Food for Thought is the name of the second album by The J.B.’s, being released in 1972 by People Records, which was a subsidiary of Polydor. It features the singles “Pass the Peas” and “Gimme Some More”.

The design of the album utilizes a fully typographic approach: the title uses what appears to be Helvetica Inserat, which is contrasted with Ludlow’s Stencil, Weiss Extra Bold, and various different styles of Helvetica. News Gothic can also be seen on the back.
