"It's got all those fashionable traits. And they call it Fashion Plates."

The most elegant 1970s toy jingle.

SNAUSAGES

Does anyone remember the early '70s Cadbury's Chocolate ad: lots of airport clips and lyrics referring the the fact that even in the 'supersonic 70s', there's still Cadbury's Chocolate - one of today's great tastes.

I don't remember any of these!

Well the Cadbury's one was replaced with Cilla Black recommending that everyone put a "chunk in their cheek".

“I’m Chiquita banana and I’ve come to say/Bananas have to ripen in a certain way/When they are fleck’d with brown and have a golden hue/Bananas taste the best and are best for you/You can put them in a salad/You can put them in a pie-aye/Any way you want to eat them/It’s impossible to beat them/But, bananas like the climate of the very, very tropical equator/So you should never put bananas in the refrigerator.”

Hey, I think Barney Rubble interpolated this on his seminal Fruity Pebbles rap.

I still think that's a proto rockabilly tune right there.

Everybody hates to eat and run
You'd rather take it slow
But the way this life is going
Gotta grab your food and go
When all that runnin' round
Catches up with you at last
Get yourself some Alka Seltzer
and you'll feel better fast!

I've always loved the old-timey radio Sweet Adeline choral jingles for local rural banks and such. Very similar to the famous Empire jingle. It's hard to find examples online, but there used to be a lot of them and in the 80s they already sounded decades old.
