"Yummy Yummy Yummy" is a bubblegum pop song by Arthur Resnick and Joey Levine, first recorded by Ohio Express in 1968. Their version reached #4 in the U.S. Pop Singles chart in June and #5 in the UK Singles Chart. It has since been covered by many artists. Ohio Express was a studio concoction and none of the "official" members appear on the record. Joey Levine sang lead vocals.
Joey Levine sang "Yummy Yummy Yummy" live for the first time ever in Henderson, Tennessee at the Caravan Of Stars XV, on May 17, 2008.
In the years since it was a hit, the song has become a standard. In Time Magazine's 2011 list of top 10 songs with silly lyrics it ranked #8. It ranked #2 in Dave Barry's Book of Bad Songs. It has been used in a commercial for Kinder chocolate, in a food-themed scene in the television show The Simpsons, in Monty Python's Flying Circus in episode How Not to Be Seen, and in "Last McSupper" scene of the film Super Size Me.
