But there are so many more I love, and some good contenders.
One of the one's I wanted, "Leave the gun. Take the cannoli." from The Godfather. Love that line, but I've never actually seen The Godfather movies. I only know this line from You've Got Mail, I guess I like Meg Ryan movies.
Another good one: "I have been trying this new fat free diet I invented. All I've had to eat for the past six days are gummy bears, jelly beans, and candy corns." from Romy & Michele's High School Reunion
And of course, "A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti." from The Silence of the Lambs. (Is it possible to read that without hearing Anthony Hopkins voice?)
I'm going to put some of my favorite food and drink movie and TV quotes below, in no particular order of favorites.
