Food Rocks -
Closed for Good January 3, 2004 to make way
for the queue area of a new Epcot attraction similar to Disney California
Adventure's Soarin', to open in 2005.
Enter the theater, sit back and be entertained
by the Peach Boys, Pita Gabriel, Chubby Cheddar, and your host Füd
Wrapper. These Animatronic cartoon versions of foods sing classic
tunes with lyrics reworked to convey nutritional messages about reading
food labels, a healthy diet and eating in moderation.
Performers in the 12-minute show include
The Utensils, a collection of kitchen gadgets based on the band Queen;
The Refrigerator Police, singing a parody of "Every Breath You Take";
The Sole of Rock 'n' Roll, a fish that strongly resembles the singer Cher;
a piano-playing pineapple based on Little Richard; Neil Moussaka, a musical
eggplant inspired by Neil Sedaka; and The Get-To-The-Point Sisters, based
on The Pointer Sisters, singing a new version of "Respect."
Other songs include:"Always Read the Wrapper"
(Füd Wrapper), "Choose Before You Chew" (U-Tensils and Cast), "Give Us
Junk" (original composition, TheExcess), "Good Nutrition" (The Peach Boys),
"High Fiber" (Pita Gabriel), "Just Keep It Lean" (The Sole of Rock ‘n’
Roll), "Let’s Exercise" (Chubby Cheddar), "Tutti Frutti" (Richard) "Vegetables
Are Good for You" (Neil Moussaka) "We’ll Make It Count in the Kitchen"
(U-Tensils).
Prior to
Food Rocks was the show Kitchen Kaberet.
