Beckers, they were bought out by the absolutely horrible Mac's about 15 years ago now. A shame, Becker's was a whole lot nicer than Mac's ever will be.
Useless knowledge: My grandparents ran several of the Beckers stores in Stratford, Ontario back about 50 years ago. They later sold them and moved here to London to help set up a few of them in the mid 60's.
The most memorable Beckers advertisment in my mind was a 1997 Christmas ad on 1050 chum where a man's voice is altered in a low "Santa Claus" pitch talking about how thick Becker's Egg Nog is & how it took him 2 seconds to swallow each gulp. I manage to tape it because back in the day, I loved to tape my "deep demon voice" Hahahahahahahah.
The jug is only used once, you guys.

LOL @ the 120% inflation between 1986 and 2011! Mac's (inheritor of the Becker's franchise through buy-out) now charges $4.75 for the 4L milk jug.
