Issue: My Little Pony Summer Special, 1986

Story Title: Sweetie and the Wrong Recipe

Summary: The ponies’ useless friend, Magician Muddle, accidentally sends them to a faraway land … where they get enslaved by the Ice Cream Witch. WHOOPS!

Comments: It seems particularly harsh having poor Sweetie as the lead, as she was enslaved in her origin story too–having been kept underground so long she went blind until Applejack rescued her.

On a different note, Sweetie was named “Sweet Stuff” in the US.

Glorious Quotes: “Look, there’s a whole family like her. They wear ice cream, eat it, and make houses from it.”
