The Simpsons will edit jokes out every now and again. For instance, in the episode where Marge gets sugar criminalized the cops throw a Butterfinger into a bonfire, it spits it back, and Wiggum says, "Even the fire won't eat 'em,". In subsequent airings that scene is missing and several episodes later Bart writes, "I Will Not Bite The Hand That Feeds" on the chalkboard, because he is Butterfingers' official spokesperson.

*****  That's funny.  Another one that comes to mind is when Bart had head lice he thinks back to him and Milhouse playing with a monkey.  Milhouse originally said "We got the basket at Pier 1 and the monkey was passed out inside."  The episode was edited to "We got the basket at Trader Pete's and the monkey was passed out inside."  As far as I know, "Trader Pete's" is a fictional store.  Pier 1 is probably another thin-skinned sponsor.  Like the kind of people who shop at Pier 1 are really going to believe that ebola monkies are hiding in the furniture.  Jeez.
