That tastes great!

Dehydrated calceinate,
Soybean oil, butter fat,
Caramel center.
Wakko :
I'll eat that!
Yakko and Dot :
Hooray for sugar, 'cause we love it!
Chocolate chips, we want more of it!
Cakes and ice cream? Watch us shove it
Down our throats real fast!
Yakko :
Here's a candy bar, you tried it?
Wakko :
Hey, let's all see what's inside it!
Yakko :
Gelatinized triglycerin,
Phosphate, soybean, lecithin,

We like sweets a lot,
So give us all you've got
And we'll stuff 'em in our bodies
'Til they make our insides rot!

The Warners :
We like sweets a lot
But they make your insides rot.
So remember it's your body
And the only one you've got!
