"Schoolhouse Rock" and "Time for Timer" fans may need to wrack their brains a little deeper to recall this wonderful vintage PSA about how we should all eat more fruit.
Although maybe not as much fruit as the kids in this cartoon are eating -- they look like they're each about to wolf down half of central Florida.
Notes one of the snide commenters, "Well, considering the generation who watched this became a bunch of fat f----, i think it's safe to say this PSA was less then succesful."
Yeah, maybe, but considering that this person can't spell "successful," and doesn't know the difference between "than" and "then," I think it's safe to say the various Grammar Rock versions of Schoolhouse Rock were lost on him or her.

Oh, I remember that one very well. Also "hanker for a hunk of cheese." And I think there was one (maybe it was the cheese one) about freezing orange juice instead of eating popsicles?
"Sunshine On a Stick!" I remember those spots.
The odd thing is that, even though you have to describe them as "like Schoolhouse Rock but not-- you know, with the weird little orange guy," people of a certain age still know exactly what you're talking about.
Also, as long as I'm de-lurking, what a wonderful blog.
