Kanye’s new album called So Help Me God, Swish, Waves, T.L.O.P comes out this Thursday and no matter what it ends up being called, we couldn’t be more excited. There’s nothing better than lying on your bed while listening to a new album and gorging yourself on delicious food.
But what foods pair perfectly with Yeezy’s 7th album? Don’t worry, we’ve got all the answers you’re looking for. After all, this listening experience deserves to be unparalleled.
Klondike Bars

Kanye is the kind of guy who would do anything for a Klondike bar. He displays his affinity for these ice cream treats by slipping them into his lyrics pretty often. For example in his hit, “Stronger” he says “Heard they’d do anything for a klondike,” and in “Late” he says, “Like them eskimos, what would you do for a Klondike?”
Either Kanye really loves Klondikes or it’s just any easy word to rhyme, you tell me.

Pay homage to Kanye’s Chicago roots with one of the most classic Chitown foods in the world: the deep dish pizza. He even has a song about his love for the city. If you don’t have any Chicago-style pizza on hand, we suggest trying out one of these other Chicago staples.

Kanye makes it clear in his iconic track “The New Workout Plan” that we should be eating salad. And who are we to argue? After all, thanks to Kanye’s workout plan, you’ll be the envy of all your friends. Need some salad recipes? We gotchu.

Celebrate the song “No More Parties in LA,” one of the singles off the new album, with the most classic LA food we know: In-N-Out. And don’t worry, even if you’re not in Cali, you can make In-N-Out animal fries at home.

Ramen

Kanye may be a college dropout, but he makes sure to tell kids not to follow in his footsteps. There’s no food that screams “college” like Ramen, so go ahead – show some “School Spirit” with a classic bowl of noodles in broth. You can even jazz up your Ramen with these easy tricks.

Any food from The Spotted Pig

Who could forget the time Kanye tweeted this to all his fans. He really loves this West Village gastropub. He took Kim there for Valentine’s Day one year and has been seen there eating with Taylor Swift. So if you really wanna channel Kanye while you listen to Kanye, eat some food from his favorite restaurant.
