I noticed this a while ago, but I just got around to posting this. In the episode, "Problem With Popplers" the crew returns with popplers and puts them on a silver platter to eat. They all start eating them and Zoidberg says, "They're as tasty a unguarded Penguin nest." ( or some thing close to that ). In, "The Birdbot of Ice-Catraz" Leela returns from looking for Bender when she questions why Fry and Zoidberg are back in the ship. Zoidberg explains that they were sent back for doing an unsatisfactory job, as well as eating Penguin eggs. Then Fry exclaims, "You ate most of em' !"

Anyone else notice this ?

Also in Love and Rocket, when the crew gets their new uniforms he says , "Clothing, delicious clothing."
In the commentary for "The Taste of Freedom" David X. Cohen ( I think ) explains that they deleted a scene where Zoidberg says how he likes to eat clothing, and he eats the Planet Express' employees clothes while their in the freedom tub.

Yes, I did.  About a year ago.

Also you forgot:

Fry, Cryogenic Woman: ... and brains flew through space.

Need I say more?

Nevertheless it is nice that the writers had that level of cosistancy when it came to continuty as a opposed to The Simpsons

So much of that stuff tends to be happy accidents though, rather than actual intention to callback to earlier things.

No. Instead of watching Futurama, I sit in a room with my fingers in my ears, dancing to the national anthem whilst wearing clogs.

Thats all good...except both of those lines happened before Zoidberg ate the eggs and before the brains attacked earth.

Maybe they were just putting it in as a hint to whats coming up next. Maybe there will be an episode where Fry is taming Land-Sea Lions.
