This is a 1996 sing-along VHS tape created by regional grocery store chain, Piggly Wiggly's "Piggly Pals Studio."
A teacher starts things out by attempting to educate a bunch of 10-year-old preschoolers about nutrition. While, at first, this seems strange, their inclusion in the remedial class is soon justified by asinine responses to their teacher's simple, food-oriented question. None of the kids can properly identify even a single food group, but responses like "bubble gum" and "pickles" serve to illustrate that the two boys are a few steps behind either of their female classmates. Fortunately, the interaction garners the attention of "Inspector Quigley" and a giant grocery store mascot pig. The pair are bound and determined to tackle the seemingly insurmountable task of teaching the feeble kids their food groups.
For some reason, Quigley and his pig figure that the only viable means of educating the youngsters is to literally kidnap them. The irresponsible teacher is perfectly fine with this arrangement, and sends her pupils off with the strange duo, just as long as they agree to return the kids "before spelling," a timeframe that is never clarified and likely not adhered to.
The kids end up witnessing the performance of seven different, food-oriented songs, many of which they actually participate in, showcasing their stunning improvisational capabilities. The songs, in order are:
1. "Super Duper Supermarket Day"
2. "Fruit Fiesta"
3. "Vegetables"
4. "I'm Makin' a Baker's Dozen"
5. "Yum Yum Eat 'Em Up"
6. "Meet The Meats"
7. "The Deep Freeze"
Upon the conclusion of the impromptu concert, the flying ship whisks the kids away, although it's unclear if they were ever returned back to their classroom.
