Foodworld focuses on a married couple, Tom and
Janet, struggling to keep their grocery store afloat
in the midst of an electricity shortage. Paralleling
this energy crisis is the growing crisis in their
marriage. Tom seems to be losing interest in Janet
and increasingly turns to Internet porn for
gratification. Janet, who already suffers low self
esteem due to her prosthetic leg and glass eye,
craves Tom s attentions to little avail. An
enigmatic stock clerk arrives on the scene as an
unlikely voice of reason and even clairvoyance.
Matters are complicated by the arrival of Tom s 33-
year-old daughter from a youthful indiscretion,
Ruth, who was put up for adoption and now wants a
relationship with her birthfather. Ruth finds her
own sexual promiscuity a constant frustration as she
weighs her actions against a staunch religious
background. As the story develops, the store s
financial woes worsen and Tom and Janet endure an
escalating series of catastrophes. When Tom falls
apart, Janet takes an unexpected action to save the
situation and themselves.
