How to Start a Food Fight

Adults and children love food fights. Food is easy to throw, makes a big mess and is readily available. There's a time and place for everything though so don't plan a food fight in a restaurant or your mother's house.

Instructions

1. Plan the location of your food fight. The best place for a food fight is outdoors. A barbecue or picnic is the best time and situation for a food fight because you can clean up easily and won't damage anything.

2. Choose the food for your food fight. Food that smears on impact works best because it makes a large mess and won't harm the person you targeted. Try fluffy pies such as banana cream or pudding pies, tomatoes, muffins, potato salad, creamed corn, coleslaw or bananas.

3. Pick your target for the food fight. Choose someone who has a sense of humor and is willing to fight back. Don't start with someone easily hurt or sensitive as they may feel you are being mean.

4. Yell "Food Fight!" and continue throwing food at random people. Find a place to seek cover with a pile of food to throw. Continue the food fight until you run out of food.

Tips & Warnings

• If you plan the food fight ahead of time you can stockpile food in a hidden location. When the food fight starts you can seek cover in the location of the hidden food to gain an advantage.

• Don't throw food like apples, oranges or pears. They will hurt when they hit the target and cause bruising on your victim and the fruit.

• Be selective with your initial target. You want to start a food fight, not a real one.
