Protesters are throwing messy food at classic art masterpieces to demand attention and action on climate change.

If it works for toddlers, why not for activists?

Tomato soup, mashed potatoes, sponge cake?

Mona Lisa ain’t smiling!

The logistics of such unpalatable deeds must be challenging.

How do you sneak a tureen of clam chowder or a banana cream pie into The Louvre?

In your underwear? Down your bra?

And what sloppy food goes well with a Monet, a Van Gogh? How ‘bout a Renoir or a Degas?

If so inclined (and you most definitely are not), which food would you pair with a famous painting?
