A rotating mix of food slogans, depending on the situation, though they never make sense. “I’m lovin’ it”, “the snack that smiles back”, “when you’re here, you’re family”, “betcha can’t eat just one”, “behold the power of cheese”, “*Taco Bell bell sound*”, etc…
MEL never discusses eating, EVER. Just sometimes stuff on set will appear to have bite marks in it. Instead he alternates between correcting people’s Shakespeare attributions and trying to unravel comical misunderstandings with what Dickie Shakespeare, Impulse 2 said.
Not so much a catch phrase, but a bit where he pulls out a 30th century phone app that gives him the macros for whatever he’s about to eat. Then he hems and haws over how much of whatever it is he’s going to allow himself to finish.
Dunno, but get me in the room for the Halloween special where he goes dressed as The Tick so we have an excuse to make it “Spoooon!” when him and all the kids in the neighborhood save the town from a Sucrose beast with the power of Halloween candy gorging. I have some ideas.

"I'm gonna eat it!"

“No please I’m serious.”
“Oh you lad, something eating you?”
*more laughter*

Also, he’d have a funny way of dabbing his mouth with a napkin when he was done.

Wait... I think that one might already be taken.
He would use it when someone else suggests eating something ridiculous (he would then eat the ridiculous thing)
He would also use it when revealing his talents as a [furiously browses wiki] chef/prosecutor/politician/whatever
*laugh track*
Also he’s now Steve Brule.
