"Snacktime" guest callers


The first song in the Canadian Snacktime Trilogy, entitled "Snacktime", features numerous guest callers stating their favourite snack. Some of these callers are celebrities while others are children of the band. Some of the celebrities[5] and children with their respective snacks of choice are listed below, in order of appearance.

The trilogy concept is influenced by the song "Canadian Railroad Trilogy" (1966) by Canadian singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot.
