* HarsherInHindsight: When Homer and Marge observe how fat everyone is getting due to his positive restaurant reviews causing people to eat more, the former proudly tells the latter that he's making a difference in people's lives. [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS13E8SweetsAndSourMarge A later episode]] would have the town of Springfield be declared "America's Fattest Town" as a result of Homer's antics (ItMakesSenseInContext), which embarrasses Marge so much that she pushes for a town-wide ban on sugar that leads to chaos.
