Munchos - Commercial

[apecannon]

i'm trying to fight the urge to go buy some munchos now.

you know before doritos, munchos were the #1 chip in the US?

[Slartibartfass13]

...well damn, now I could really go for some potato chips.

[tripdefect87]

I've had half a dozen or so bags of Munchos, they aren't that great honestly

[milograamans2]

This is a terrific advertisement.

[loriloristuff]

Cookie Monster has a prior life!

[BobCMcDonald]

Munchos make you purple!"

[RandomGio]

@BobCMcDonald how does it make you purple?

[BobCMcDonald]

@RandomGio look at cookie

[RandomGio]

@BobCMcDonald oh i get it the munchos will consume us and we will become like him

[RandomGio]

[LaDiDaSongVideos]

I love watching old advertisements. Old Jim Henson Company ads even more so.

[cstoczyn]

@LaDiDaSongVideos Yeah

[dedricthere]

Munchos rock.

[cstoczyn]

@dedricthere Long Live Frito-Lay!!!!!

[tejojo]

Too bad Munchos are now thinner than regular potato chips!

[RetroToledo]

@tejojo It certainly does feel pretty cheap for the money you pay for those bags (namely the $2 ones, you could've bought regular Lay's instead).

[Madnessonman]

It's not the Cookie Monster. It's the Muncho Monster.

[Lonnie514]

I wonder how the original Munchos were. At first they were thicker chips, now they are thinner. I love 'em. but sometimes they cut the roof of my mouth.

[fullervisiondotnet]

@Lonnie514 Probably something along the lines of Pringles, which came out around the same time.

[RetroToledo]

@Lonnie514 Apparently Lay's "Stax" are said to be close to what the original Munchos were.

[pyrogyra72]

@RetroToledo Really? I never realized that. And I love both Munchos and Stax.

[RetroToledo]

@pyrogyra72 I never did try Stax before, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's what they are myself.

[pyrogyra72]

@RetroToledo They are kind of like pringles, but they are a little thicker and they don't break as easily.

[RetroToledo]

@pyrogyra72 Well I was going by what Wikipedia says anyway as it sounds like Munchos use to be thicker back then.

[MultiKyle666]

ahhhhhhhhh frank oz was cookie monster in the show....not this commercial.....TANKS K BI

[rockstawxp]

i love munchos

[Studmeister17]

@rockstawxp Where can you buy them? I haven't been able to find them in ANY stores!

[rockstawxp]

@Studmeister17 oh i just buy them like at the gas station or walmart. maybe it just depends on where you live. i live in north carolina. i've been eating so much that i have like 10 bags that are empty.

[bigtymer9778]

If only the cookie monster would have listened to all those PSA's that told him munchos was just a gateway snack to heavier snack abuse like cookies for example...

[karim2324]

0:08 Old Cookie Monster

[vgcatsfan1]

MUUUUUUNCHOOOOOOOOOS

[danceractress96]

Now I know where the Cookie Monster came from:)

[Fiddlewheel]

I prefer Doritos...

[Yoshisproductions]

These are soo GOOD

[SuperPivottv]

the muncho monster...

epic

[soylentgreen666]

Cookie Monster in these ads was known by the ever-creative name of "Arnold"

[overloadpwns]

lol

[Rubberman202]

Muncho Monster?  ...Nooooo...

[AlmightyToonGod]

This commercial made me love Munchos

[sonicadx]

@JeffHardyXX yeah :)

[sonicadx]

@JeffHardyXX Yeah ! im hungry if only I had more >3

[JLProduction1JL]

haha cookie monster use to be muncho monster

[geekoron]

Nice...

In retrospect, not a very nice idea showing a popular kids icon devouring so many chips- I guess Childhood Obesity was not the monster it has become today.

[blakedkitty]

whar do you by munchos? in az?

[sonicadx]

I'm eating Munchos right now.

[sonicadx]

@sonicadx I don't see why not eat Munchos. They're good they're fine come on down to have a Muncho time !

I wonder if the Muppets remember doing these commercials.

[AlmightyToonGod]

Thanks to this commercial I now LOVE Munchos.

[shanazmohammed14]

[muppetlover16]

@RabbitDance That's his grandpappy Arnold the Munchos Monster.

[cstoczyn]

@muppetlover16 O I C

[kungfujiapple]

From 1969. Also features Jim Henson as Cookie Monster from "Sesame Street".

[cstoczyn]

@kungfujiapple You Mean Arnold Monster

[SmileLee]

A "potato crisp" you say?

[cheady20]

I went on a quest to find Munchos after this ad. I was surprised that they actually still make them.

[NicholasMoreau]

That's very cool.

[madmanulin11]

Cookie Monster was in this ad

[dascottjr]

True, though obviously not yet a cookie lover (and it's Jim's voice instead of Frank). Good on Munchos and the CTW for letting them post this.

[RabbitDance]

Well he was young, his voice hadn't changed yet.

[cstoczyn]

@madmanulin11 Or Should I Say Arnold Monster
