Movies and food cravings?

OK, we all know the shroom is rather...different...(in the Minnesota sense of the word), but I Just wondered. Does anyone else get particular food/drink cravings from watching a certain film or TV series?

Whenever I watch Moonstruck I start craving Italian food, particularly eggplant parm--with Chianti, of course! Lately we've been watching the French series of Maigret, starring Bruno Cremer. Not my favourite piece of beefcake ( :P) but a great actor. Whenever I watch that series, I start craving strong, sweet black coffee. More than once I have had to stop the DVD to go make some. Or if I know an episode is up for afternoon viewing, I'll make sure I have some java ready to go.

What about you?

The only thing I crave when watching a movie is crushed ice water.  Take a cup and fill it with crushed ice, then add just enough water to make it all slushy.  Yum!!!

I crave chinese food whenever I watch the Lord of the Rings Trilogy--sadly I have not been able to eat my favorite greasy high caloric vegi lomain or sesame tofu w/  the evil white rice in a loooooong time :( I'm sure I would get so sick if I ate it--but man, a good chinese binge is great!

That is oh so true!!  I don't really crave any particular food when watching movies or TV shows, but every time a pizza commercial comes on I crave pizza.

Any time I watch Australian movies or movies with Australian actors, I crave seafood. I'm going to have to learn how to make tofu fishies soon 'cause just thinking about it is making me crave it!

Dude, this thread is all about the opening sequence to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Who DOESN'T want a chocolate bar after those credits?

I craved chocolate when I watched Chocolat. But that was kind of a given. :D

I don't think I ever get any real cravings while watching movies, but if we go to the theater, which isn't very often, popcorn is a must.
