I knew what the theme was right away and even found the first half, but I didn't know what it wanted.

Another one that might trip up non-American folks unless they're familiar with the American definition of biscuits and gravy.

Ah, the top one matches with the below one.

I got the 3 bottom ones first, and was wondering what other ingredients could be found in poutine.

eh, Spanagram fits but I think its too associated with fast food. I've never thought of B&G or M&C that way. 'Family Meal' would have fit better imo. Typically eat B&G with family, make burgers (and fries) for family outings, M&C is a good side typically associated with a family meal/dinner.
The name is wackyteen for a reason. Never doubt.

They've done at least one very similar theme before, even with the spangram splitting the two words. I don't think it was food themed, but common words that go together or something like that.

Yes, they've done that split before. It wasn't food themed but this one was.

Pretty easy one, but I did get a little tripped up to begin with. I found salsa and thought I found mustard, so I thought it was condiments <_<. I feel like they were aiming for that because you can spell about half of condiment on the bottom row.

Lol I was sure it was types of jam. I found SALSA and that confused me and thought it was condiments, then when it gave me ROCK, it clicked and I got the rest of them almost immediately.

Add me to the list that found salsa first and was looking for condiments.

Also, I feel the spangram should be plural.

They shouldn't put the spangram halfway down, with it going (mostly) straight to the right. It makes it too free imo.

Started well but could not figure out the last 2 gems and while I could easily see 'jewel' I couldn't figure out what the rest was supposed to be.
