Savoy Truffle

By now, George was seeing a lot of Eric Clapton and 'Savoy Truffle' was a playful song about Clapton's love of chocolate. This habit contributed to Clapton's tooth decay and George was warning him that one more soft-centered chocolate and he'd have to have his teeth pulled out.

The song's lyric is made up of the exotic names then given to individual chocolates in Mackintosh's Good News assortment such as Creme Tangerine, Montelimart, Ginger Sling and Coffee Dessert. Savoy Truffle was another authentic name, whereas Cherry Cream and Coconut Fudge were invented to fit the song.

Derek Taylor helped with the middle eight by suggesting the title of a film he'd just seen called You Are What You Eat which was made by two American friends, Alan Pariser and Barry Feinstein. It didn't scan properly so George changed it to 'you know that what you eat you are'.
