Jingle your favorite food for me...

NOTE TO ENTRANTS:

WHEN I ADD A POETRY TO THE FINALISTS LIST, YOU SHOULD TRY AT BEST TO WRITE ONE BETTER THAN THOSE POSTED THERE.

IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOUR ENTRY HAS NO CHANCE.

WHAT IT DOES MEAN; AT THE TIME, THOSE ON THE FINALISTS' LIST ARE THE ONES TO BEAT!

YOU MAY EDIT YOUR WORK UP UNTIL THE CONTEST CLOSES FOR JUDGING.




Using your favorite food create a jingle.


a jingle is: "a piece of verse or a short song having a catchy succession of sounds, usually of a light or humorous nature."

Example: McDonald's Commercial

"Badop bop bop bah...I'm lovin' it"





Make it funny!



Make me want to eat your favorite food even if I hate it.




All ages welcome so please;

no erotica
no adult humor
no profanity
no bashing
please be selective



Have fun!


One entry per poet
Pre-writes allowed but must be on topic
I will remove anything that doesn't follow the rules














Make me Laugh











I don't know many people on the site but I'd like to keep the judging anonymous.

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on June 25, 2007
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 150, Bronze: 75, Honorable mention: 3 people
  • Final notes:
    Thank you ALL!

    I asked for a jingle, and some delivered brilliantly written commercials, stories, and poems. Some were just placed here for whatever reason. There was a poem that was beautiful but had nothing to do with "jingle your favorite food".

    The winners are listed. Thanks again everyone.

    Contests are hard to judge. Whew! Glad that's over.
