The episode was inspired by commercials for the Christian Children's Fund shown at the time. Its spokeswoman Sally Struthers encourages viewers to donate money for starving children in Africa. Trey found the idea of an obese woman making a public plea for food for others ironic. He was also inspired by the idea of a starving African child's reaction to a large self-indulgent buffet dinner in America.
