From the simpsons episode 5F11:

Nelson: Mmm, all that slime made the boar extra tender!

Martin: More snout anyone?

Bart: How's your dinner, Lis!

Lisa: Ah, shut up... savages...

Narrator (JEJ): So the children learned how to function as a society, and eventually they were rescued by, oh, let's say.. Moe.
