Puns needed for project

There are some good sharp wits in this group, and with that bit of flattery
I'd like to sugarcoat this OT request for some OF it -

I'm working on a project for my website where I combine puns/cliched
historical images-cliches from everyday language/food images. The
finished product is a decoupaged image in a small frame suitable for
wall mounting in a kitchen. For example, "Marconi and Cheese" - a
classic photo portrait of the great inventor with a nice stack of cheddar
wheels on the desk next to him, thanks to the internet and Photoshop.
I thought of "Washington Selling the Tupperware" but rejected it. Another
is "Luftwaffleiron." Or "Hamburger Plain." I don't have much to offer in
return for a reader's assistance and don't see the idea going much beyond
being an attraction to my web page, but I will send the author the finished
product of his/her collaboration when finished. "Marconi and Cheese"
as a web graphic is available if you want to email me.

Sitting Bull, wearing a baker's cap -- Sioux`s chef?

The famous (infamous?) Western Onion Telegram.

The gentleman, adding attire over his underwear, visible through the
window of the Astoria Hotel --- Waldorf dressing

Or a similar picture of Lord Roquefort


And it's George shown stepping over the pile of plastic containsers.
he's _crossing_ the tupperware, not selling it.

Maybe it is a "half-baked" idea. Rawhide
frisbees for dogs didn't work too well
either, they turn into giant potato chips.
Or going to Tel-Aviv to open up an
upholstery shop called the Vinyl Solution.
