Really, the only thing I enjoyed from this was the Crumby Picture bit (naturally).

I have to say, seeing Anthony Mackie felt awkward, mainly because I still remember him from that trainwreck Spike Lee movie SHE HATE ME (and all the while thinking of Spike's lackluster appearance directing THE SUMMER OF SNUFFY).

Whole lotta Cookie Monster in this one. Nice to see Ernie and Bert do the open and close too.

I always wanted to see this episode as a parody of Iron Chef, another show which I'm a huge fan of. There's even an Iron Chef drinking game, you score a point every time the competing chef brings out the ice cream maker.

On another note, when I think of Anthony Macky I immediately think of Falcon from the Marvel movies.

The bookends with Ernie and Bert were funny. The bit with Anthony Mackie was fun. Ryan and Leslie gave great performances as the ingredients. Nice to see Cookie's cameo in EW.

Yeah, I loved Leslie's cabbage, for some reason.

Oh yeah, the vegetables voices were hilarious.
