11. Painful Food -

aie pie

("Aie" is the French equivalent of "ouch", and it's pronounced "eye", so it works as a rhyme with pie, but given the foreign language, I'm not sure it counts)

11. Painful Food - Owe Chow? (doesn't fit the first letter rule, but it just seems to fit so darn well ;))

15. As 'A' is to 'F' - Better Letter

*16. Evergreen Tonic - Pine Wine

You got #15 - Better Letter

but you're off on #11. It does rhyme well, but the first letter rule is in place because otherwise there could be tons of answers for each.

Edit: 5, 9, 11, &12 are still open

Wax Lax

If "painful" includes emotional pain: Hateful Plateful.

I know it's not the right answer (doesn't fit the rules completely for one thing), I just thought it sounded good :-)

I'm pretty much stumped on the others...

5. Fall Call ??

9. If not Alan Plan, then IDK.

11. I still think "Lunch Punch"

12. no clue.. Lit Kit

I can't think of another Greenspan (besides Alan). He was Chairman of Federal Reserve... Can't think of anything else.

12 is probably something short and simple, but I can't think right now
