Not the most euphonious or well chosen of names, IMHO :-)
Foodapest sounds like it might be sponsored by the FDA. "Pest"
is not much of an attraction in English even if it no longer
carries so many overtones of danger. Wasn't the "Black Death" an
outbreak of bubonic plague, caused by the bacterium Yersinia
pestis?
