Line 148:
** In "Spell-Bound" (which was, incidentally, the first half-hour episode starring Pinky and the Brain exclusively) the first four ingredients for Brain's “Take Over the World Spell” are six lizard legs, two eyes of newt, two hedgehog spleens, and one half-eaten gingerbread cookie that’s been left on the counter overnight. Getting the final ingredient, a red dragon toenail clipping, is the main plot.
** In [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3e2pGHyG8A this short], Yakko provides his own, uh, unique interpretation of the original witches' recipe, with Dot, Slappy, and Hello Nurse as the witches, provided for viewers who - like Yakko, Dot, Slappy, and Hello Nurse - have ''no'' idea what it means.
* In ''[[Adventures of the Gummi Bears]]'', making Gummiberry Juice is far more complex than simply juicing berries. First it requires fresh springwater, to which six handfuls of red berries are added, followed by four orange berries, three purple berries, four blue berries, three green berries and one yellow berry, in that order. Then the mixure must be stirred ''slowly'' to the left, then to the right, and finally, the cook must tap the side of the cauldron to banish the bubbles, stabilizing the inherent magic and ending up with juice. Stirring it too quickly or in the wrong direction risks causing it to explode, and botching the recipe can have dangerous side effects on whoever drinks it. For example, in "The Secret of the Juice", Grammi purposely leaves out the purple berries when Igthorn forces her to make it, causing Igthorn and his henchmen to expand and float like balloons when they drink it.
