For me, it’s got to be the moment in “Ratatouille” when the critic Anton Ego takes a bite of Remy’s dish. The way it transported him back to his childhood was so powerful and beautifully animated. It not only conveyed the magic of food but also how certain dishes can evoke deep-seated memories and emotions.

Not a movie, but a Kids in the Hall clip. I love sausages. Guess what the name of the skit is called.
