F.O.O.D., released under Danny!'s 1911 Music/Badenov Records imprint in 2005 (see 2005 in music), is the second full-length studio album from American rapper/producer. The acronym "F.O.O.D." stands for "Finding Out Our Destination" and, despite the depiction in the cover art, the album's content has nothing to do with any actual food or food-related themes (unlike MF Doom's second album, MM..Food).

The restaurant shown on the cover of F.O.O.D. is Bobbie's Diner, a 1950s-themed cafe owned by the Savannah College of Art & Design where Danny! was once a student.

The album, which was pressed up in limited quantities, was significant for officially introducing the wise-ass/sarcastic and cynical persona of Danny!, now known by the alternative moniker and alter ego "D. Swain". This was largely in part due to the mixed criticism Danny! received for his debut album, The College Kicked-Out. The jaded producer/MC took the feedback personally, openly lashing out on his critics throughout F.O.O.D. It was this, along with constant usage of self-deprecating lyrics that bordered on autophobia and smacked of depression, that made F.O.O.D. a far darker and more emotionally charged LP than its predecessor.
