I am trying to find the name of this short film or movie that I vaguely remember from my youth (the 1980s). All I remember is kids in a car, them getting abducted, and something about the aliens who abducted them loving anchovy pizza.

Cartoon or live-action?– phantom42Commented Sep 25, 2014 at 18:31

2Being forced to crave anchovies sounds more like something out of a horror movie, not sci-fi. Or do you mean the aliens crave anchovies?– OmegacronCommented Sep 25, 2014 at 19:04

UFO Kidnapped! by Nickelodeon in 1983. It featured the cast of You Can't Do That on Television, a high school parody/comedy series. YouTube videos start here.
The story has several children and a few adults being abducted by aliens in a classical silver saucer. The aliens liked anchovies on pizza, laughed often at the humans' ignorance about aliens and outer space, and took them in their spacecraft through a portal in the Sun to another star system. UFO Kidnapped! was a pilot show that was never picked up by Nickelodeon. You Can't Do That on Television was actually produced in Canada.
