Dinner at my house always became chaotic when there were ziti; if cooked to the right state, certain types of ziti (IIRC, the smooth ones but not the ones with lines down the sides) can produce whistling or honking noises. My brother, the bassoonist, could get various squawks and bass notes, while I, who play flute, was more likely to get high squeaks. That's the only musical food I have much empirical data on, though.Chocolate Pi (who can go home for a week after finals!)
