I'm trying to find a trope for WesternAnimation.The Raccoons:

In the original series, One-Shot Character Troy Malone had a voice that was a No Celebrities Were Harmed impersonation of Perry Como; he's Adapted Out of the Continuity Reboot The Raccoons: The New Adventures for now due to Perry Como's voice being unfamiliar to newer audiences and Perry being less prominent in modern pop culture.

and for another trope entirely:

In "The Chips Are Down!" The Pigs - Floyd, Lloyd and Boyd are forced to eat undesirable-flavored potato chips as punishment for a competition gone wrong involving the potato chips.

For the first trope, that would likely just be Adapted Out. Doesn't really matter what the reason for it is. However, it might be related to Small Reference Pools.

For the second trope, depending on the context it may be I Ate WHAT?! or Eat That.

First one sounds like it could be an Unintentional Period Piece if it's particularly old? But that applies more to the work as a whole.
