What happened to "say is that a Big Kahuna Burger"?

Sorry...you posted that right after your comment congratulating the winner of your previous puzzle so I (incorrectly) assumed it was a line from the same movie. I will add it to the list.

I went back over the pages of this discussion and found the list was longer than I had posted.

This should be the current unsolved movies:

1. Peanut butter and ground beef.

Clues: Now, I already mentioned it might be cheating since was only in the movie due to the movie's subject matter...but if you do not hurry, you will not be able to eat this at the location in the film. You will have to use the "recipe" someone posted long ago in eGullet (!!) [Marlene's burger with PB]

2. a ritz cracker and chopped liver

3. French fries and gravy.

4. Eggs, oysters, whipped cream

5. Egg yolk, a turkey drumstick, and birthday cake?

6. "I'll sleep with you for a meatball."

7. a spaghetti-proof bib, two pork chops and a few slaps round the chops........

8. "Say was that a Big Kahuna Burger? That's one tasty MF'er."

9. At the beginning of the film: milk & crackers.

Towards the end of the film: "No milk & crackers."

(Inbetween the two there was gelato, champagne & cold coffee)

10. a bowl of oatmeal on a toddler's head and chewing each bite of food a specific number of times to aid digestion

11. The buttering of a baguette as Sartori.

12. how about a disgusting bony,lethal chinese meal??

13. ".......and a microwave that browns!.......melted cheese, ummmmm I don't

think I EVER tasted melted cheese before."

edited to add:

14. A large ham CLUE: about the size of a little girl

1. Peanut butter and ground beef. 

Hamburger America? It's a documentary not a movie per se, so I'm not sure if my guess is even valid.  :rolleyes:

Well, it was enough of a movie for me! You got it.

I was desperate to come up with something as obscure as the OP's Deer Hunter. There have been so many great ones since that have gone well beyond!!

But here is the rest: the "Guber Burger" is actually served at the Wheel-Inn Drive-In in Sedalia MO. Unfortunately for tastebuds everywhere, the Wheel Inn is scheduled to close on Labor Day for a new highway project. It has been there since the late 40s and the owners are going to retire, I guess.

I hate to hear about these old places drifting away. Something sad and inevitable about it. But I love the idea of putting peanut butter in a burger. Like a little patty of America snug in a bun.

I've got one.

Liver pate, ice cream and corn on the cob.

YES YES!!!!! And do you remember what he prefaced this with? It was priceless!

We are enamourmed of you at this point! Higs and I are in your honor! That

whole scene was priceless, so now we know the movie but remember....

"Is it possible to get hot food in thirty minutes, no it's not possible.......'

What about the cracker jack scene and the eating of the apple from the fruit

basket compliments of the manager? Bravo! Petite tete de chou! a hui hou!

Hello Craig Reeves!

That is from Babette's Feast. A very lovely film. Very.

This looks like a fun thread. What movie is this line from?

"Do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why, there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk, ice cream?"
