THE STUDIO — Ready to have the same song stuck in your head for the rest of the day?
Good, because "Start the Par-dee" is about to be embedded in your brain for the remainder of your mortal existence and possibly beyond.
Chef Boyardee is celebrating its 90th anniversary, but when was the last time you saw a Chef Boyardee commercial? Been a while, right? According to the site AdAge, Conagra Brands, the parent company of Chef Boyardee, hasn't spent money on marketing the chef for about five years. But that's all changed now that the beefy and cheesy stuff is about to turn 90.
So what do you do when you haven't done any marketing for half a decade? Hire Lil Yachty and Donny Osmond to sing about the goodness of Chef Boyardee, of course.

Have You Seen This? Ants build bridge to invade wasp nest
Today is your lucky day because today is the day you get to watch a video of thousands of army ants that built a bridge made of ants so they could all invade their enemy's house.The video is bizarre and seems to be a living oxymoron, but somehow it's also glorious and wonderful. It is sure to be the most bizarre two minutes and 50 seconds of your day, but the lines like, "mama can we go to the store?" and "we like tomatoes, more beef and cheese" are going to be bouncing around your head long after you've heard them rapped and sung from Lil Yachty and Donny.
Also, another little nugget of goodness from this video is that Donny actually raps. The fact that it almost seems like he and Lil Yachty are now buddies and play on a badminton doubles team on the weekends is great too.
Watch the video, get some Chef Boyardee and then desperately try to get this tune out of your head.
