| 14 | Creator/SethRogen and [[Film/ThisIsTheEnd Evan]] [[Film/{{Superbad}} Goldberg]] give the early 21st century's biggest [[TakeThat middle finger]] to the AnimationAgeGhetto. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | ''Sausage Party'' is a 2016 [[AllCGICartoon CGI-animated]] feature film that has the dubious honor of being the first R-rated, completely-CGI feature-length film ever produced[[note]](the OverlyNarrowSuperlative is because it is neither the first adult-oriented animated feature film -- 1972's ''WesternAnimation/FritzTheCat'' has that honor -- or the first computer-animated film to be rated R -- that would be 1999's ''WesternAnimation/SouthParkBiggerLongerAndUncut'')[[/note]]. It is a co-production of Creator/PointGreyPictures, Creator/AnnapurnaPictures, [[Creator/{{Nitrogen}} Nitrogen Studios Canada]], and Creator/ColumbiaPictures. Directed by Greg Tiernan and Creator/ConradVernon (yes, [[WesternAnimation/Shrek2 that]] [[WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens guy]]), it features an AllStarCast of Creator/SethRogen (who also serves as co-producer), Creator/KristenWiig, Creator/MichaelCera, Creator/JonahHill, Creator/BillHader, Creator/NickKroll, Creator/EdwardNorton, Creator/DavidKrumholtz, Creator/DannyMcBride, Creator/CraigRobinson, Creator/JamesFranco, Creator/PaulRudd, and Creator/SalmaHayek. It is yet another collaboration between Rogen and co-screenwriter and co-producer Evan Goldberg, and their eighth film with Creator/{{Sony}}. |

| 18 | An [[AnthropomorphicFood anthropomorphic sausage]] named Frank (voiced by Rogen) lives in a supermarket with various other food items and products, who all hope and pray to be picked by a happy customer. When a woman comes in and purchases Frank and several others, the foods are delighted when they are taken home and believed to be fulfilling their destiny. However, this "destiny" [[DeadlyEuphemism turns out to be]] [[EatenAlive what you expect it to be.]] After Frank is told the true nature of food, he must devise a plan to help himself and his surviving food buddies escape and discover the meaning of his and all of foods' existence, and all on the run from his true enemy, a ruthless douche (literally!) hell-bent on murdering him and all of his friends. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | This plot gets served with a side of adult [[VisualPun visual puns]], rampant profanity, [[DoubleEntendre double entendres]], and over-the-top sexual innuendos and ethnic stereotyping, all in [[TakeThat a raunchy parody of modern animated family films]] from the likes of Creator/{{Pixar}} and Creator/DreamWorksAnimation. |
| 21 | |
| 22 | A rough cut of ''Sausage Party'' (dubbed as a "work-in-progress" cut) was first shown during the South by Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas on March 14, 2016, with a Red Band trailer posted online shortly thereafter. The final cut was released in the United States on August 12, 2016. [[https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/sausage-party-series-amazon-seth-rogen-1235414811/ As of October 2022]], a television series follow-up, ''Sausage Party: Foodtopia'' has been ordered by Creator/PrimeVideo, with a 2024 release window. Co-writers Ariel Shaffir and Kyle Hunter will serve as showrunners and much of the original cast, led by Rogen, will return. |

| 31 | [[foldercontrol]] |
| 32 | |
| 33 | [[folder:A-C]] |
| 34 | * AccidentalPervert: Camille Toh places a large wine bottle between her thighs to unscrew the cork. The wine bottle [[BlackComedyRape does not enjoy it]] [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything one bit]]. |
| 35 | * ActorAllusion: |
| 36 | ** [[Film/{{Superbad}} Seth & Evan]] are sausages. |
| 37 | *** While on the topic of ''Film/{{Superbad}}'', Firewater says "Fuck me, right?", which is a line from the movie ([[BeamMeUpScotty although Hader didn't deliver the line, Hill did]]). |
| 38 | ** [[Creator/SethRogen Frank]] [[Film/PineappleExpress coughs after smoking weed]]. |
| 39 | ** Conrad Vernon [[Franchise/{{Shrek}} yet again]] portrays an anthropomorphic food character. |
| 40 | ** Nick Kroll was a Douche [[Series/ParksAndRecreation before]]. |
| 41 | *** In addition, Douche is similar to Nick Kroll's Bobby Bottleservice character. |
| 42 | ** This is the [[WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce third]] [[Series/ManSeekingWoman time]] that Bill Hader has been in something that involves an AdolfHitlarious character (albeit this time, he doesn't play it). |
| 43 | ** This one may be a coincidence, but considering WhatCouldHaveBeen, Creator/PaulRudd [[spoiler: is [[Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar used as a giant weapon again]]]]. |
| 44 | * ADogNamedDog: Several characters, but three that stand out are Douche, Honey Mustard, and Gum.[[note]]Gum is technically a less accurate example though, since he has an OverlyLongName consisting entirely of his ingredients, but for expediency's sake, he is called "Gum".[[/note]] Could potentially apply to Frank, depending on local slang and if he's all-beef, all-pork, or a mixture of both. |
| 45 | * AdvertisedExtra: Peanut Butter. He's featured prominently in the trailers, but he is really only in the shopping cart scene and its aftermath. |
| 46 | * AffectionateParody: Despite going out of their way to deconstruct, subvert and viciously satirize modern animated films, the writers have made it perfectly clear that they would not have done so if they didn't love them. |
| 47 | * ALizardNamedLiz: The main character is a frankfurter called...Frank. |
| 48 | * AllCGICartoon: And the first R-rated one![[note]]However, if we're getting technical, then ''WesternAnimation/SouthParkBiggerLongerAndUncut'' is actually the first one considering that CGI animation back then also meant animation done with computers, regardless of the style, and still ''technically'' does today, but as time went on the term became more associated with 3D animation, which is why ''Sausage Party'' earns the title more often.[[/note]] |
| 49 | * AnimatedShockComedy: While there is CharacterDevelopment and a solid plot, there is also a lot of [[CrossesTheLineTwice line-crossing]] humor along with innuendos. |
| 50 | * AntiVillain: The Humans. Of course, to us, eating food is 100% normal; it's what we do to survive. The film even shows that Humans have no idea that food is sentient and can actually walk and talk, requiring [[spoiler: Bath Salts]] to see all of this. [[spoiler:When a Stoner becomes high as a kite on the stuff, he is horrified to learn how much pain he has caused all of his food.]] |
| 51 | * AllJustADream: [[spoiler: After getting high on Bath Salts, a Stoner can see that the food is alive, and promises to help them get home. However, after falling asleep, he wakes up completely sober and believes that everything that happened was a Drug-induced hallucination. Naturally, he has the munchies as well...]] |
| 52 | * AlternateUniverse: The film is set in two different perspectives: that of the foods, and that of the humans. The humans are unable to see the emotions and/or movements of the foods; in fact, all they see is just lifeless objects. [[spoiler: That is, except when they're [[HigherUnderstandingThroughDrugs high on bath salts]].]] |
| 53 | ** [[spoiler: Frank and the gang discover at the end of the movie that [[BreakingTheFourthWall they are merely cartoons played by voice actors,]] [[SequelHook prompting them to enter our world to get revenge on the cartoonists.]]]] |
| 54 | * AndTheAdventureContinues: [[spoiler:The film ends with the main cast discovering they're cartoons, and walking through a Stargate to our dimension to [[RageAgainstTheAuthor cut the strings, metaphorically speaking]]]]. |
| 55 | * AnthropomorphicFood: [[DeconstructedTrope Taken to its logical extreme.]] How ''would'' food feel if it knew its destiny was to be eaten? |
| 56 | * ApatheticClerk: Darren clearly hates his job, is outright rude to the customers, and calls Camille a "MILF" not only to her face, but also over the intercom. |
| 57 | * ArtShift: The film switches from CGI to hand-drawn animation when Firewater reveals to Frank the story of when he, Twink and Mr. Grits [[spoiler: made up the concept of the great beyond (as well as the song).]] |
| 58 | * ArtStyleDissonance: The characters and setting effectively look like something out of a Creator/{{Pixar}} or Creator/DreamWorksAnimation movie, but bear in mind that it's written by the same people behind ''Film/PineappleExpress'' and ''Film/{{Superbad}}''. |
| 59 | * AscendedFridgeHorror: As it turns out, being AnthropomorphicFood ''hurts''! |
| 60 | * AtopAMountainOfCorpses: Douche, who drank a lot of liquids from all the beverages he faced, including the dying grape juice box, the tequila, and the vodka. |
| 61 | * AudibleSharpness: Camille Toh's knife when she peels Potato's skin. |
| 62 | * AuthorTract: In light of the tropes {{Anvilicious}}, and WhatDoYouMeanItsNotPolitical here, it's also true that Seth Rogen is a Jewish comedian who's not averse to recreational drug use, and this film has been a pet project of his for some time by his own admission. |
| 63 | * AvoidTheDreadedGRating: Inverted. It came close to receiving an NC-17 rating, but was eventually toned down for an R, which is saying something considering [[BlackComedy what]] ''[[BlackComedy did]]'' [[BlackComedy end up in the movie]]. |
| 64 | * BadassBoast: Let loose by Gum, whilst regenerating from a gunshot that took out a good portion of his ‘head’. |
| 65 | --> “Matter cannot be created or destroyed, human. You have made a fatal error in judgement. Let me educate you. |
| 66 | * BaitAndSwitch: When Gum first introduces himself he is behind a bong until he tells the food that they can call him Gum, so it initially looks like Toilet Paper declares the bong as the smartest being alive. |
| 67 | * BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: The foods learn it the hard way that they don't want to be picked by a human at a supermarket. |
| 68 | * BeliefMakesYouStupid: Averted. "The Great Beyond" gives the foods a greater feeling of purpose so they won't live out their days in the supermarket in paranoid misery until they're ultimately bought and killed. Frank ignores the fact that this is literally all the food has ever known and initially fails to get them to believe him just by telling them that their beliefs are wrong. |
| 69 | * BigBadEnsemble: [[OneWingedAngel Douche]], [[TheDreaded Darren]], and ''[[HumansAreTheRealMonsters humanity itself.]]'' |
| 70 | * BigDamnHeroes: In the climax, when [[spoiler:Brenda is chosen, Barry and the survivors from the stoner's house show up with the latter's decapitated head.]] |
| 71 | * BigGood: Firewater. He's the main food who knows the truth, [[spoiler:and he also made up the concept of the Great Beyond]]. |
| 72 | * BilingualBonus: The bottle of tequila that asks the band to follow him is labeled "Sigueme" ("Follow me" in Spanish). |
| 73 | * BlackComedy: This movie runs on it. It is rambunctiously vulgar and [[CrossesTheLineTwice line-crossing]] in more ways than one. |
| 74 | * BloodlessCarnage: But plenty of juice, crumbs and chewed-up bits in its place! In fact, when the wine bottle is uncorked, some of it splatters on the sausages to look like something more gruesome. Frank also shows the other foods in the market a picture of a bun and a sausage getting eaten with ketchup splattering like blood. |
| 75 | ** The Peanut Butter Jar trying to revive the broken Jelly glass and is even seen rubbing Jelly onto himself. |
| 76 | ** Amazingly, even [[spoiler: the severed head of the drug addict only has a bit of blood around the neck wound.]] |
| 77 | ** Averted when Darren’s eyeball lands on the peanuts and not only does it leave blood, but also leave the entrails in it’s place. |
| 78 | * BloodyHandprint: Happens with jam instead of blood when the peanut butter wipes his brow in grief after touching the jelly's splattered red remains. |
| 79 | * BodyHorror: Happens to the various foods: |
| 80 | ** A potato has his skin peeled off, before being dropped into a pot of boiling water. |
| 81 | ** A cabbage has her eyes gouged before she is split in half. |
| 82 | ** A block of cheese is grated. |
| 83 | ** A loaf of bread is sliced. |
| 84 | ** Nachos get microwaved. |
| 85 | ** Baby carrots are chewed up. |
| 86 | ** A can of noodles is split open with the noodles coming out like intestines. |
| 87 | ** A banana has his face peeled off. |
| 88 | ** Bacon is cooked alive. |
| 89 | ** A tomato is sliced in half. |
| 90 | ** [[spoiler: Carl]] is knifed in the back and split in half. |
| 91 | * BookEnds: The movie opens with a musical number ("The Great Beyond") and the [[CreativeClosingCredits ending credits]] feature its TriumphantReprise ("The Great Beyond Around The World"). |
| 92 | * {{Bowdlerise}}: |
| 93 | ** The Green Band trailer removes most of the profanity from the Red Band trailer. For instance, Carl's line is redubbed with him saying "They're eating children! '''''THEY'RE JUST CHILDREN'''''!" |
| 94 | ** Additionally, the toilet paper's line of him saying "You don't want to fucking know" is redubbed with him saying "You don't want to ''freaking'' know." |
| 95 | ** Brenda, attacking the human woman in the trailer, had her "Stay away from my sausage, you skank" line redubbed with her saying "psycho" instead of "skank". |
| 96 | ** Nearly a minute's worth of film has been cut out for its Latin American release. The [[spoiler:food orgy]] in particular suffered the most edits, with some of the more questionable moments removed from it. Time will tell whether these edits will be carried over to the home video release in that region. |
| 97 | ** This trope is even in effect with FX's airing. Despite how much it retains, it swaps the F-bombs or outright cuts them, which ruins the pacing at times. There is also a TV-14 version, where even more cuts are made to the original TV version. |
| 98 | *** Gum telling Barry to suck his "pink cock" is redubbed with him saying "Kiss my pink ass". |
| 99 | *** Instead of saying "For the love of shit, '''RUN!!!'''", the baby carrots say "I don't wanna die!" |
| 100 | *** "In other words we finally get to fuck 4x" has the F-bomb replaced with "bang". |
| 101 | *** The [[spoiler: food orgy]] scene is also cut down considerably. About halfway through, the screen cuts to black with the word "Censored!!!" until cutting to outside the supermarket after it's ended. |
| 102 | *** Despite all these edits, the film still earned a TV-MA-LSV rating, and two c-words were left in. |
| 103 | *** Not only that, the Spanish dub (via SAP) does not censor any such offensive language in either of the TV versions. |
| 104 | * BoozeBasedBuff: [[spoiler: [[BigBad Douche]] becomes stronger with each bottle or can of alcohol he murders and drinks]]. |
| 105 | * BrutalHonesty: |
| 106 | ** {{Deconstructed|Trope}}. Frank's revelation was delivered so abrasively that it was not initially accepted. |
| 107 | ** Played straight when Barry answers Frank's question if [[spoiler: Carl]] suffered when [[spoiler: he]] died. |
| 108 | * CampGay: The [[{{Pun}} fruits]]. There's also Twink, who goes as far as to give Frank a kiss on the lips before he leaves.[[note]]"Twink" is a slang term referring to skinny, hairless gay men in their twenties.[[/note]] |
| 109 | * CarnivorousHealingFactor: While only seen used by one character, there's no reason it has to be just him. The Douche who has fallen out of a shopping cart in the supermarket; as shop-soiled and damaged goods he is thrown out the back of the store with the trash. With his applicator broken and a split in his casing causing his contents to spill, he staggers around in agony. Then he meets a damaged carton of fruit juice who pleads for help. His first response is to rip off the juice box's price label to use as a band-aid on his split casing. Then an evil light glows, the Douche grins as he realises — and he drinks the juice carton. Suddenly The Douche, via this act of vampirism, is renewed — even his broken applicator repairs itself. |
| 110 | * CassandraTruth: Happens with Honey Mustard [[spoiler:(and later, Frank)]] when he tries to tell the other foods the truth about the Great Beyond. [[spoiler:Actually played with on Frank's part in that the food items believe him completely when he comes to them with proof. It's only when they realize they can't run, can't hide, and have no way of fighting back that they convince themselves he's full of it.]] |
| 111 | * CastingGag: |
| 112 | ** Co-director Greg Tierman, an Irishman, voices a potato. |
| 113 | ** In the Japanese dub, it's not the first time we hear Creator/RomiPark (Teresa) and Tsuguo Mogami (Carl) [[Manga/AttackOnTitan working in a film and series that deals with fighting against giant flesh-eating beings]]. In Park's case, it's also not the first time she voiced a character named [[Manga/{{Claymore}} Teresa]]. |
| 114 | * ChekhovsGun: [[spoiler: The Bath Salts are the key to communication between food and humans]]. |
| 115 | * CloseOnTitle: The film's title doesn't appear until the very end of the credits. |
| 116 | * ClusterFBomb: Present throughout the entire movie. However particular examples include: |
| 117 | ** Berry's "shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit!" |
| 118 | ** Teresa del Taco delivers one to Douche ''[[BilingualBonus in Spanish]]''. |
| 119 | * ColourCodedForYourConvenience: The food world is full of bright colors and filled with the sense of fun, happiness, ecstasy and comfort. The human world has greyish and toned down colors to show the mundaneness of life. |
| 120 | * CosmicHorrorStory: Under the belief that humans are supposed to be their saviors, food products greet being snatched up by customers as if they are chosen by gods. However, when they find out that their whole purpose in life is to be eaten, the movie takes a turn for the horrifying. |
| 121 | * CountryMatters: Douche's package advertises that he is "Country Fresh". The actual c-word is dropped a few times, also. |
| 122 | * CourteousCanadian: The Canadian beers dutifully say "Sorey" as they pass. |
| 123 | * CrapsaccharineWorld: The film could have easily fooled most into thinking this was a Pixar movie, hell, a kid's movie in general, thanks to its adorable interpretation of living food. |
| 124 | * CreatorCameo: Both directors have bit parts in the film: Conrad Vernon voices Sauerkraut, Twink and Toilet Paper. Greg Tierman voices Potato and a can of noodle soup. |
| 125 | * CruelAndUnusualDeath: Several. A potato gets skinned alive, a block of cheese gets grated, bacon get cooked alive, baby carrots get chewed up when they attempt to escape, and a cabbage has thumbs gouge out her eyes before being split in half. |
| 126 | * CurbStompBattle: In the movie climax [[spoiler: there is a battle between the shoppers and the food, before the former become aware of the food's true nature due to the bath salts. The humans GoMadFromTheRevelation and start killing food. However, the shoppers only manage to slaughter Druggie's food and a few more due to the surprise element. Once the food manage to get over the fact that their "gods" are not as godly as they think, they get the upper hand, easily overpowering the humans and killing them all]]. |
| 127 | * CurseCutShort: One commercial cuts Mr. Grits' phrase short, "Mother-" before cutting to the title. |
| 128 | [[/folder]] |
| 129 | |
| 130 | [[folder:D-H]] |
| 131 | * DarkReprise: Sort of. Although the song and its composition remain unchanged, "The Great Beyond" feels a bit creepier when it's sung the second time, as the audience now knows exactly what the titular place entails and Frank is desperately pleading with everyone to head his warnings. |
| 132 | * DarkWorld: Kitchenware is found in the dark aisle. |
| 133 | * DatingWhatDaddyHates: [[spoiler: When Sammy and Lavash return to their aisles, they are scolded by Gefilte Fish and Baba Ganoush respectively for traveling back together]]. |
| 134 | * DeadlyEuphemism: The foods are taught that their destiny is to be bought by a human and chosen by them. This actually translates to being cooked and cut for meals, and Barry ultimately discovers this truth with the other foods when the woman begins cutting and eating some foods. |
| 135 | * DeconstructiveParody: Can be seen as a particularly harsh one of the traditional anthropomorphism of objects and animals seen in Disney and Pixar movies. How would anthropomorphized ''food'' react to the fact that their true purpose in life is to ''be eaten''? The film also shows that anthropomorphic objects that act like human beings would logically engage in the same complex and unsavory behaviors humans do (forming belief systems, having prejudiced views, exploring their sexuality, doing drugs, etc). |
| 136 | ** Also one of ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales'', which also includes anthropomorphic food talking about religion. |
| 137 | * DeconstructedTrope: In most talking animal stories, there's usually one person who is able to talk to the animals, usually via a magical power. In ''Sausage Party'', this magical power is just [[spoiler:bath salts melted into a liquid and shot up. The stoner who shows us the effects also shows us just how someone would [[FreakOut actually react]] to talking animals, or in this case, talking food]]. |
| 138 | * DepravedBisexual: Using a douche is analogous to sex on the douche's end. Douche, one of the main baddies, is quite eager to be used on a woman who bought him, and is prevented from doing so. Later, he forces himself up antagonist Darren's ass, his equivalent of rape, to control him, explicitly stating that "a hole's a hole." |
| 139 | ** In the end, [[spoiler: all the foods celebrate their victory by having sex with each other regardless of gender.]] |
| 140 | * DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler: The foods take up the fight against their human masters, and they win!]] |
| 141 | * DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything |
| 142 | ** [[UsefulNotes/ArabIsraeliConflict Sammy and Lavash's relationship]] before [[spoiler: becoming an OfficialCouple]]. |
| 143 | ** Douche [[spoiler: drinking a juice box through the crotch area while the juice screams for help]] is obviously meant to resemble rape. |
| 144 | * DoubleEntendre: |
| 145 | ** The title of the movie itself. The term "sausage party" refers to a situation where a party has more men than women, and the "sausage" is equated to a man's penis. |
| 146 | ** The "Glamour Buns" are hot dog buns, they're all female, and [[VisualPun their mouths look like vaginas]]. Since the hot dogs are all male, putting a hot dog in a bun would, in the foods' perspective, translate to sexual intercourse. |
| 147 | ** The Irish potatoes are referred to as "Bag 'O Gees." "Gee" is an Irish slang for "vagina". |
| 148 | ** A movie poster, pictured above, featuring Frank (a hotdog) starting off horizontal and slowly bending upward with a giant smile on his face and the tagline "A hero will rise." Frank looks very reminiscent of an erect penis in the picture. |
| 149 | ** Another poster featuring Brenda and Frank has the tagline "get your fill." |
| 150 | ** The Cocktail Mixer bottle that gets harassed by Douche is labeled "Cherry Popper". |
| 151 | ** Frank and Brenda agreeing to just "touch tips", in their case by touching each others fingers. |
| 152 | * DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnFemale: PlayedForLaughs when Teresa [[spoiler:forces herself onto Brenda during the climactic orgy scene]]. |
| 153 | * DoubleStandardRapeMaleOnMale: Amidst all the [[spoiler:consensual sex Sammy and Lavash have during the food orgy is a moment where Sammy, bound and blindfolded, uses the safety word -- and Lavash doesn't stop]]. |
| 154 | * EarnYourHappyEnding |
| 155 | ** After [[spoiler:getting rid of]] the humans who killed and ate them all the time, the foods are free to make their own destinies, and Frank and Brenda are finally together for good. |
| 156 | ** Barry also learns to be less of a coward when he becomes the lone survivor of the meal Camille Toh cooks and has to save Frank all on his own. |
| 157 | * EatenAlive: |
| 158 | ** What really awaits all the foods once they're bought by the humans. Frank and the other characters find this out the hard way. |
| 159 | ** He is seen showing every food in the market an image of a bun and a sausage both getting eaten alive by an unseen women. The looks on their faces doesn't help, and the ketchup on them looks like blood. |
| 160 | * EatsBabies: Baby Carrots are the victims of this trope thanks to humans. |
| 161 | * EldritchLocation: The "Outside World" as Barry would attest after finding the used condom and the zombified corn in there. |
| 162 | * EverybodyHasLotsOfSex: And how! [[spoiler: After defeating the humans, all the foods celebrate by having a massive orgy.]] |
| 163 | * EverythingTalks: In addition to the food obviously, drinks can also count & we also have a douche, a light bulb, a roll of toilet paper, a tampon, and a condom that all talk. |
| 164 | * ExtremelyShortTimespan: The film takes place over roughly 24 hours. |
| 165 | * EyeScream: A head of lettuce has thumbs lodged into her eyes before she gets [[HalfTheWomanSheUsedToBe torn apart]], and a strip of bacon's eye bursts as they're being fried. |
| 166 | * FaintInShock: Some of the hot dog buns fall to the floor when they see a human woman eating the baby carrots. |
| 167 | * FantasyConflictCounterpart: Jars of sauerkraut forming a fascist dictatorship and genociding juice and kosher foods. Obviously an absurdist [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII WWII]]. |
| 168 | ** Mediterranean foods and Ashkenazi Jewish foods don't get along because the Jewish foods foods "invaded" their section of the Middle Eastern aisle and displaced the tabouleh. A bonkers version of the UsefulNotes/ArabIsraeliConflict. |
| 169 | * FantasticRacism: Sauerkraut is anti-Semitic against juice. |
| 170 | ** Mediterranean foods and Ashkenazi Jewish foods hate each other. |
| 171 | ** Peanuts hate Fruits. The fruits represent the LGBT community due its colors of the rainbow and the fact they're [[{{Pun}} fruity]]. The peanuts seem to represent Southern Americans stereotypically having conservative views about the former with one of them having a Southern American accent. |
| 172 | * FastForwardGag: [[spoiler:Right at the end of the SexMontage.]] Combined with {{Freeze Frame Bonus}}es. |
| 173 | * FiveSecondRule: [[spoiler:The Druggie attempts this with Barry... [[OffWithHisHead which results in his death]].]] |
| 174 | * FingerSnappingStreetGang: When the Fruit prepare to go into battle, they dance and snap their fingers. |
| 175 | * FlayingAlive: The Potato screaming in pain as his skin is peeled off. A banana's face peels off after the shopping-cart crash. |
| 176 | * FoodPorn: {{Averted|Trope}}. [[spoiler:It also literally occurs at the end of the movie. With the entire cast.]] |
| 177 | * ForeShadowing: |
| 178 | ** During the beginning of the movie, Barry remarks that he's sure there's a squished bun out there that he can go inside. [[spoiler:After Brenda accidentally squishes a bun by the name of Sally, the two of them end up encountering each other after the death of the humans.]] |
| 179 | ** According to Firewater, the concept of the Great Beyond came to him when he was "fuck-a-guy" baked. [[spoiler:Guess what he does with Twink during the orgy scene?]] |
| 180 | ** When Honey Mustard attempts to warn the other foods in the cart about the truth of the Great Beyond, Brenda questions whether he's honey or mustard and that it's either "make up your mind or kill yourself". [[spoiler:Honey Mustard chooses the latter.]] |
| 181 | * FreezeFrameBonus: |
| 182 | ** There's quite a few at the end of the [[spoiler:food orgy. Special mention goes to the gratuitous closeup still of a hairy anus, for no other reason than it's that kind of movie.]] |
| 183 | ** According to the cover, the cookbook Frank finds is published by Clam Bake Books, Inc. A "clam bake" is the DistaffCounterpart to a "sausage party." |
| 184 | ** Druggie has a carton from a Chinese restaurant whose name is “Pu Ping”. Interestingly, it doesn’t appear to be sentient. |
| 185 | * FunnyBackgroundEvent: It's a very subtle detail, but whenever someone says "Firewater", you can hear an eagle screech in the background. |
| 186 | * GainaxEnding: [[spoiler:Seemingly out of nowhere, Firewater discovers that everyone is simply cartoon characters and our heroes enter ''a stargate'' bound for the real world.]] |
| 187 | ** And that's not even mentioning [[spoiler: the food orgy.]] |
| 188 | * GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Carl slaps Barry and tells him to "snap the fuck out of it" in order to get him out of his HeroicBSOD and run for his life after they witness Camille Toh slaughtering their companions. |
| 189 | * GirlOnGirlIsHot: [[spoiler: During the food orgy scene, Teresa del Taco forces herself onto Brenda, and as a result Frank, Lavash and Sammy start masturbating to the taco-on-bun process]]. |
| 190 | * GodAndSatanAreBothJerks: The shoppers (who the Food look up to as gods) murder and eat the Food while Darren (who the Food refer to as "The Dark Lord") throws food away once it's expired. |
| 191 | * GoOutWithASmile: Honey Mustard cheered as he plummeted to his death. |
| 192 | * {{Gorn}}: A comedic example: because the characters are food, they regularly suffer horrific and gruesome deaths that would make ''Sausage Party'' the goriest movie in history otherwise. One scene even takes after ''Film/SavingPrivateRyan'', complete with a can of spaghetti trying to put its "intestines" back into itself. |
| 193 | * GulliverTieDown: The residents of the candy aisle clothesline a fat human with Twizzlers, then tie him down with more of the same so they can force [[SodaCandySplosion Mentos and soda]] down his throat. |
| 194 | * HairTriggerSoundEffect: Any mention of Firewater (*screech*) is answered by the distant cry of an eagle. |
| 195 | * HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: Happens with a tomato, and later [[spoiler:Carl]]. |
| 196 | %%* HartmanHips: Camille, who has a very curvaceous figure and huge hips when she walks. |
| 197 | * HateSink: Douche embodies his name both literally and figuratively. At first acting like a cocky frat bro over finally being purchased, he completely snaps and vows revenge on Frank for seemingly causing him to be rendered unusable in an accident. Douche proceeds to bulk himself up by murdering various products in ways analogous to rape before forcing himself up a store clerk's ass to control him so he can massacre everybody Frank loves. |
| 198 | * TheHedonist: The foods go overboard with this by [[spoiler: having a massive orgy with one another after killing the human Gods.]] |
| 199 | * HeroicSacrifice: A packet of mints and a bottle of cola throw themselves into a customer's mouth during the climax to kill him. |
| 200 | * HiddenEyes: Camille's eyes are shrouded in shadows as she massacres the food. |
| 201 | * HideYourChildren: {{Downplayed|Trope}} in regard to the anthropomorphic characters, but pretty much played straight in regard to the Humans. There's the Baby Carrots and Eggs that Douche interacts with, but there are no human children physically seen in the movie aside from pictures in the cookbook and cartoon illustrations on the Cereal Box (which is probably a good thing). |
| 202 | * HigherUnderstandingThroughDrugs: |
| 203 | ** Tying into the aforementioned AlternateUniverse, the only way the Humans can see the Foods walking and talking is when they're [[StonersAreFunny high off their ass]] on [[spoiler: bath salts]]. |
| 204 | ** In the ending, [[spoiler:Firewater and Gum get ''even higher'' and realize [[BreakingTheFourthWall they're cartoons in a movie]]]]. |
| 205 | * HistoricalHeroUpgrade: In-universe; The foods believe that the gods are good and they don't know the gods' true nature. |
| 206 | * HumansAreTheRealMonsters: It doesn't seem this way to the foods at first, and they're in fact made to believe humans are their saviors. [[WhamShot Then a potato gets his skin peeled off...]] |
| 207 | * HumansAreBastards: To the food, very much so, but only after learning what their true fate is outside of the Grocery Store doors. It is {{justified|Trope}} however as the humans do not know that the food are alive. Even when Druggie finds the food is alive, he really is willing to help them get home. |
| 208 | ** When the Humans are [[spoiler: shot with toothpicks laced with Bath Salts, they begin to see the food for what they really are. Do they try to make contact with these new and intelligent beings? No, they simply begin killing them outright in a more direct manner than before.]] |
| 209 | * HumansAreCthulhu: At first the food view the humans as divine beings. They then start to mutilate and eat them for no understandable reason (at least in the foods' perspective). According to Firewater, the more foods they eat, the stronger they become...because, of course, food is what gives living beings energy. |
| 210 | * HumansAreMorons: Every human character is presented as being quite dumb. Special mention to [[spoiler:Druggie, [[TooDumbToLive whose ineptitude ends up getting him killed]].]] |
| 211 | * HurricaneOfPuns: This movie is chock-full of {{Stealth Pun}}s, {{Visual Pun}}s, and {{Punny Name}}s. |
| 212 | ** In fact, this is a RunningGag with [[BigBad Douche]] where he keeps accidentally making food puns. |
| 213 | * HypocriticalHumor: [[spoiler: The Hitler-esque sauerkraut who wants to exterminate the juice calls Frank an intolerant piece of shit when he tells the food that "The Great Beyond" is a lie.]] |
| 214 | [[/folder]] |
| 215 | |
| 216 | [[folder:I-P]] |
| 217 | * IncompatibleOrientation: Lesbian taco Teresa falls for Brenda. Though Brenda reciprocates and is willing to give it a try, she refuses due to already having a boyfriend. |
| 218 | * IHaveAFamily: A tomato calls out that he's "got a [[GratuitousItalian famiglia]]" before the woman [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe chops him in half]]. |
| 219 | * TheImmodestOrgasm: How the [[spoiler:food orgy, er, climaxes]]. It manages to ''scare a flock of birds'' off the roof of the market. |
| 220 | * IndestructibleEdible: A Twinkie is one of the Non-Perishables. |
| 221 | %% * IntentionallyAwkwardTitle |
| 222 | * InterspeciesRomance: A variant in terms of food groups. Sausages, which are part of the meat group, are known to have romantic relationships with hot dog buns, which are part of the grains group. The main relationship here is between Frank, a sausage, and Brenda, a hot dog bun. |
| 223 | * {{Irony}}: The humans do take food to The Great Beyond, just not in the way they thought. |
| 224 | * IWantMyMommy: Before the baby carrots are eaten, one screams for their mother. |
| 225 | * JerkAss: When your name is Douche, it's pretty apparent fate has already spelled out your persona. |
| 226 | * JerkassHasAPoint: Frank telling off the other groceries for not believing him may have been harsh, but you can’t exactly disagree with him since they are basically believing something blindly. It really shows how the groceries reacted when they find out Frank was right. |
| 227 | * KillTheGod: The foods decide to do this when they realize that it's possible to kill humans and they learn the truth about the Great Beyond. |
| 228 | * LamePunReaction: When trying to tell the supermarket [[spoiler: the truth about the great beyond]], Frank starts off with telling them to lend their ears. . . of corn. The corn themselves just groan and roll their eyes. |
| 229 | * LargeHam: Carl, especially when he sees the woman eating baby carrots. |
| 230 | -->"They're eating children! '''''FUCKING CHILDREN!!!'''''" |
| 231 | * LetsMeetTheMeat: The film plays around with the concept and the implications that revolve around it, as the foods are led to believe that humans taking them home is a good thing and are outright horrified when they discover that humans eat them. |
| 232 | * LipstickLesbian: Teresa is attracted to Brenda and is very feminine. |
| 233 | * LiteralMetaphor: Douche is well, a douche. |
| 234 | * LovecraftLite: The whole story has all the CosmicHorrorStory markers, yet it makes the food protagonists successfully fighting back their "gods". |
| 235 | * LostInTranslation: Many of the food-related jokes that involve puns are lost in some foreign dubs, especially ''any'' of the jokes regarding the similarity between the pronunciation of the word "Jews" with "Juice". |
| 236 | * MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext: [[spoiler:[[FoodPorn Food]] ''[[LiteralMetaphor actually]]'' [[{{Squick}} having porn.]]]] |
| 237 | * MaleGaze: |
| 238 | ** Douche pining after Camille Toh as she leaves the supermarket without him is punctuated by a slow-motion shot of her large bottom walking away. |
| 239 | ** Also, ''lesbian'' gaze with all of the times Teresa stares at Brenda's butt. |
| 240 | * MarshmallowHell: |
| 241 | ** PlayedForLaughs in this [[http://i.imgur.com/GJJfbnl.jpg poster]] with Frank and Brenda. |
| 242 | ** The "Great Beyond" musical number features a head of red lettuce smiling as a human woman hugs him against her breasts. |
| 243 | * MagicalNativeAmerican: Firewater is one of the few foods to be aware of what awaits the foods once they leave the grocery store. |
| 244 | * MassOhCrap: |
| 245 | ** Happens whenever Darren shows up to throw expired products away. |
| 246 | ** Happens when all the foods purchased by Camille Toh (Barry and Carl included) learn the truth about "The Great Beyond". Pretty much summed up by Carl. |
| 247 | -->'''Carl''': [[PunctuatedForEmphasis What. The.]] [[PrecisionFStrike Fuck?!]] |
| 248 | ** All of Druggie's foods when they realize that he has sobered up. |
| 249 | ** [[spoiler: All the foods in the store when they see their "gods" are eating them, [[CassandraTruth seeing Frank was right]].]] |
| 250 | * MediumAwareness: [[spoiler: The movie ends with Firewater and Gum once again getting high and realizing that none of the characters are actually real and that their entire world is actually a cartoon. Gum builds a Stargate out of a toilet seat and invites the main characters to travel into the real world [[RageAgainstTheAuthor to teach their creators a lesson]].]] |
| 251 | * MissingStepsPlan: [[spoiler:Just because Frank had proof that "The Great Beyond" was a lie doesn't mean everyone would automatically believe him, especially since he didn't have a plan to save everyone from being eaten by the gods.]] Barry even calls him out on it for calling them stupid for not believing in him. |
| 252 | * MooseAndMapleSyrup: A six-pack of Canadian beer brushes past Brenda in the liquor aisle, with each can giving a cheery "Sooree!" as it does. |
| 253 | * MortonsFork: If the foods aren't bought by the grocers, they'll be going straight to the trash can. But if the foods ARE bought by the grocers, they'll be murdered...gruesomely. |
| 254 | * MouthCam: When the woman crunches up the baby carrots. |
| 255 | * MushroomSamba: Humans have to through one of these in order to [[spoiler:see the food being sentient]]. |
| 256 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:When Druggie gets high on Bath Salts, he is able to see that food is actually alive and sentient. After being chewed out by the food (and a Toilet roll) he is visibly distraught over how he has made them all suffer, and vows to never eat food again. Unfortunately, this doesn't last...]] |
| 257 | -->[[spoiler:'''Druggie:''' I've committed Pizza Genocide!]] |
| 258 | * NationalAnimalStereotypes: Or rather "Food" instead of "Animal". The movie leaves no stone unturrned when portraying different people as different foods, except for the French. |
| 259 | ** Sausages and Buns are {{White Anglo Saxon Protestant}}s. |
| 260 | ** Potatoes are Irish. |
| 261 | ** Tomatoes are Italian. |
| 262 | ** Mediterranean Foods are Muslims while Ashkenazi Jewish Foods are Jews. And, of course, they don't get along unless Hummus is involved. |
| 263 | ** Juice are Orthodox Jews, as seen in the flashback, with the notable exception of the juice box Douche murders. |
| 264 | ** Chip Bags are Fat People. |
| 265 | ** Fruits are Gay. |
| 266 | ** Tea Bags are British. |
| 267 | ** Olives are Greek. |
| 268 | ** Soy Sauces and Noodles are Chinese. |
| 269 | ** Curry Jars are Indian, although the Indian Subcontinent has a significant Muslim population. |
| 270 | ** Teriyaki Sauces are Japanese. |
| 271 | ** Sauerkraut are German ([[AllGermansAreNazis and Nazis]]). |
| 272 | ** Mexican Food. That should be self explanatory. (and they're also [[TheIllegal Illegal]]). |
| 273 | ** Cider Bottles and Peanuts are [[DeepSouth Southern American.]] |
| 274 | ** Candy is Military. |
| 275 | ** Canadian Beer. Again, self explanatory. |
| 276 | * NeverTrustATrailer: The trailer makes it look as though Frank is brought to Camille's house, where he is exposed to the truth about food. In fact, Frank, Brenda, and other foods are knocked out of Camille's cart while trying to save Honey Mustard and never leave the store; the hot dogs that witness the slaughter are ''Barry and Carl''. |
| 277 | * NightmareFuelColoringBook: The cookbook looks like this to Frank, as it depicts images of humans preparing and eating anthropomorphic food. |
| 278 | * NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: |
| 279 | ** Gum is a rather blatant parody of Creator/StephenHawking. |
| 280 | ** Sammy is based on Creator/WoodyAllen. |
| 281 | * NoEndorHolocaust: The ending [[spoiler:in which the food discover that they are actually cartoons and enter the real world to get revenge on their creators]] effectively cancels the expected ForegoneConclusion that the food is either destroyed by the humans, or that it rots away on the shelves. |
| 282 | * NoodlePeople: Not always in a literal sense; most of the food characters are designed as regular food with the "rubber hose" limbs. |
| 283 | * NonMammalMammaries: The "Glamour Buns" have a very noticeable bosom, even when they're supposed to be living bread. |
| 284 | * NoPeriodsPeriod: A gentle, shy tampon accidentally steps in a pool of red fluid near the end. Absorbing it causes her to bloat, redden, and instantly begin roaring angrily in a deep voice. |
| 285 | * ObliviouslyEvil: Human beings aren't aware of food being sapient as mentioned in AlternateUniverse, so they've no idea how they've been torturing what they consider inanimate. |
| 286 | * OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler:The stoner loses control of Barry in his house and trips on a few things, which leads to an ornamental axe slicing his head off. Barry takes said head with him.]] |
| 287 | * {{Oireland}}: The Irish potato speaks, of course, with a strong Irish accent. Bonus points for his voice actor being Irish. Well, Irish-Canadian to be exact. |
| 288 | * OminousLatinChanting: During Camille's food massacre. |
| 289 | * OneGenderRace: All sausages are male and all hot dog buns are female. |
| 290 | * OurZombiesAreDifferent: Barry encounters a pile of poo with undead corn sticking out of it. They don't attack him though, just groan in misery at him. |
| 291 | * OverlyLongName: Gum has one consisting entirely of his ingredients, but for expediency's sake, you can call him "Gum". |
| 292 | * ParodyAssistance: |
| 293 | ** How better to spoof your typical CGI family comedy than to hire Conrad Vernon, who's [[WesternAnimation/Shrek2 directed]] [[WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens such]] [[WesternAnimation/Madagascar3EuropesMostWanted films]] himself, as one of the co-directors (it helps that [[IWantYouToMeetAnOldFriendOfMine he directed Seth Rogen]] in ''WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens'')? There's also the Music/AlanMenken-penned "The Great Beyond," a send up of exactly the kind of whimsical Disney songs he's made a name for himself with. |
| 294 | ** Creator/BillHader, a longtime friend and collaborator of Rogen's, has been a Creator/{{Disney}} regular since 2013 and has been mostly working on their Creator/{{Pixar}} films. Who better to get to voice [[ActingForTwo three different characters]] in your Pixar parody than someone who's been working for said company! |
| 295 | * PunBasedCreature: The only food items that are treated like animals are horseradish, which act and are ridden on like horses. |
| 296 | * PunctuatedForEmphasis: Carl clearly didn't anticipate the woman to start slaughtering the food. |
| 297 | --> "What. The. ''FUCK?!''" |
| 298 | * PunnyName: |
| 299 | ** The shopper that buys the food is named [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel_toe Camille Toh]]. |
| 300 | ** [[spoiler: Music/MeatLoaf appears as a literal meatloaf]]. |
| 301 | [[/folder]] |
| 302 | |
| 303 | [[folder:R-Y]] |
| 304 | * RageAgainstTheHeavens: The movie ends with them [[spoiler: going after the creators of the film.]] |
| 305 | * RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Douche [[spoiler: drinking the busted juice box through its "crotch" is framed to look like cunnilingus]], but despite the absurdity, it's ''not'' played [[BlackComedyRape as a joke]]. |
| 306 | ** Likewise, a used condom Barry encounters in the gutters is traumatized to insanity by what happened to it. |
| 307 | * ReactiveContinuousScream: Happens between Barry and Druggie when the latter sees the former for the first time. |
| 308 | * RecycledAnimation: The opening shot of Darren yawning and unlocking the doors in the morning is reused in the second singing of "The Great Beyond". |
| 309 | * RogerRabbitEffect: The final scene involves [[spoiler:the characters teleporting to the real world and revolting against the actors who portray them.]] |
| 310 | * RRatedOpening: The ''very first word'' of the whole movie is "shit", which is then followed by one of the biggest [[CrossesTheLineTwice line crossing]] musical numbers in animation cinema. |
| 311 | * RubberHoseLimbs: The sausages, and a lot of the other foods, have these. |
| 312 | * SapientEatSapient: The whole premise of the movie is a world where our food is sapient. |
| 313 | * ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Two baby carrots attempt to escape the woman's food onslaught by jumping off the counter. It doesn't go too well for them. |
| 314 | * SelfDeprecation: At the end when [[spoiler:the food learn that they are cartoons, Firewater takes a jab at Seth Rogen, calling him a "demented schlubby Jewish actor", while Sammy asks who would give a child the "stupid cunt name" of Edward Norton, which he pronounces as Ed-Ward Nor-Ton.]] |
| 315 | * SexMontage: Near the end of the movie, there is [[spoiler:an extended orgy scene between the main gang...and between all the other foods in the store. ''Tons'' of innuendos ensue.]] |
| 316 | * ShaggyDogStory: The foods that manage to survive the cart collision (which kills several foods as well as separates Frank and Brenda from their friends) have to get eaten by the Humans. |
| 317 | * ShownTheirWork: |
| 318 | ** Gum's incredibly long name is in fact a list of the ingredients in gum. |
| 319 | ** When the Mexican foods hang a human and use it as a piñata, they actually sing the traditional song used when breaking piñatas. |
| 320 | * SlasherSmile: [[https://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/villains/images/8/83/Screen_Shot_2016-10-30_at_3.26.45_PM.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20161030203003 Douche has one of these while choking Frank.]] |
| 321 | * SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism: Quite debatable actually. The movie actually portrays a somewhat nihilistic edge to its whole social satire aspect and yet portrays sort of the idealistic spirit, heart, and emotion of a Pixar film. |
| 322 | * SodaCandySplosion: During the [[spoiler:battle between the drug-high humans and food, one man is killed by having Diet Coke and Mentos force-fed to him, causing his head to explode.]] |
| 323 | * SoulSuckingRetailJob: The utter apathy of the human employees of the supermarket (one even loudly complaining how much he hates his job) points to this. |
| 324 | * SouthOfTheBorder: The Mexican food aisle, which has a cantina and is populated with tequila bottles, tortillas, chips, salsas and taco shells. Lampshaded by Sammy: |
| 325 | --->'''Sammy:''' This has a nice south-to-the-border vibe. |
| 326 | * SophisticatedAsHell: Firewater, whose speech pattern was described by Creator/BillHader as somewhere between a stereotypical Native American, Johnny Carson and a teenage girl. |
| 327 | * SpeciesSurname: Frank's main squeeze is a bun named Brenda Bunson and their three companions on the trip back to their aisles are Sammy Bagel, Jr., Teresa del Taco, and Lavash.[[note]]whose full name, by the way, is Kareem Abdul Lavash[[/note]] |
| 328 | * SugarApocalypse: The shopping cart collision and the food massacre certainly qualify as this, as we see cutesy cartoon characters being mercilessly and graphically killed. |
| 329 | * StalactiteSpite: Kitchen knives in the Dark Aisle, after Frank knocks over a carousel of them. |
| 330 | * StealthPun: The [[spoiler:orgy that concludes the film]]. It's [[spoiler:food porn]]! |
| 331 | ** The sauerkraut is a parody of Hitler, literally a "sour kraut". |
| 332 | ** The nuts are prejudiced against fruit because "God hates figs." They're religious nuts! |
| 333 | ** Possibly a coincidence, but Douche does become a literal [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Cernovich Juice Bro]] during the film. He definitely seems like he’d be down with the whole Gamer Gate/manosphere phenomenon, like a certain other JuiceBro we know. |
| 334 | * StockScream: The all famous Wilhelm Scream is heard a few times in the film. |
| 335 | * StonersAreFunny: How Barry figures out how to defeat the humans. See "HigherUnderstandingThroughDrugs." Unfortunately, said stoner [[spoiler:[[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness outlives his usefulness once he sobers up]] and can't communicate with the food any more]]. |
| 336 | * StraightGay: |
| 337 | ** [[spoiler:Sammy and Lavash]] end up becoming a couple and demonstrate no gay stereotypes whatsoever. |
| 338 | ** [[spoiler: Firewater]] is revealed to be in a relationship with [[spoiler: Twink]], though he's based on [[spoiler: Native Americans]] instead of gay stereotypes. In the latter's case, he's more stereotypical, though he's more of a TokenGoodTeammate than a parody of homosexuals. |
| 339 | * StupidestThingIveEverHeard: When Frank suggests that [[UsefulNotes/ArabIsraeliConflict Sammy and Lavash could share their aisle]], both burst out laughing at the idea. |
| 340 | * StylisticSelfParody: The Creator/AlanMenken-penned "The Great Beyond" is a sound-alike of "Belle", Menken's opening song from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast''. |
| 341 | * TakeThat: |
| 342 | ** The entire film is intended as a giant middle finger not so much to computer animated films of the 21st century, but [[AnimationAgeGhetto the mindset that they can only be for children]]. |
| 343 | ** During Firewater's flashback, a peanut is seen holding a sign reading "The Gods Hate Figs," playing off the infamous Westboro Baptist Church's own "God Hates Fags" picket signs. |
| 344 | * TeenyWeenie: Barry takes this trope [[ExaggeratedTrope to exaggeration]] since he ''literally'' is this trope. |
| 345 | %% * TemptingFate: The entire opening song. |
| 346 | * TertiarySexualCharacteristics: The feminine Glamour Buns have [[NonMammalMammaries breasts]] and makeup. |
| 347 | * TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou: [[spoiler:After killing the "gods" in the climactic fight and orgy, they discover they are a cartoon created for entertainment and waste no time in building a portal to our world.]] |
| 348 | * ThisIsGonnaSuck: Gum's reaction to Druggie sobering up. |
| 349 | -->'''Gum''': We are totally fucked. |
| 350 | * TitleDrop: Played with and probably parodied by Frank’s line in the climax: “Sausages and buns, let’s party!” |
| 351 | * TomeOfEldritchLore: [[spoiler:The cookbook, whose illustrations of foods being cooked and eaten are presented with all the same horror as the grisly artwork inside the Necronomicon, hence Twink warning him "once you see that shit, it will fuck you up for life". Frank tears pages out of the book to show to the rest of the store in order to get them to believe him]]. |
| 352 | * ToServeMan: This is how Frank finds out about what [[EatenAlive really happens in "The Great Beyond".]] |
| 353 | * TrailersAlwaysSpoil: It's a major plot point that the food are conditioned to believe they're chosen by humans to enter "their destiny", which is actually [[DeadlyEuphemism being eaten]]. Unfortunately, the trailer spoils this very point, and because it's the whole point of the story, it's safe to say that this twist will happen at most at about ten to twenty minutes into the movie. Also, naturally a ForegoneConclusion in that most people will already know what we do to food... |
| 354 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: What was the cataclyst for the food finding out [[spoiler:the truth about The Great Beyond]]? A guy buying the wrong kind of mustard. |
| 355 | * VictorySex: [[spoiler:After the food kills all the humans, they celebrate with the infamous computer animated extended bisexual food orgy.]] |
| 356 | * ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: Brenda -- [[spoiler: near the end of the movie, an enraged woman tries to strangle Frank, Brenda comes to the rescue and ''smashes said woman's head against the ground, killing her instantly'']]. |
| 357 | * VisualPun: |
| 358 | ** Teresa is a lesbian taco. "Pink taco" is a slang term for the female genitalia. |
| 359 | ** The heroes riding into battle astride galloping bottles of ''horse''radish. |
| 360 | * VomitDiscretionShot: During's Carl's LargeHam moment when the woman eats the baby carrots, some of the sausages puke off-screen in horror. |
| 361 | * WhamShot: The woman peeling the skin of a potato off, causing the foods to realize the truth about their human "saviors". |
| 362 | * WhatTheHellHero: [[spoiler:Barry]] gives this speech to [[spoiler:Frank]] after [[spoiler: he insulted everyone for not believing him about "The Great Beyond"]]. |
| 363 | * WorldOfJerkass: Almost every character is either a foul-mouthed jerk, an offensive stereotype, or a mixture of both. |
| 364 | * WouldHurtAChild: From the perspective of the foods, humans eating "baby carrots" counts as this. |
| 365 | * YourHeadAsplode: [[spoiler: One of the humans in the supermarket gets held down and force-fed cola and mints, causing his head to explode.]] |
| 366 | * YourMakeupIsRunning: As she parts ways with Teresa, Brenda wipes a tear from her eye, causing her makeup to smudge. |
