Enjoy the musical parody form Epcot's FOOD ROCKS at the Land Pavilion. FUD WRAPPER (yes, spelled fud with a macron over the u) hosts this "ALL-STAR Benefit for Good Nutrition". Part of My Disney Park Memories "Music Mondays". Filmed in the year 2001. Thanks for watching. Subscribe for weekly uploads.

Fud Wrapper is my favorite, he is so cute and cool and I especially like how he deals with Excess by literally pulling the plug on them. I wish Disney made merch of Fud Wrapper. ESPECIALLY A DOORABLE, WISHABLE, OR TSUM TSUM!

[@mydisneyparkmemories1427]

Yes, Disney should have made more collectibles. They did plush for the previous show "Kitchen Kabaret". I googled Food Rocks Disney and saw a runDisney picture with a runner in a Fud Wrapper costume. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@kenleysandlin8302]

The person who sang every bite you take is a REALLY good singer

[@elizabethalvarado8698]

It might be Jess Harnell, who also plays "Pita Gabriel", in this show, but is mostly known as Wakko Warner, in "Animaniacs".

[@edwinvazquez4230]

I am neutral on Food Rocks’ retirement. This concert show, hosted by a rapper named Fūd Wrapper, featured contemporary pop tunes from the 1980s, and, if that’s not all, included a good moral about eating healthy. The attraction that replaced it was Soarin’, which I enjoy fondly, but it was possible for Food Rocks to stay.

I'm pretty sure I saw this as a little kid, or at least in passing while we were waiting in line for living with the land. I look to that section every time I visit Epcot expecting something almost all the time, but the fact that it was empty always confused me. Now that I see it, it seems vaguely familiar. emphasize the vaguely portion. very interesting

Fun fact, did you know that the refrigerator police lead singer is a repurposed Mr. Dairy goods animatronic?

*The U-tensils* is an American audio-animatronic pop-rock band formed during spring 1989 in Tampa, Florida. Their debut album was released in 1992, with "We'll Make It Count in the Kitchen" being their debut single. *The Peach Boys* are a Canadian-American audio-animatronic rock band formed in 1991 in Orlando, Florida. All their songs are parodies of hits from the 1960's to 80's. This includes "Good Nutrition", a parody of "Good Vibrations" by The Beach Boys. *Refrigerator Police* is a British-American audio-animatronic rock band formed in Kensington, England. *The Excess* is a Canadian audio-animatronic rock band formed in Vancouver. They are considered by many as anti-nutrition activists. *The Get-the-Point Sisters* are an American audio-animatronic girl group formed in 1988 in Portland, Oregon.

Great songs and puns! But... I feel like this may have seriously been hurting for better animatronics... The Milk Carton from the original show that was in here is so far the best one...

It was removed as Nestle dropped sponsorship, and lots of attractions close after sponsorship dropped. Also, it was declining in Popularity.

Basically Nestles contract with The Land was about to run out so Nestle decided they would renew if they could replace an attraction. Which is why this was replaced with Soaring

[@ceccappa4686]

Basically they wanted to close Kitchen Kabaret as it felt outdated. Micheal Eisner, the CEO at the time wanted something ‘hip’ and ‘trendy’, so he parodied popular songs. The transition was very quick from Kabaret- 2 months.

[@madden8021]

Don't mention this attraction to Jess Harnell, He'll get angry and go on a rant about how bad Food Rocks was.

[@michealfeeney8920]

While not a bad show in its own right, Food Rocks does really point up a lot of the shortcomings of that era, where an over emphasis on ephemerals in a desire to remain 'edgy' or relevant can overtake the message they are trying to put out there. I can see how the imagineers thought that going over exaggerated thought it might provide timelessnes, but to me these characterizations of the artists (and I can place all of them save the trio of 'excess) are painful
