VIDEO
“Don’t Eat The Yellow Snow ,” (1974) written and performed by Frank Zappa , animated by N.J. Verburgt. This track combines a second song, “Nanook Rubs It,” a commentary on the fur industry .
Note: In the real world, don’t call Inuit people “Eskimos,” don’t look for penguins in the Arctic, and don’t eat snow , period. Do enjoy the humor of these animated songs, though.
