  • If the ikes of kosher products are Jewish, what about ikes that apply to a large brand with both kosher and non-kosher products? For example, Blue Bunny ice cream has a kosher chocolate chip flavor and a non-kosher rocky road flavor. Is the bunny Jewish or not?
    • Maybe he's an Agnostic Jew? Many Jews (especially Israeli Jews) tend to recognize the significance of G-d, but typically don't follow the religious rules of the Jewish texts.
    • Likewise, are the Ikes of halal products all Muslims?
    • In Sausage Party, it's established that yes, Kosher foods are Jewish stereotypes and Halal foods Islamic stereotypes.
  • Why do Cheasel T. Weasel and the other Brand X villains besides Lady X even exist? I know Cheasel is a mark of cheese (there is a blink-and-miss scene where a billboard is shown, claiming that), but he looks like a goddamn sex toy, for god's sake! How could the creators of the cheese choose such a disturbing character? As for the Brand X mooks, seriously. Apparently, the Ikes exist as long as their products, but why do THEY exist? They are blatantly nazi - and Lunch Lady X...I know she is supposed to be a meat icon, but she is freakin' ugly. As for Lieutenant X and General X, what products are they supposed to represent? And why I did not choose Lady X? She is a very ugly, mutant prune mascot. That had very serious physical changes.
    • For that matter why would Brand X have mascots period? A name like "Brand X" sounds like a generic off-brand, and unless we're talking cereal, off-brands don't usually do advertising icons.
    • Because Lady X is one and she needs protection.
    • Fridge Brilliance: Lady X is manipulating people in the real world, so she created other Brand X villains to obey her.
    • Cheasel could be designed to appeal primarily to younger children, which is why he has such a goofy-looking appearance. Think of something like the Trix rabbit, for example.
  • This is more Fridge Logic than anything else, but... in the final scene where Lady X tries to kill Dex, how did she think she could kill him when A) she's unarmed, and B) a literal army of Dex's friends are surrounding him by that point?
  • Why does Mr. Clean appear in this movie? Isn't this a story about food? He's a cleaning product!
    • Cleaning products are sold in grocery stores too.
      • He's the only one in the movie though.
      • Don't the Scrubbing Bubbles appear in one scene?
      • And the Brawny Man, as I recall. And Lady X was trying to pass herself off as a laundry detergent ike, wasn't she?
  • Are we sure that Priscilla Pusly's prunes failed to sell because she was ugly? Plenty of other ikes are also pretty ugly, and there's no sign of them being in trouble due to a lack of sales.
  • How the hell does a company recall a competitor's product?
    • Best explanation I can come up with is that Brand X bought out whoever produces/sells Sunshine Goodness raisins, therefore gaining ownership over the product, and then they recalled it.
  • How does the logic of the grocery world work? Can they easily go from the real world to the grocery world? Can humans enter the grocery world?
