So, what sort of food would you serve at an End of the World Party?

[q10]

a google search turns up some recipes for something called ‘chocolate rapture cake’, which sounds thematically appropriate.

and there are always atomic fireballs.

Endangered things? My sister suggests talking cows.

I'd be inclined to think we should eat things which are bad for us, because they can't make us die of heart attacks if we're dying of the end of the world first. Although if everyone else is being raptured and we're not dying, this might be counterproductive. I would still suggest fondue though.

[q10]

the 5/21/11 folks subscribe to a different chronology. they seem to believe in a tribulation-before-rapture timetable, with the world finally ending in fire relatively quickly after the rapture, on 10/21/11.

[q10]

also angel's food and devil's food cakes.

and lamb.

and if there's anything edible with seven heads and ten horns, that couldn't hurt.

i also recommend bringing exactly seven sealed bottles of alcohol, and opening them one at a time. just make sure that the first one opened is something white, and the second is something red, and so on.

ooh, and locusts! you can probably find edible locusts (or something in the grasshopper/locust family, anyway) someplace.

Kahlúa. Midori.

one could also get a long way with the various Johnnie Walker color-coded labels, if the liquid doesn't actually have to come out of the bottle that color, but just has to be symbolically associated with the color.

i don't even know why i know this. i don't think i've ever consumed Johnnie Walker (any label) or Midori.

[q10]

the color ones are fairly easy. after that it gets harder. i don't know what drink comes out of the bottle as a vision of martyrs.

η: i feel like there ought to be a way to work Frangelico in for one of the last three, but i'm not sure which.

Fugu?

Hufu?
