Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
There's a play by Tina Howe called "The Art of Dining!." Not the most awesome play in the world, but it does contain some monologues about food!. Tina Howe is well-known enough that you should be able to find the play in the library of a reasonably large town!.

also, though not quite an acting monologue, Sylvia Plath's novel "The Bell Jar" has a wonderful scene that takes place at a business luncheon, and the protagonist goes on & on about why she loves certain foods (avocado, caviar, crab), and describes how she eats them!. The language is fabulous -- makes me hungry every time I read it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
