Pick up a tin of beans and say
Beans, meanz Heinz!

Great thread, I'd forgotten all about the 'Best peas went to Farrows' ad! I think modern creatives with their clever imagery and random fragments of existing songs could learn a thing or two from the old days of 'proper' jingles.

Only the crumbliest, flakiest, chocolate
Tastes like chocolate never tasted before

The Milky Bar kid is strong 'n tough
And only the best is good enough
The creamiest milk
The whitest bar
The goodness that's in Milky Bar


The Milky Bars are on meeeeee!

Or...

The Milky Bar Kid is tough and strong
The Milky Bar Kid just can't go wrong
The Milky Bar Kid only eats what right
That's Milky Bar, it's smooth and white.

The Milky Bars are on meeeee.
