Michael Che Claims He Almost Quit ‘SNL’ Over Joke About Salsa
Michael Che is known for pretty off-the-wall comedy moments alongside Colin Jost during their Weekend Update segments on Saturday Night Live, but it turns out one particular crack—about chips and dip, of all things—almost sent him over the edge.
Che recalled the joke during an appearance this week on SNL alums Dana Carvey and David Spade’s podcast Fly on the Wall, when asked if there was any particular punchline that didn’t sit well with him.
“I think jalapeño business... I was pretty furious about that one,” Che said.
