Punctuation mark missing in "Let's eat people!" (at least one would hope!) ... as well as from the starred clues (5)

I believe the answer is:

comma

(Other definitions for comma that I've seen before include "Kind of butterfly" , ", (stet)" , "Clause-separating punctuation" , ", which gives us pause" , "I signal a break" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
