Will Friedle is shedding light on the food fights from the hit ’90s show, « Boy Meets World. »
Friedle, who starred as Eric Matthews on the show, claimed a producer had a food « fetish, » and that’s why there were food fights on the show.
« 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, » Friedle claimed on his « Pod Meets World » podcast, which he co-hosts with Rider Strong (Shawn Hunter) and Danielle Fishel (Topanga Lawrence).
The group brought up the season 6 episode « Hogs and Kisses, » in which Rachel McGuire (Maitland Ward) started a food fight with Eric and Jack (Matthew Lawrence). In the episode, Rachel instigates a food fight to show Eric and Jack not to treat her differently because she’s a girl.

Friedle claimed the whole scene was a « sexual thing. »
« And then the feet in the marinara on my face, [that] was all a sexual thing, » he claimed.
Strong did not recall the producer’s food requests, but Friedle did.
« Cory and Topanga have one, too, » Fishel chimed in.
