ruThe other day I was spending my Tuesday afternoons the way I usually do--staying after class in the systematics lab, looking over the plants that had been set out for the day and practicing my keying. The book we use for keying is this big fat monster with something like 1500 or 2000 pages or so. I've never really bothered to look. Maybe I should, the next time I'm in the lab. In any case though, it's a big book. So, I was keying out a plant, probably one of the practice plants, I can't remember which one, when the book tells me to turn to page 1001. I do so, because, well, it's darn hard to key out a plant correctly if you don't follow what the book says(Usually. But that's another story).
As I'm doing so, I start hearing this little kooky cartoony male voice in my head, saying "1001 Taste Adventures!".
Now, call me crazy, but unless I've totally lost it, I'm almost CERTAIN that this was a voice from my youth, most likely from some commercial I saw over and over again while watching Saturday morning cartoons. It was also most likely trying to sell a food of some sort. Not too many sock commercials out there advertising for their taste, or how many adventures one can have with the taste of a sock. The problem is, I can't remember for the life of me what food it was that was promising so many taste adventures. It's starting to bother me that I can't remember. I've consulted the almighty google, but sadly have come up for naught in that regard. Found lots of sites recommending restaurants and what sort of taste adventures I can have in X city, but nothing that seems to touch on kooky cartoony males and Saturday morning commercials.
So, I pose the question to all of you, for the sake of my curiousity. Do any of you remember said commercial, and what it was advertising for?
