Remember an episode a while back when some big corporation rescued the school by sponsoring lessons? Well it seems to be happening here:

"If you have two cheeseburgers and add three cheeseburgers, what have you got?"

[Can anyone find that episode? I can't think of the right keywords to search snpp with.]

Then, there is this from "Lisa Gets an A":

Skinner: We can buy =real= periodic tables instead of these
promotional ones from Oscar Meyer.
Krabappel:     Who can tell me the atomic weight of bolognium?
Martin:        Ooh ... delicious?
Krabappel:     Correct.  I would also accept snacktacular.

There's also the "Pepsi Presents Arithmetic" scene from "Lisa's Wedding:"

Troy McClure: Now turn to the next problem. If you have three Pepsis and drink one, how much more refreshed are you? You, the redhead in the Chicago school system? Girl: Pepsi? Troy: Partial credit!
