During the Season 11 Episode, "Eight Misbehavin'," Apu and his wife have eight kids. In the beginning, couple runs into the Simpsons eating at the Swedish furniture store, and Homer is using a four-forked lego mechanism to eat. Homer eats all of the food on the lego, but when Apu talks to him, the food magically returns.
While much of what happens in the Simpsons is quasi-realistic, it's still a cartoon! And in a cartoon, food can get eaten again and again and never reduce in portion on the plate. Watch any family dinner scene. It's just cartoon-rules baby.
Rebekha Aka Something> This was NOT done
intentionally and it was NOT a joke. I can't
see the humor in food reappearing on a fork.
I agree with Spiral.
It doesn't matter where Lego comes from. Fact is, they were in a Swedish furniture store - it was a mockery of IKEA, which is Swedish. Non-Denmark-related stores and people can own Lego, too.
Oh no!!! This must mean that Homer must have got more food on his forks when it showed Apu. That is wrong because Homer doesn't eat very much. Duuurh! Where's the slip-up?
http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/IkeaNearYouView? Yes, just watched this episode last night and it is a take on IKEA (even the yellow and blue store colors). Is episode 11 out on DVD? Maybe they mention something on the audio commentary about the re-appearing food?
