--> '''Merchant:''' Look at this! Yes! Heh, heh. Combination hookah and coffee maker, also makes julienne fries. Will not break! (taps on table) Will not... (breaks) It broke.

* In an early ''Series/VeggieTales'' story, the unnamed scallion was trying to sell a device called the "Forgive-O-Matic", which would cause God to forgive you of your sins.

* In the first ''TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles'' movie, Michelangelo starts doing the "it slices, it dices" routine as Leonardo tosses a pizza in the air and slices it with his katanas — until a slice falls on Splinter's head.
