Trivia[]

  • The reference to a value meal at Happy Burger may be a reference to Burger King, who heavily advertised value deals at the time; the name Happy Burger may be a reference to McDonalds, a burger restaurant famous for their Happy Meals.
  • The first actual burger restaurant physically seen in South Park was Wendell's Burgers in "Goobacks". From "The Coon" onward, a McDonalds-esque restaurant is seen infrequently but never identified by name.
