This month I hosted Food 'n Flix with my pick of movies, The Goonies. Though not your typical "foodie movie", if you're paying attention, you can find plenty of food references and inspiration from the first scene to the last. I grew up watching The Goonies. It's been one of my favorite movies since I was 10. I actually thought that everybody loved The Goonies. Apparently, I was wrong.
Is it weird that it kind of makes me sad that some people don't love The Goonies? 'Cause it does. I'm sure the non-Goonies are rolling their eyes at me right now. That's okay. I'd pick Brand over Troy any day of the week (aka I'm not ashamed to be a Goonie-lover).
That being said, deep down I know that not everybody enjoys the same things (and wouldn't it be boring if we did), and I'm just happy that even though some people can't relate to that Goonie state of mind—they can relate to food. They can also be a good sport about me choosing The Goonies this month and still play along. That's enough to make this Goonie happy.
