It looks like Sara Lee Bread can take a joke.
The baking company has responded to the hilarious, yet very raunchy “Saturday Night Live” skit, which featured Harry Styles as a social media manager who ran the brand’s Instagram account.
In the sketch, above, Styles starred as a guy named Dylan who found himself in trouble at work with his bosses, played by Cecily Strong and Bowen Yan, after he was accidentally mixing up the Sara Lee Instagram account with his personal one. For example, Dylan had commented on a photo of Nick Jonas with some very NSFW comments, including “wreck me daddy” and “destroy me king.”
Dylan also wrote some off-brand captions for some of Sara Lee’s photos. For a photo of a grilled cheese, he wrote, “Feeling really depressed after threesome. What was supposed to be a fantasy ended up more rejection. Must get rid of toxic in community.”
Styles’ character also admitted to sending Shawn Mendes a direct message, where he offered a “special holiday promotion,” which was “a picture of my open throat.”
The funny skit was popular with “SNL” viewers as fans quickly got the hashtag #SaraLee trending on Twitter. However, the aftereffect didn’t stop there. People took to the real Sara Lee Instagram account and commented with some saucy remarks of their own.
Check out some of the comments in the tweet below.

Fortunately, Sara Lee didn’t seem to be too concerned with the skit and its aftermath.
“We didn’t participate in creating the skit and its content doesn’t align with Sara Lee Bread’s brand,” Bimbo Bakeries USA (Sara Lee’s parent company) said in a statement to the NY Post.
They continued, “But, we all know SNL pushes the envelope for laughs and we are taking it in stride.”
