The next morning they've recovered enough to go back to their old dietary habits.

Lisa sings the song and makes it into the final competition. Continue...
The Simpsons, which recently aired its 350th episode, is also a stylized representation of reality. It does not look in any way like reality, and yet we accept that in some way it is a comment (in this case, a satirical comment) on a real world. If it didn't have any bearing at all on a world we know, we wouldn't watch it. Watching The Simpsons, one notices right away that every human character has three fingers and a thumb on each hand. And one immediately accepts that in this reality, people have four fingers -- just as in the reality of opera, people sing poetry instead of speaking. They are still people. Somehow, even cardboard cutouts in puppet shows can come to represent people, and we will follow their silly stories with interest.
