I've been to many church-sponsored functions, including funerals and volunteer luncheons catered by caterers who happened to profess the same faith as the given church, or by parishioners of the church themselves.
Thus far I'd have to say that of the meals I've had, the Catholics excel at making a particularly succulent holiday meal. The Baptists offer great home cooking with a Southern twang. Unitarian Universalists offered mostly store bought stuff so they don't really count, but the few homemade pies of theirs I've tried were tasty. Methodists also had stuff probably second in my list to the Catholics.
Would you watch an Iron Chef battle between religious houses, maybe as a fundraising event? I sure would. I'd also do my best to be there to eat the leftovers.

grandfather raven: Mmmm good point about the jambalaya!!
tawaen: Damn, I'll have to go crash someone's next Greek wedding and see if I can find some, I love baklava.
blonde forever young VT: Giggity! Yes that would be cool, if that were on some of the dozen or so religious channels rather than some evangelist spouting off Scripture, I'd definitely watch; and if the money made goes to charity to feed hungry people, so much the better!

True, but the coffee at the UU church I went to was superb, even if the food was store-bought. Full points for caffeinated-goodness.
For food, though, I've really enjoyed the Greek Orthodox. I mean, really, they have the BEST desserts... Someone made baklava.

How fun would that be?
They could ask for a love offering for admission and all monies collected can go to the local food bank.
