Pronunciation: dis GUST a tor ee

Sentence: Gordie never met a snack he didn't like, even those that had been dropped on the floor. By other people. At some unknown time in the past. His love of disgustatory pleasures knew no bounds. Sometimes his friends called him "Grody" (for obvious reasons) or "Goaty" (due to his apparent ability to eat just about anything).

Etymology: disgust + gustatory (of or relating to eating or the sense of taste)

Pronunciation: FLOTZ - yum. In time, no doubt, the "Y" would be lost & the pron would become: flotzum.

Sentence: Fastidiousness wasn't one of Bob's stronger points. And from the time when he was a drover on the Barcoo, and nearly had to eat a barcoo sandwich to survive, his philosophy was that if it was food, it was edible. So when any flotsyum hit the floor, Bob quickly upgrubbed it.

Etymology: Blend of flotsam & yum: By analogy -when tasty food falls "overboard. Yum: yummy, tasty, scrumptious. Upgrub: grub: "food" & vb: to forage. Barcoo sandwich: Any outback food considered to be inedible, as (humorously) a goanna between two slabs of bark.

Pronunciation: FLOT-so-FAGE

Sentence: SickVic was a textbook example of an unrepentant FLOTSOPHAGE.In most social settings he appeared quite normal, but if he saw the smallest particle of food fall, he went down faster than Bush's approval ratings, often intercepting the wayward morsel before if hit the food court floor. One time he inhaled a FLOTSOPHAGE before it was even identified as one of Sookie's artificial fingernails. SickVic hasn't been seen lately, and legend has it he is presently a resident in the cafeteria at Doctor Beddow's Institute for the Culinarily Challenged.....and a more revolting "challenge of the day" I have not seen.

Etymology: FLOTSOm + PHAGE= FLOTSOPHAGE.....FLOTSOM:miscellaneous or unimportant material unintentionally jettisoned or dropped (as opposed to JETSAM:deliberately cast overboard)Anglo-French floteson, from floter to float, of Germanic origin; akin to Old English flotian to float, flota ship.....-PHAGE: suffix meaning "to eat" (latin)

Sentence: Barry hated to waste food. He did not know why, but if it fell on the floor, it tasted a bit better. It was embarrassing to go anywhere with him, as he devoured this lineoleyum no matter who was watching...it was even more embarrassing when he did it at his wife's boss's parties!

Etymology: Linoleum (floor covering) & Yum (exclamation when something looks/tastes delicious)

Pronunciation: three-seck-und-fool

Sentence: Jeremy was a threesecondfool who would pounce on dropped food, which somehow gained in attractivenss on its way to the floor. He was also known to try to threesecondfool other people by pretending to just happen upon a recently discarded morsel: "Oh, look! I must have dropped one of my shrimp. Ho ho..it's the three-second rule, you know!"

Etymology: Three-second rule combined with fool, both as a noun (he's a threesecondfool) and a verb (don't try to threesecondfool me!).
