    Wow such a smooth solve! Loved the original voice in the cluing - like for AWESOME49A___ Blossom (Chili's dish that Men's Health magazine ranked as the "Worst Appetizer in America")[-------] and with the shout out to @scantor in LOLA6DBunny to be voiced by Zendaya in "Space Jam: A New Legacy" (credit to Sara Cantor for this clue)[----] (I should make @ mentions work in comments!)
