Line 12:
Occasionally, are horrified that they fed their family bad food.
 
Once in a while, it will be seemingly [[Ripped Fromfrom the Headlines]] (the [[All in The Family]] example came not long after a botulism scare on the east coast).
 
May be considered a [[Sub Trope]] to [[Amusing Injuries]].
Line 71:
*** A similar incident appears in a Halloween episode spoofing ''[[Twenty Eight Days Later]]'', with "Double Meat" Krustyburgers turning people into "Munchers".
* In one episode of ''[[Sixteen]]'', an accidentally unplugged fridge results in a [[Vomit Chain Reaction]] that wreaks havoc through the entire shopping mall.
* In ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'', "Applebuck Season", a sleep-deprived Applejack tries to help Pinkie Pie with baking muffins, but gets the ingredients ridiculously wrong, replacing chocolate chips with potato chips, baking soda with soda pop, a cup of flour with "a cup of sour" (lemon juice), and wheat germ with "wheat worms" (earthworms from a mud puddle out back).
* Inverted in an episode of ''[[Spongebob SquarePants]]'' - the titular sponge is thought to have unknowingly eaten a deadly pie, which will end his life at sunset. Squidward, responsible for bringing a pie-shaped bomb to Spongebob, feels guilty enough to spend the rest of the day doing anything Spongebob wants. {{spoiler|It's eventually revealed that Spongebob never ate the bomb-pie, but rather a different pie. He saved the bomb, which he promptly trips and thus throws into Squidward's face, producing a nuclear blast.}}
** A more straightforward example is when Mr. Krabs sells spoiled Krabby Patties that have turned yellow and spongy as an attempt to cash in on SpongeBob's popularity.
