses only two chords to do it.
thenekkidtruth joins with Hank Sr. to give us Jambalaya
-----
OK, this isn't a food song, but it goes well with ypochris's polynesian food diary.
Some smooth Hawaiian guitar would probably be better for our digestion, but I love Spike Jones.
As the sun pulls away from the shore
and our boat sinks slowly in the west...
-----
Tell me what that one means, I dare you!
The jambalaya link also has a gumbo recipe.
-----
and for dessert,
piecrust recipe from pixxer.

I'm counting on you to post more music now. I can think of another 20 songs but I'm leaving them for you. Remember that you have to edit the youtube embed code and make it http not https.
We always need more WFD diarists! Please consider writing something food-related for a future Saturday. Message ninkasi23 if you'd like to contribute.
