{A cartoon cloud wearing a medal labeled "O2" enters from the upper right while a turkey and a spear of broccoli are "puffed" by the bellows into marshmallow shapes.}
Air puffing is surely the future of eating delicious foodstuffs.
{cut to a fat, rich-looking man at a desk smiling and snapping his suspenders}
Mr. Bossman wouldn't settle for much less!

Easter Eggs
- At the end, click on "Air-Puffed Sugar Delights" to see a short video.
- {Sickly Sam is standing next to a bag of Delicious "Bag".}
- SICKLY SAM: This empty bag of Delicious "Bag" will make a fine sock for the colder of my two feet.
- {Sickly Sam shakes his left foot. The Sneak runs up, tears up the bag, and runs away}
- SICKLY SAM: Well, folks, you know what that means. {disappears in a puff of smoke}
Fun Facts
Explanations
- A "Sugar Shack" is a structure where maple sap is converted into maple syrup.
- "O2" is the chemical formula for molecular oxygen, which comprises about 21 percent of normal air.
Trivia
- The sound effect used for the hovering jet packs and the "tip-toeing" Mr. Shmallow is the same one used when Homsar walks.
- Mr. Bossman's bowler hat and cigar debuted in Meet Marshie, where they were used to decorate a plate of Fluffy Puff Marshmallows being served for "Pinner."
- In inbox and outbox on Mr. Bossman's desk read "Fired" and "To Be Fired." The "Fired" stack is larger.
Inside References
- This Cartoon is roughly equivalent to Meet Marshie where Marshie talks about how Fluffy Puff Marshmallows are made and what you can do with them. It even includes a comment from the Homestar Runner at the end, echoing Homestar's appearance at the end of Meet Marshie.
- Sickly Sam says "Well folks, you know what that means..." this may be a reference to The Homestar Runner's saying "Well folks, you know what that means, now i'll do a dance."
