Welcome to 90s boy band podcast episode day! I have to say, it’s one I’ve been looking forward to for quite some time.
I thought I’d celebrate it here on VM today by discussing food. Namely, boy band members favourite foods, recipes, and potato-related car accidents. You in>
Backstreet Boys
Nick: Cheese pizza, McDonald’s
AJ: McDonald’s
Kevin: Mom’s home cooking
Brian: mac and cheese
Howie: Mom’s home cooking or “oriental food”
Which is about the most American thing I’ve ever read. If you’re so inclined, you can even take a quiz about BSB favourite food. Go on, you know you want to.
Or why not just watch them telling us themselves?
Boyz II Men
pizza.
And Wendy’s pretzel cheeseburgers.
Please, watch it.
N*SYNC
Justin: Cereal or pasta BUT HOLD UP, HIS FAVOURITE DRINK IS MILK. That’s so Sweet Teen Club.
Lance: French Toast, Pizza
JC: Chinese
Joey: Italian
Chris: Tacos and chocolate ice cream (I hope together)
Or you could make for yourself Justin Timberlake’s Granny Sadie’s Pecan Pie or eat at his Southern Hospitality restaurant.
East 17
It sounds like baked potatoes with tuna, cheese and mayonnaise… were… a favourite of Brian’s.
Harvey blames potatoes for bizarre car accident
He fractured his pelvis in seven places, broke his ribs, punctured his lungs and was in a coma for three weeks after his own car he was driving ran him over. Just let that sink in for a bit.
Then he apparently sang about it.
Take That
Robbie’s favourite foods are/were: sushi and sashimi and his mum’s toasted tuna, onion and salad cream sandwiches. They sound fucking amazing.
Boyzone
Stephen: Chicken curry
Ronan: Pasta
Shane: Italian, steaks, pizza, McDonald’s
The other two… ah who cares
98 Degrees
Nick and Drew have a sports-themed bar together where you can get all manner of sporty snacks. Could defs go a platter of zucchini frites.
If you’re more interested in what they eat at home, Nick’s wife Vanessa has a blog and talks about food and entertaining.
Westlife
Shane: My mum’s cooking, steak, chips, lasagne, cornflakes and spaghetti
Kian: Steak and chips
Mark: Steak and chips, Irish stew, chicken
Brian: Japanese (please can you just look at this website it’s so satisfactory)
Nicky: Mum’s cooking, Sunday dinner, Japanese
Hanson
Zac: Loves all kinds of food (must be a youngest child thing)
Taylor: his mom’s brownies, fish, burritos, giant steaks, chicken, cheeseburgers with the works. Also tiramisu, burrata (YEAH BOY!) and risotto
Isaac: pasta
Apparently an episode of Cupcake Wars featured the boys as judges. You too can make Creme Brulee Cupcakes
WAIT HOLD UP THERE IS A BEER CALLED Mmmhops, brewed by Taylor. Amazing.
So please, allow Carly and I talking about 90s boy bands to caress your ears (with a “brief” sidetrack into silverchair. I know you’ll forgive me).
You can also find the show notes here, with links to everything we mention in the podcast. Yes, the videos too.
Hugzilla says
My favourite 90’s boy band was Noise Addict…. I wasn’t much for N’Sync.
Stacey says
Yeah to be completely fair I think my favourite band that consisted of all boys in the 90s would have been Metallica but they didn’t fit the parameters. I still managed to talk about silverchair for a good 10 minutes on the podcast! I know my boy bands but I can’t say I cared in the 90s overmuch! Not when Daniel Johns had all that haiiiiirrrrrrr
