I'm a little surprised. I didn't see "barbecue" in your list. Hmmm.

Actually, the four basic food groups (for those old enough to remember
that the USDA identified four before the "food pyramid") are caffeine,
sugar, salt, and fat. I've derived this by noting that at least one of
more of these components is found in everything that we REALLY like to
eat and that is therefore bad for us.

So, for example, your Reese's peanut butter cups and rocky road both
contain essential components of caffeine (in the chocolate) and fat.

Pizza - one of my favorites - contains generous helpings of fat and
salt, of course.

See how simple it is? ;-)

Now I just need to think about the acoustic properties of a a rolled-up
slice of Pizza Hut thin crust w/pepperoni.
