Along Came Daffy is a 7-minute Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon from 1947. It was directed by Friz Freleng and written by Michael Maltese and Tedd Pierce, with Daffy Duck and Yosemite Sam in the starring roles.

In the story, Sam, his black-haired twin, and a very thin mouse are snowbound in a cabin with no food. They start to hallucinate, seeing each other as a roast turkey and a Dagwood sandwich. A door-to-door cookbooks salesman named Daffy Duck arrives. The famished trio chase him, catch him, and plan to cook him in the oven. To save himself, Daffy offers a complimentary six‑course turkey dinner from his sample case and runs off. But just as Sam and his brother are about to eat, a swarm of mice pops out of the walls and devours the feast. Daffy returns later with after-dinner mints. The hungry brothers grab him again, slam the door, and Daffy calls to the audience, “Well, here we go again!”

The cartoon features a moment where Daffy mimics Bugs Bunny by chewing a carrot and saying, “What’s up, Doc?” It’s one of only two Warner Bros shorts where Yosemite Sam isn’t paired with Bugs Bunny.
