Futurama food

So I am thinking about hosting a Futurama party for the new season premiere. I want to have Futurama theme food and drinks. First thing that comes to my head is Popplers (popcorn chicken or shrimp) and the Slurm recipe I found here https://www.theflavorbender.com/homemade-slurm-drink-futurama/. What other food/drink ideas do you suggest?

Interesting.... Odd.... Maybe too much work but appreciate you sharing the link

Definitely a lot of work. I was surprised to find out how much actually goes into making human kibble.

A big heaping bowl of salt!

I understand a few spoonfuls of LSD really gives things a kick.

The essence of flavor!

Make some little Hypnotoads out of a sugar mold with a few drops of LSD!

Heck, you're never too rich for a turkey dog!

Not the most interesting but I feel like you definitely need pizza. With anchovies of course.

Awa@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 3y

Or just swarms of things :)

GodzillasPencil@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

Perhaps with a Panucci's pizza box!

Malted milk balls as Nibbler poo!

Awa@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 3y

Simple and tasty. I like it :)

Against my better judgement, I'm gonna kick it up another notch.

Maybe some manwiches.

As for what the contents could be, maybe first come first served.

PlasticExistence@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 3y

Gas station egg salad sandwiches!

Penguin tempura!

Baseball cap full of yogurt!

Soylent drinks can be found in the beverage section in Walmart (PA, USA at least). I think they are plant-based protein drinks?

Absolutely one of the best low key jokes.

I would have imagined slurm being some sort of carbonated avocado punch but I guess a limeade is more accessible.

Didn't ask about games but I suggest Black Jack.

The Orphanarium Hors D'oeuvres from The Cyber House Rules. Gristle in a blanket (pigs in a blanket) and used popsicle sticks, they've absorbed quite a lot of flavor (I assume just popsicle sticks what once had a popsicle on them, thus absorbing some flavor)

Here's just about every gag food I can think of from the show that could be translated to an edible dish:

Popplers
Slurm
Manwhich
Glagnar's Human Rinds
Bachelor Chow
Bristol Myers Squibb steak (just serve steak tips in some novelty-size pill capsules?)
FemaSlim (some liquid/gel served in disposable food-grade syringes)
Soylent drinks
Coffee served in whale mugs
Deep-fried icecream sandwich wrapped in frosting and lightly baconed
Jerked "lower horn"
"Jamaican" platter: jerked meat of every variety
"LaBarbara's cooking": comically spicy Caribbean food
Sterno Nicoise (flambeed ice cream cake with blue frosting, probably a lot of work)
"Froot" cup with cheese filling
Molten Boron/Torgo's Executive Powder (I'm thinking serve some spaghetti with red sauce in tin coffee cans with the "Molton Boron" label and the chemical hazard symbol, and Parmesan cheese labeled executive powder)
