we now have a new sighting from ohio, including some quotes!
"I remember seeing this commercial when I lived in Ohio, around 1999 or 2000. The bridal shower phrase was, "What's wrong with pigs in a blanket?" Another version took place on a commercial plane and the flight attendant said, "C'mon, try the snack mix." I only recall seeing these late at night and possibly on Comedy Central. I have tried to find a reference to them over the years, but no luck."
hopefully we have better luck with the search now that we know what was being said in the commercials, more information on the plane variant, and the fact that the baby shower commercial might actually be a bridal shower commercial!
NEW INFO FROM THE SOURCE: It could have been a baby shower. It was a group of casually dressed middle-class young ladies celebrating something in a home. A woman, presumably the host, walks in to the living room offering something on a tray. One woman politely declines. This is when the host's face changes to the demon and she says, "What's wrong with pigs in a blanket?" It was quite startling.
Back then, when I described these commercials to my wife (who though I was hallucinating), I not once considered them to be a skit. There was a mention of the product at the end, but it is odd that nobody can seem to remember what that product was. I remember it being a new brand of protein bar I was not familiar with.

This is huge!!! Hopefully we are near the end of the search. This has still been living in my head rent free.
