@@QuestionableMaterial not burl ives, youre thinking of the snowman in rudolph this man's name is, and im not kidding, Thurl Ravenscroft. he also voiced the vacuum in the brave little toaster, and the whale in pinocchio
This first aired in 1960; note Quick Draw McGraw's face on the box of "Sugar Smacks" in the "Snack Pak" assortment at the end; that's the year his face became associated with that cereal, as Kellogg's sponsored his weekly cartoon show in syndication...
Sorry Tony. I actually enjoyed seeing these again. Brings back great memories of when I was a kid. I recently have been trying to eat better and have started reading the labels more carefully. I don't mind that companies sell candy. If it says "candy" then I can choose to eat it or not. But when it says, "part of a healthy diet" or "low in fat" when it is essentially candy, I think it is deceptive. Obviously lots of us have been fooled. Just look at the epidemic of obesity in this county.
They are Grrrreat all right! 38% sugar, if you like candy for breakfast. Wake up late? Have a Coke (and a cigarette of two) for breakfast, same amount of sugar. That's all you really need. Thanks Kellogg's for all those Grrrreat years of diabetes, obesity, stroke and heart attacks. You really are Grrrreat!!!
And it starts when you are a kid. Tony the Tiger is very cute and funny: that is why they use him to sell the stuff to kids. We have to look seriously at this issue. It is not funny anymore. Especially when it involves protecting our kids from predatory corporate marketing schemes designed to rake in the big bucks for them while we get duped.
Blaming a character invented in 1952 for an obesity problem that took off 25 years later? Anybody remember AHA and FDA telling us we need more low fat "heart healthy" carbs? 2,000,000 years of humans, but only 10,000 of agriculture. Our minds are modern, but our bodies are still built for hunting and gathering. That means high-fiber veggies, nuts, some fruit, and lots of high-fat meat. (Remember they used everything but the squeal!) Look up the fat content of organ meat and tell me I'm wrong.
This is the same guy who sang, “You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch.”
Burl Ives. Certainly sounds like it.

As an animator myself I was impressed by the bullriding part.
That is awesome!! Thanks for posting the memory!

I don't remember ever seeing this one. Must be one that was not shown in the NY area.
In the seventies, Wacky Packages came up with a spoof called "Frosty Snow Flakes. " The slogan should be, "They're brrr-rrr-reat!"
now the voice actor is dead.

@djmyvideos
Dallas McKennon voiced Tony?! That's surprising.
He voiced Tony the Tiger from 1952 to 1953 and then Thurl Ravenscroft voiced Tony from 1953 to 2005.
Old School
