Huh? Come again?

I drove by a road-side billboard recently that just had my puzzled. It's an ad for Snickers candybars, which reads:

"Take a sabbatical to
Feedgypt"

With the "Feedgypt" in the same print as the normal Snickers logo. I'm sure there's a simple explanation, no?

Ah, thanks! At least it's meant to be nonsensical :)

I need a hungerectomy.

"Hungerectomy" is way too close to hysterectomy. Fail.
