Take a Sniff, Pull It Out, The taste is gonna move you when you Pop It In Your Mouth!!!

Sadly, so did I. That's why ad jingle writers make the big bucks. They're songs stick in your brain forever like some kind of mental VD.

I remember eating that fruit and cream oatmeal as a kid. It was good.

I watch the juicy fruit commercials

on retrojunk web site. The song is like

this? Juicy fruit the taste taste taste

got the move ya. I am right? Sorry my song :)

I was actually able to sing along to that Juicy Fruit ad...it's indelible in my memory for some reason. Can you imagine being a musician and doing jingles for money? Talk about vomit.

This is the best of the commercial breaks you posted. So very '80s. Almost as good as '70s commercials, although today's ads can't compare with either.

[mainmedic]
