An Edible/Audible Tribute to Eric Clapton

Today is Eric Clapton's birthday, and since he's been in enough bands to get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame thrice, he merit's his own installment of Edible/Audible, the game for foodies and music lovers with bizarre forms of synesthesia. And to tie it together, they all need a common ingredient. I have decided that by virtue of its versatility, the peanut will be Eric Clapton. Let's see where this one goes.

The Yardbirds - Cracker Jack
Not just about the peanuts, also the big break for caramelized things. First packaged snack. Crispy and crunchy sound, now has a very old-school feel about it.

Cream - Curry with Peanut Sauce
If this is made right, the sheer volume of capsaicin will have your senses and your GI tract tripping for hours.

Blind Faith - Payday Bars
An underrated candy that should get more credit for what it is - a hard rocking salty blues band with a caramel center.

Derek & the Dominos - Peanut Butter, Banana, and Bacon Sandwich
Comfort food made up of an all-star lineup for when the love of your life loves the one person in the world who's cooler than you. Something we can all relate to. Also, the most likely food to have parts of it, namely the cholesterol-loaded piano coda, written by a schizophrenic.

Solo Career - Spoonful of Peanut Butter
Stays in your mouth for five minutes when you only really want it to last for about three.
