Added DiffLines:

* InvoluntaryDance: Discussed with the Croon-a-Tune Mushroom topping, which is said to cause anyone who eats it to break out into song and dance. The Shakin' Bacon is also said to cause anyone eating it to be able to dance, although it's unclear if it's involuntary or not.


Added DiffLines:

** Level 2 of the Ice Cube topping is called "Vanilla Ice Cube", which states that it has "[[Music/VanillaIce a delicious early-90s flavor]]."
** Some toppings reference fairy tales: Level 4 of the Black Bean topping is Magic Beans straight from ''Literature/JackAndTheBeanstalk'', while Level 4 of the Pumpkin topping is called the "[[Literature/{{Cinderella}} Fairy Godmother Pumpkin]]", and its description states that it's only available until midnight.

* PermanentlyMissableContent: Each topping's level has a unique name and description of their qualities. However, the game will not allow you to downgrade a topping once it's been upgraded (unless you create a new account and start from scratch), and it won't let you go back and check the past levels' descriptions either. So if you upgrade a topping from Level 1 all the way to Level 4, you won't be able to check out descriptions for Levels 2 and 3.

* RedHerring: Conversed. The Level 4 topping for Anchovies is called "Red Herring". Its description promotes that anyone who eats it will become relaxed and distracted from all their worries.
