Friday fun: Nom nom nom

Nom nom license plate? Check.

Did you know that NOM NOM was one of the New Oxford American Dictionary's top 10 nominations for the 2010 word of the year.

Here's how they define the phrase:
nom nom (informal) exclamation an expression of delight when eating.
plural noun (nom noms) delicious food.
verb (nom-nom) eat delicious food with obvious enjoyment.
adjective (nom-nommy) descriptive of delicious food.
[origin — imitative; popularized by the noises made by the character Cookie Monster on Sesame Street (usually as “Om nom nom nom”)]
Their No. 1 word of the year? Refudiate.
