Yummy Yummy (1989)

"**Yummy Yummy**" is a remake of the 1976 video of the same name, released on April 13, 1989. It is arguably one of The Wiggles' most popular Videos along with the remake of Let's Wiggle called "Everybody Wiggle!", launching the popularity of Songs like Hot Potato, Fruit Salad, and The Monkey Dance (which had first been released Years beforehand). Some songs were re-recorded for this Version, such as the previously mentioned Hot Potato and The Monkey Dance. Songs like Pufferbillies and Havenu Shalom Alechem were not in the original Version but added to this Video. No songs from the original Video were removed, except for Dorothy's Birthday Party which was part of the bonus segment at the end.

## Filmed

The studio scenes were filmed from January 23 - 29, 1987, just a couple of days after Everybody Wiggle completed production.
