This is so not food related (though the film title might imply otherwise), but have you guys seen Huston's Fat City? Seems like it might have been an influence on Aronofsky/The Wrestler.

I watched it on your recommendation, not long after you posted this comment--Raging Bull's a more obvious influence, but you're definitely onto something--I'd always wanted to see Fat City--thanks for the reminder
