GE Limericks

The Good Eats fans have done it again.  Check out these very
creative and funny limericks ... all G-Rated, I assure you.

There was a young lady named Cricket
Who liked to sit in a thicket.
She cut a long switch
To scratch at an itch
But her mommy said "Try not to pick it".
There once was a cooking show host
Who, though deaf as a post,
Had a musical theme
That played like a dream
'Twas nine or ten notes at the most.
A Food Network show called Good Eats
Makes everything from cheesecakes to beets.
With over 100 shows to his credit,
And "Stuff-It" to edit
It was stuck in a rut of repeats
There once was a snapper named Ginger
Whose scales were the color of cinders.
Though she swam very fast
She got a burn on her ass
And said, "Holy crap, I've become someone's
     dinner!"
AB once did a show about chili,
And dressed in a costume quite silly
He said "I don't care
what the other hosts wear..."
And changed into something more frilly.
One day, while brining his turkey,
Rachael Ray came to help, spry and perky
"EVOO", she said,
Rubbing it on his head,
I believe that we've got turkey jerky.
I do 40 buck meals but don't tip
So I hope that the waitron won't slip
If I drink too much wine
And reveal my behind
While he's running at a dangerous clip
I do 40 buck meals but don't tip
So I hope that the waitron won't slip
When he finds that I stiff
And goes off in a tiff
To get FHM and a grip
There once was a food geek from Georgia
Whose show on coleslaw might've bored ya
'Till he whipped out a gadget,
and we said, "We must have it!"
Then the rush to BB&B would've floored ya
There was an Italian, Batali,
Who offered to show his cannoli
He saw Starwind's thread
And crawled under his bed
And now he's gone over all howly
There was a man with a Scotch Bonnet
Perched atop Mr Happy to flaunt it,
The people cried, "Oh my!
"He's opened his fly."
"We sure wish he hadn't come out of the closet."
There once was a message board
where members often post whored
They'd start silly threads . . .
That would mess with our heads
And make us all pine for the fjords
A man called AB made some cookies
The "chewy" was better than nookie.
They could be improved
This is so misconstrued
The recipe came from a Wookie!
A cookbook collecter named Lee
Had one book from 1803
The authors were dead
But all the cornbread
Recipes were from some damn Yankee.
Chefshawn had a cheeseburger hat
And in it he looked like Seuss' cat.
But now his head is all bare
with only his hair
where the sesame buns once sat.
Chefshawn had a cheeseburger hat
and in it he looked like Seuss' cat
But now his top
looks like Jiffypop
just before it pops and goes flat.
Chef Mongo has a new son,
A gift that's second to none,
A Chef in the making,
Dad's cooking and baking,
But Quinn gets to have all the fun!
FlowerChick Loves Pretty shoes!
So many! It's so hard to choose,
Pumps or stilettos,
Uptown or in ghettos,
A lady where ever she moves.
There once was a guy named Mikemenn
Who watched GE again and again.
So a web page he built.
The member list went full tilt
And some became more than just friends.
There was a young hobbit named Merry...
Who helped Frodo reach Buckleberry
When it came time for lunch,
Lambas bread they did munch.
But the recipe is proprietary.
There once was a smartass named Stewie
Adept at the art form of hooey.
A shot of his head
at the head of Whisks' bed
Was enough to make my coke go "splooey"!
A brilliant young artist named Kinsley
Used his first name sparingly
He was really "Dick"
Which made this lim'rick
Harder than it had to be
PF is a linguist so cunning
Only one even in the running
He bet the fast horse
He's the smartest, of course
His wit's the trait most becoming.
There was a bench wench named Wanda
Who hunted the rare anaconda
When stretched on the rack
And given a smack
She yelped, '''twas just a double entendre"!
A cashmere-clad fellow named Grayson
Thought himself hot as capsaicin
He went to Savannah....
And then yelled, "Banana!"
When Paula asked him to "bring home the bacon."
She said, "You can WhiskMEaway!"
And went to the Midwest to play
It's been quite some time,
Since we've seen her on-line.
Guess that proves Stewie's not gay.
My account at Bed Bath and Beyond,
Is seriously overdrawn.
   I fear W's goons
   Will come for me some noon,
And my Plunger and I will be gone.

There once was a girl from New York
Who wouldn't eat seafood or pork.
   Twern't dietary laws
   That gave her such pause.
She just had no white wine to uncork


lisa e.

An admired chef named A Brown
Had a face that saw nary a frown
   But when speaking of chicken
   His heart rate would quicken!
And he'd shout "Scrub that chickeny
    board down!"

There once was a grouping of fans
Who searched for Old Bay in a Can.
   Each show sent them scurrying
   To stores and web sites hurrying
To collect each gadget and pan

Michelle Y

There once was a cellar of salt
And seeing it made us all halt.
   We scoured the earth
   'Cause the stores had a dearth
And it was all Alton's fault.

Michelle Y

Onion, carrot, and ground fenugreek
One game fowl, dry hung for a week.
   White wine, pepper and salt
   Teaspoon vinegar, malt;
Bake and serve on a bed of braised leek.

Alice R

The limerick packs laughs anatomical
Into space that is quite economical.
   But the good ones I've seen
   So seldom are clean -
And the clean ones so seldom are
   comical.

Joseph

A young chef and father named Alton
True brew he did steep without faultin'.
   The tea he did share
   With Zoey and Bear.
"Goofy" the latter did call him.



CBR

Never poach if you intend to braise.
Clear off foam, or your stock it will
   haze;
   If you follow these rules
   And buy all AB's tools
You'll be in for some real Good Eats
   days!

Alice R

There once was a guy named Alton
On his cookin', nothin' is faultin.
   So to our kitchens we go
   After watching his show
And see there we have a new saltin'.

TL

We're here in numbers, a quorum.
And sometimes we don't exhibit
   decorum.
   We're taken to task
   For some questions we ask,
But overall it's a great little forum!

info girl

When prepping a dish, for to season,
Avoid culinary high treason.
   Whether you braise or fry
   Include garlic.  And why?
'Cause, hey.  Garlic don't need no
   reason!

Eric

A request from a Canadian viewer
Who posts with the name "Judi Brewer".
   For ham she is looking
   So she can start cooking
Go to GoodEatsFanPage.com for sure!!

AB, he taught us to cook,
With fresh food, and Shirley C's book,
   In our kitchens we work,
   Good Eats is our perk
Dinner's on, come take a look!


Starwind

As I quietly sit down and ponder,
Through the channels I slowly do
   wander.
   Then I spring from my seat,
   And cry out, It's Good Eats!
Now I learn of the food that I long for.

Ali

On FoodTV Alton's our man,
Neither cuisine or laughter is canned,
   From cookies to brining,
   Its always fine dining,
Now go wash those chickeny hands!

BryanH

If you watch Good Eats, before long
You'll right all of your cooking wrongs
   Tune in Food TV
   And learn from AB
(But bring your own spring-loaded tongs)

Jon L

There once was a man from Atlanta,
On cooking he always would rant-a
   When making Good Eats,
   Please don't use your feet,
Or certainly you'll be taking Mylanta.

Starwind

AB is as smart as can be
And cooks well, as ANY can see!
   In the kitchen, he's fun
   With science and puns.
He reminds me a lot of... well... ME!

Al

Science and food is the way to go.
Be it beans, cookie, or pizza dough.
   "Yeah, but what about beer?"
   (and there was a great cheer)
Yes, but that is another show.

Chris S

There once was a show on Food Network
With a host who had many a fun quirk.
   He taught us to play
   With our food every day
While demand of salt thingies it did
   perk.

There once was a man who used gadgets
We would watch and say, "We must
   have It!"
   So we flocked to the forum
   To find where they store 'em
And dish about our cooking habits.

Marie

Our hero's a chef of renown
Whose show is the talk of the town.
   W tells what to buy
   And Shirley tells why.
But the main man is our Alton Brown!


Lee

Our AB performs such great feats
From ice cream to grilling of meats.
   He tells how and why
   And new items we buy
So for us all that's . . . Good Eats!

Lee

Alton's rep is wondrously snowy.
'Cause of him our pizza's not doughy.
   He's done quite a lot
   For those that he's taught
But the big hit is that little Zoey!!!
