Snack Homiez: Sabrina Carpenter’s Hilarious SNL Return & Celebrity Guests
Sabrina Carpenter can’t seem to get enough of snacking with her homies! This weekend, the pop star delivered a delightful surprise during Saturday Night Live’s first episode of 2026, reprising her role in the wildly popular “Snack Homiez” podcast sketch. The sketch features Carpenter as one of four 12-/13-year-old boys hosting a podcast dedicated to… well, snacks!
The original “Snack Homiez” sketch debuted earlier this season during Carpenter’s first hosting and musical guest appearance on SNL. This time around, Carpenter’s character, Tayson, was joined by Chloe Fineman as Braylor, Jane Wickline as Kyler, and Veronika Slowikowska as Jason. The foursome engaged in a spirited debate about their favorite Halloween candies (and, surprisingly, vegetables!).
Star-Studded Guests
The fun didn’t stop there! This iteration of “Snack Homiez” welcomed a trio of high-profile guests: Finn Wolfhard (known for his role in Stranger Things), a self-described “looks-maxxing gigachad” Twitch streamer, and A$AP Rocky, who cleverly promoted his own line of Rap Snacks. Adding to the comedic chaos, the group also hosted a special guest: President Donald Trump, brilliantly portrayed by James Austin Johnson.
Carpenter’s unexpected encore performance as Tayson marked her fourth appearance on SNL in less than two years. She initially graced the stage as a musical guest in May 2024, then playfully “crashed” Quinta Brunson’s monologue in May 2025. Her October 18th appearance saw her pulling double duty as both host and musical guest. Carpenter also participated in the celebratory SNL50: The Anniversary Special, where she shared a memorable duet of Simon & Garfunkel’s “Homeward Bound” with Paul Simon.
The Viral Appeal of Snack Homiez
The “Snack Homiez” sketch has quickly become a fan favorite, resonating with audiences due to its relatable premise and the cast’s impeccable comedic timing. The sketch’s success highlights SNL’s ability to tap into current internet culture and create viral moments. You can find clips and discussions about the sketch on platforms like YouTube and Twitter.
The enduring popularity of “Snack Homiez” proves that sometimes, the simplest concepts – like a group of friends talking about snacks – can deliver the biggest laughs.
