Lamentably, no. My gastronomic rapacity knows no satiety.

I was just internetting, and came across some list of foods that sound made up, but are real (like the bacon explosion) and it reminded me of this. One of the better fake commercials, because it taco bell really was doing that with all their commercials, layering one taco onto another, and another. Hilarious.

That's exactly the clip I was expecting. I remember it well too, it's one of the funniest things SNL has done this century.

I guess there can be a nice mixture in comedy. Some things can be funny because they are so obviously insane they are hilarious, like dumb and dumber. But the better comedy is generally off of things are half truths. Which is something south park manages to encapsulate so well. SNL has essentially a running gag that is 90% of their non current events skits, which is that someone is moron. That's funny once in a while, but the writers of SNL can't think of anything else to write about than someone being a moron. Which is why this clip stands out so much, and is so great.
