I always wondered why Pebbles asked for gape juice as she called it. I guess after she was born, they thought the cigarette commercials were too adult. I guess they dropped Winston and took on Skippy Peanut Butter and Welch's brand. I think I even saw a One A Day vitimin commercial from The Flintstones too. I grew up takinf Flintstones Vitamins. I asked my Garndpa if he liked The Flintsones when he was little, but he told me they didn't have TV when he was little.
@Sheri451 boy i cant believe over in the usa they use to use cartoons to sell their products not here in Australia guess its the only way people would buy things
"Integrated", in this case, 'Myster', meant the sponsor created a commercial, featuring the stars and/or cast of the show they were sustaining, endorsing their product, making it look like a seamless extension of the episode. This practice continued on most TV shows until the late '60s.
..and now you know WHY Pebbles usually asked for "grape juice" in several episodes...Welch's was the primary sponsor of the series from 1963 through '66 [Best Foods, makers of Skippy peanut butter, was the alternate sponsor]. As was the custom back then, the cast of the show usually appeared in an "integrated commercial" for their sponsor's product at the end of the episode.
Wow... What a Classic you have.... Thanx for adding this... I'm Interested in Old Flintstones video's of any kind... I have the Old Flintstones Bush Beer Promo... Sometime I will add it on You Tube...
Yeah, I had tried to upload that Busch Beer industrial film a coupla years ago, but it got rejected (at 21 minutes, too long), then my old account got suspended!! But I like vintage "Flintstones" videos too (as you may have noticed by now)?!?

@42bluey Yes. Commercials are strange here anyway.

The Flintstones smoked cigarettes and drank Welch's grape juice. Weird family.

It's rich in levulose! Translation: Grapes have glucose, also called levulose.
