I was chatting with a friend over the weekend and I forget how we landed on the subject of muffins, but we both agreed that the top of a muffin is the best part. I don't know about you, but I totally leave the top for last (large glass of cold milk also required). Naturally, I had to share the above clip with him. (Side Note: Seinfeld is my absolute favorite show of all time and I can quote lines like it's my job. I know, I know...fascinating.) Anyway, I was at a meeting yesterday morning and I noticed someone was having a muffin top. No, not like a 'Muffie' from Panera Bread (yes, that's what they are called), but a top completely torn off of its base. It was the first time that I have ever witnessed such a bold move and I complimented them on doing so. Elaine Benes would have been proud.
This brings me to my current favorite show, 30 Rock - starring the amazing (and Greek!) Tina Fey and the hilarious Alec Baldwin - and their take on 'Muffin Tops'. If you've never watched the show, you're missing out. The writing is witty and totally genius. I even have the ever so catchy opening theme song as my ringtone.
Without further ado...30 Rock's Muffin Top song as sung by Jane Krakowski who plays Jenna Maroney:
Since we're on the subject (last one, I promise), here's a Life Savers commercial that deals with 'Muffin Tops':
