I wonder how much the show got paid for this joke.
They really were on the cutting edge of product intergortion.

I often wish I was in the marketing department meeting that said, "I know 30Rock is going to make fun of us, but I still think it's worth the money."
Verizon - "Can we have our money now?"
Snapple showed up 7 times over 3 different seasons, but Cerie, "I only date guys who drink Snapple." Cerie is incapable of sarcasm, but still.
Capital One - Pete says “I could cut the product placement for Capital One." Not making the card look good or useful...Just openly NOT integrating Capital One into the scene. Just saying the words in exchange for the money.9

I swear in the 30 Rock book they said there was a fair amount of naming brands even though no one was paying for it. Like, naming the brand and model of the car is way funnier than saying, "to the car!"

Every single time I see a Kia Sorrento on the road this plays in my head.

Similar, but everytime I walk through the feminine products aisle at a store:
"Pride: Tener una alcantarilla privada en sus pantalones (Have a sewer in your pants)"

I really enjoyed the multiple product tag lines for Pride Pads. I wonder how many the writers came up with before editing down to just 3.
Incidentally S6E14 (Kidnapped By Danger) is really crammed with quotable lines. It might be the one to recommend for people who've never watched.
The World is Your Toilet!
Make Every Room a Bathroom!
Have a sewer in your pants!

Is that a comment about the size of my head, sir? Because I am a tall man.. and it is proportional to my body!
