"Ask your grocer for Chef Boyardee's Spaghetti Dinner with meat or mushroom sauce, won't you?" God these old commercials are straight-up /cute/. I can't say no when he asks so nicely like that! ^3^
In those days you got a camera and made a speach about your product and the commercial was finished, no actirs editing ect. Just go in the kitchen or garage and shoot. get it developed and send copies to the TV stations
Ineresting. In the word "Boyardee" back then, emphasis is placed on the second syllable where as today it is placed on the last. Subtle changes over time!
@AOVengeance AMEN to THAT!! What we call life today isn't anywhere near the quality of life we had back then... yeah, things weren't perfect, but, at least we didn't have halfbreed nitwits running this once-great country straight down to HELL!
...while continuing to represent "Chef Boy-ar-dee" in TV and radio commercials (including this one, which appeared on "LOVE OF LIFE", sponsored by American Home Products), as well as creating new ideas for the company until his death in 1985.
Yes, there was a real "Chef Boy-ar-dee". His name was Ettore "Hector" Boiardi, and he operated a successful Italian restaurant in Cleveland during the 1920s and '30s. His customers liked his spaghetti sauce SO much, he began giving it to them "on the side" (eventually, with grated cheese and uncooked spaghetti) - then, he sold a "complete spaghetti dinner" in packages, with other canned products, and concentrated on that business. By the end of the '40s, American Home Products bought him out..
That stuff is dogshit. Somebody should slap that chef son of a bitch across his ugly ethnic face.
