Plot

Two sisters, Serretta and LouAnne Burr, are lunch ladies working in a high school called Melvin High. Both are unsatisfied with their job and cook terrible food. Both sisters are fans of the actor Johnny Depp and are hired by him to be his personal chefs after winning a cooking contest. The principal threatens to fire both women if they do not get better at cooking, much to the aggravation of Serretta. Serretta's Johnny Depp t-shirt gets ruined by potatoes after she kicks a container. Furious, Serretta goes to the lady's room to clean off her shirt. After a cheerleader named Alexsis insults Seretta, Serretta suffocates her to death with a plunger. Fearing jail, Seretta and LouAnne decide to bake the flesh of the corpse into meat pies, taking inspiration from the Tim Burton film Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. They then give the meat pies to the students and staff who eat them, unknowingly committing cannibalism. The film ends with selfies and videos of Serretta and LouAnne in Hollywood, California.
