When I was pledging, our chapter president made the best tasting strawberry lemonade. It was served at most of the events.

We do?
Yeah. Maybe it's just a chapter thing. At least...that's what they tell us (that it's secret). It's pretty amazing tasting stuff.

On our campus, GPhiB has the Tomato food known to them...at least for Greek Week...They have a girl dressed as a Tomato and I dunno exactly why but something as a girl ..."Peel that tomato and take a bite" type of thing I can't remember the rest of the chant but as soon as I can I will post it!

It could be from 'Go Bananas"..

Go bananas! Go, go bananas!
Go bananas! Go, go bananas!
Lean to the left! Lean to the right!
Peel your banana, and UNH! Take a bite!

Red Hot Tomatoes
 
Or it could be related to a cheer from the 80s -
We're Gamma Phi Betas (Uh!)
We're red hot tomatoes! (Uh!)
We get all the boys
We treat 'em like toys,
We're Gamma Phi Betas (Uh!)

Somewhere I have a really cute Gamma Phi Beta/Red Hot Tomato t-shirt with a smiling tomato on it . . .where is that thing??

Tau Delta is known for serving "sand", which is like dirt, only with Nilla Wafers and french vanilla pudding instead of chocolate pudding and Oreos. We put in gummie sharks and things like that too. It is because our refounders were a bit obsessed with Jimmy Buffet and all things tropical, so our novelty party is "TauDeltaville" themed with leighs, blow up flamingos, virgin margaritas and of course, sand.

Coyotes always order Shirley Temples and garlic fries at a local restaurant where we always have Bid Night Dinner.

Our chapter had a couple favorite things but nothing official that I was aware of. We had this dessert a few times a semester that was called (I think) turtle pie (maybe? I dunno, for some reason that doesn't sound right when I type it out). It was mint chocolate chip ice cream goodness.

A lot of sisters would also joke that our chapter's "signature drink" was amaretto sour. It's still my cocktail of choice.

My chapter had this arrow cake we served at prefs and one by one, each PNM would come up and pull on a little ribbon in the cake and out would come a card with her name on it! A pledge sister and I were trying to remember how we did that--must've been alphabetically and the PNMs didn't know it--but their eyes would be as big as saucers when the personalized card came out.

WE had a Theta snack mix.

1 pkg of plain M&M's
1 pkg of candy corn
1 pkg of honey roasted peanuts. A handful tasted like snickers.

The thought process behind this snack mix was "some of us are nutty, some of us are corny, and some of us are sweet, but together we are a great mix."

Was it grasshopper pie, by chance? I think that is mint chocolate chip ice cream pie.

Depending on who is telling the story, another group (Alpha Phi? Fraternity boys?) broke into the Gamma Phi Beta banquet room and stole all the food for a post-initiation meal - except for the peanuts and olives. So, peanuts and olives are traditionally served after initiation. There is even a "Peanuts and Olive" song in the old songbook.
More recently, my alumnae groups in Texas always served what we called Gamma Phi dip - equal parts artichoke hearts, mayonaise, and parmesan cheese - whip it all together in your food processor - put in oven-proof dish and bake until bubbly and brown on top. Yummy on crackers.
Any other interesting/and or tasty food traditions?
Interesting, I have never heard of this before. Maybe it's a tradition with some chapters, but it certainly wasn't tradition after initiation at my chapter. We just went out to dinner after initiation.
