I’m still stuck on the Dagostino one. I remember as a kid on Long Island thinking that it was such a real city supermarket. Years later I transferred to NYU and was housed in a midtown hotel during my first semester. The day I moved in my mom took me to a Dagostino to get groceries and I remember thinking - Wow I really live in the city now! Lol.

Feel like I was even more likely to hear the radio commercials when I was upstate.

There was a pretty good Steve Coogan Alan Partridge joke involving this beverage which surprised me at the time because I for some reason thought it was Tri-State- or at most US-only.

This is interesting:
https://www.nytimes.com/1976/08/24/archives/advertising-rca-shifts-color-tv-strategy.html

Many spokesmen on radio and TV commercials have become celebrities, particularly when they are the principal owners of the businesses they talk about. If you don't believe it, catch the “Midday Live!” program on Channel 5 today at 11:30 A.M.

For in addition to what may be considered typical talk show guests—such as Rita Moreno and Jerry Stiller of the new film, “The Ritz”—five “stars” of the world of commercials are slated to appear. They are Frank Perdue of Perdue Inc., Tom Carvel of the Carvel Corporation, Sam Goody of the recordstore chain bearing his name, Leo Wiser of the Automobile Club of America and Sy Syms of Syrns clothiers.

What's the story?

I guess that’s supposed to start with “Oh” and I can’t find any intranetz reference to the second part but it seemed to bubble up from some deep cranial fold and out through the brainwaves.
