Fast food, glorious food.

The underused character of Mr. Kramer (Jack Somack) gets his best episode when his falafel stand allegedly gives Brad (Ron Silver) food poisoning which gets Susan (Stockard Channing) in trouble with her landlord. She seeks to prove that Brad actually got sick from his regular health fast food restaurant which has been taken over by a weirdo named Alf. She disguises herself as an aging hippy and is absolutely hysterical. Then there's the volunteers chosen to sample various types of fast food, another very funny segment. Lots of visual humor and a friendly little giggle at the expense of health food addicts like the one played by Ron Silver.
