In a recent podcast episode, Will Friedle, who portrayed Eric Matthews on 'Boy Meets World', disclosed that a producer's peculiar food fetish was behind the show's iconic food fights. He described it almost as a 'sexuality' related to food, particularly referencing the episode 'Hogs and Kisses' where a food fight illustrated gender dynamics. Despite Rider Strong's lack of recollection regarding such requests, Friedle emphasized the odd nature of the producer's preferences. Danielle Fishel also testified to the episode's suggestive nature, comparing it to the film 'Nine and a Half Weeks', highlighting how it might not fit a typical kids’ show presentation.
We had a producer on the show that had a very strange food fetish. It was almost like, a sexuality when it came to food. So, that's where he was going with this.
And then the feet in the marinara on my face, [that] was all a sexual thing.
I think there is a movie called 'Nine and a Half Weeks,' where they have sex in a food fight. That movie was mentioned to me during that episode about 75 times.
Nothing about this episode said, 'We are still a kids' show.'
