Stomach oil is the light oil composed of neutral dietary lipid s found in the proventriculus fore gut of birds in the order biology order Procellariiformes . All albatross es, Procellariidae procellarids gadfly petrels and shearwaters and storm petrel s use the oil. The only Procellariiformes that do not are the diving petrel s. The chemical make up of stomach oil varies from species to species and between individuals, but almost always contains both wax ester s and triglyceride s. Other compounds found in stomach oil include glycerol ether s, pristane and squalene . Stomach oil has low viscosity and will solidify into a hard wax if allowed to cool. It was once thought that stomach oil was a secretion of the proventriculus, but it is now known to be a residue of the diet created by digestion of the prey items such as krill , squid , copepod s and fish . It is thought to serve several functions for Procellariiformes , primarily as an energy store its calorie calorific value is around 9.6 calorie kcal per gram, which is only slightly lower than the value for Diesel fuel diesel oil. For this reason a great deal more energy can be stored in oil form as opposed to undigested prey. This can be a real advantage for species that range over huge distances to provide food for hungry chicks, or as a store for lean times when ranging across the sea looking for patchy areas of prey. Surface nesting petrel s and albatross can eject this oil out of their mouths not nostrils, as has sometimes been suggested towards attacking predators or conspecific rivals.

As the Stomach Turns was a parody of soap opera s, most notably a play on the title of a very popular soap at the time, As the World Turns , and was featured on The Carol Burnett Show . The vignette s premise was to describe, in great detail, the problems of a thirtyish woman named Marion played by Carol Burnett , who lived in the town of Canoga Falls. The vignette dealt with problems that were more likely to be seen on a soap opera than in real life. For example, Marion s niece Raven played by Bernadette Peters in a guest spot came to visit her and was possessed by the devil, Marion assumed, because Raven was such a nice girl normally. The town exterminator freelance exorcist played by Tim Conway , using the same faux Swedish dialect that he would use to play character Mr. Tudball was forced to exorcise the demon from her body, a story that was eventually done, in all seriousness, on Days of our Lives decades later. The vignette also touched on stereotypical aspects of production values in American soaps. Many times, Marion forgot what she wanted to say, reminiscent of the times when soap operas were broadcast live and actors routinely forgot their next line. Marion also answered the door either too soon or too late when someone rang her doorbell. Other times, she would miss the correct time to answer the phone, saying Hello before the sound effect came for it to ring. On live soap opera productions, these were big problems due to the live nature of the show, they happened fairly frequently, and were subsequently spoofed at length on The Carol Burnett Show .
