Plot[edit]
The Adventures of Food Boy takes a different approach to the superhero genre. The story centers around a teenage boy who discovers he has the superpower to generate food out of his hands.

Ezra Chase (Lucas Grabeel) is a top high school student who is determined to make his life extraordinary. He is usually challenged into eating disgusting things and manages to eat them without hassle. However, his goals get more complicated when food spontaneously begins shooting from his hands at inconvenient times. Chaos usually ensues.

After discovering that he has this "gift" (which only a few people possess), Ezra starts to use it to improve his status at school. Ezra's friends Shelby (Brittany Curran), Joel (Kunal Sharma) and Dylan (Jeff Braine) also start to get more popular. But as this new superpower begins to take over his life, Ezra has to learn how best to use it. He eventually is forced to decide if he agrees with his Grandma’s (Joyce Cohen) advice that, "Not all superheroes fight crime".[8]

27 July 2014 | by Filippa Olsson – See all my reviews
excellent. Food. Boy. MAGIC! what do you mean I need 10 lines of text?! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥! I don't have anything more to add. It is all about food hands and magic. There is not much more to it. The boy is blond, typical American kid. Not like super pretty but tots alright you know. Not too much not too little. Could get kidnapped and when you See the fliers you'd be like "aaah i have probably seen him" but then you'd be all like "no wait he looks like EVERY OTHER KID, that's why i recognize him! duh!". Is this 10 lines yet? let me check. Nope line number 6. I really don't know what more write. OK the poster is cool I guess. It's like a superman copycat thing. But with bread you know, to match the plot. Looks like good tasting bread but you really can't be sure, it might be a bit dry. I work at a bakery so I know how to spot dry bread however this one is TRICKY! Actually this is all lies. I'm so sorry, I haven't seen it. But it seems awesome. I'm going to download it now. Not like "spend money on it"-good but definitely "spend 10 minutes searching for it online"-good. Heard my bud Hugh Grant likes it so thats a plus. Have you ever thought about his hair? It looks good but at the same time floppy and kind of not good?
