*The changing of the formula in Chunky Blast Offs mirrors that of The Hershey Company replacing the cocoa butter in some of their products with vegetable oil as an emulsifier to reduce costs without having to raise prices or decrease sizes. As well as Cadbury replacing the Dairy Milk chocolate on their Creme Egg with "standard cocoa mix chocolate". Both changes resulted in a large number of protests from consumers.http://www.today.com/food/chocoholics-sour-new-hersheys-formula-2D80555560https://www.theguardian.com/business/2015/jan/12/shellshock-cadbury-comes-clean-on-creme-egg-chocolate-change
*Stop n' Spend, the convenience store where Gene discovers the change of formula in the Chunky Blast Offs was previously seen during the "Robo-stache" segment of "Sliding Bobs", Its appearance in this episode establishes that the store actually exists in the series canon.
