Title says it all. Best “mmmm”-ism out of Homer’s mouth, in or out of context. My vote: “mmmmmmmmm…sweet candy” ---

I guess I’m an mmm purist. I don’t like the jokey ones like “mmm - sacrelicious” or “mmm - floor pie”. My favorite, because of the sublime, ecstatic delivery, is: _Mmm - barbecue!_ Honorable mention to the one where Homer was naming famous chief justices, but got stuck on Warren Burger because, _Mmm - burger!_ ---

My favorite is from when Homer and Mr. Burns are golfing, and Homer is trying to get out of the sand, and Mr. Burns tells him, “Use an open faced club; the sand wedge!” Homer: “Mmm… open-faced club sand wedge.” ---
