Sneed's Feed & Seed (formerly Chuck's) is a subtle meta joke about the tendency of certain cartoons to include little wordplay-centric background gags in store signs and the like. Most viewers would immediately clock the store's name as following a contrived rhyme, but the "formerly Chuck's" throws a wrench in the works, as viewers acknowledge that "Chuck's Feed and Seed" does not adhere to said rhyme. One is invited to ponder the possibility that Chuck handed store ownership to Sneed (whether this was only in name is unclear) solely for the sake of a silly rhyme, suggesting a meta self-awareness on their part about their existence as cartoon characters that exist for the sake of a background joke.
