The “food coma” was just them being blackout drunk

Oh yeah. Wings and soda are the stand-ins in this show.

Cartoon Network wouldn’t let Jg put alcohol in the show so he used something else that people eat during social hangouts as a loophole.

Yes. The majority of the episode was him denying he has an issue. There is a full video on YouTube discussing Benson's addiction to wings

Here it is:

Wings are JG Quintel's answer to CN not allowing him to depict alcohol

u/Doctor_Salvatore 1d ago

Wings and sodas were the substitutions for alcohol as CN forbade the creator from depicting actual alcohol.

Hot sauce/peppers are implied to have an addictive quality in this show, and perhaps even psychedelic in the case of the Mississippi Queen

It was all Benson's fault

I don't get people saying wings represent alcohol. Soda is the most accurate resemblance to that (literally shotgunning it, crushing it on head etc...). The way they interact with soda is the same as how party goers act with a can of beer.

So wtf is wings suppose to represent? Just a food version? 

Obviously peppers represented acid

u/migsa97 1d ago

I always thought that soda represents beer and wings represent shots or hard liquor.
