Bernie Sanders, Jimmy Fallon, chicken noodle soup.

The Tonight Show had all three in a sketch uploaded Feb. 19, the day the Vermont senator officially announced he is running for president in 2020.

Fallon did an impersonation of Sanders, with jokes mainly revolving around the senator's age. About halfway through the sketch, the talk show host gave a shoutout to a dish found at one eatery in Burlington, where Sanders served as mayor during the 1980s.

"I am literally 90 percent chicken noodle from Kountry Kart Deli in Burlington, Vermont."

"I mean the boss was extremely excited," Sarah Brochu, the manager at the deli, said, adding the mention came out of the blue.

Most people in the eatery around 7:45 a.m. on Feb. 21 were regulars. Brochu showed the sketch on her phone to two customers, who enjoyed the reference to the shop.

Kountry Kart Deli owner reacts to Fallon shoutout

"Being shouted out on the Fallon show was just really a treat," Kountry Kart owner Mike Williams said.

Williams started his operations with a cart on Church Street in 1989 and moved to the deli's current location on Main Street in 1992. The shop only closes for 3.5 hours every night — from 3 a.m. to 6:30 a.m — serving both early-risers and the after-club crowd.

The deli is not a sit-down spot. People can order ahead or in person and walk out with their food a few minutes later.

Menu items at Kountry Kart include sandwiches, hot dogs, wraps, salads and vegetarian options. Some of the deli's most popular items are its Shiners, a breakfast sandwich of egg, cheese, hashbrown and your choice of meat on a bulky roll, served all day.

Trump sandwich

The shop has made the news before: In early 2016, the deli offered a sandwich dedicated to Donald Trump, who was then seeking the Republican nomination and planning a rally at Burlington's Flynn Center for the Performing Arts — the deli's next-door neighbor.

"The Donald" contained B.S. (bacon slices) and was priced at $20.16.

Still, Williams said the Fallon bit tops the rest.

A friend in North Carolina texted Williams to let him know about the shoutout. The owner isn't sure if the attention will lead to any spike or change in business.

But he'll make sure chicken noodle soup is available, just in case.

Jimmy Fallon's Bernie Sanders impersonation

This isn't the first time the former-Saturday Night Live comedian poked fun at Bernie Sanders. In addition to hosting the senator on his show, Fallon showed off his impersonation chops in early 2016, the last time Sanders was seeking the Democratic nomination.

Upon the announcement of Sanders 2020 presidential run, Fallon put the white hair back on and brought his Brooklyn accent back. Some viewers in the video's comment section felt Fallon unfairly focused on the senator's age.

"Dozens of my fellow Democrats have already announced that they are running," Fallon said. "But I am asking you to support me. I have the most experience. Literally, I am older than all 20 of them combined."
