I remember that soup! Once I found a dead mouse in can. Funny thing though. In that same can I also found a tiny pair of red shorts with big buttons, a pair of tiny white gloves and a pair of yellow shoes. I wonder.............
Yep, that was Olan Soule pitching Pop-Tarts off-camera in 1967- the same year Kellogg's introduced Puffa-Puffa Rice. Sterling said, "Somebody good made 'em....Heinz". And Heinz discovered, as with their famous "Great American Soups" ad featuring Ann Miller, (and conceived by Stan Freberg), that nobody REALLY wanted to try them....they eventually got out of the soup business [except for "food service" to restaurants, cafeterias, et. al.].

I haven't seen that Puffa Puffa Rice commercial since the summer of '67; 43 years ago.
Pop Tarts are still on the market today while Puffa Puffa Rice is long gone.

Sounded to me like he said, "Somebody GOOD made 'em....Heinz."
What does Sterling Holloway actually say at the end of the "Happy Soup" commercial (that is, after they sing the "Happy Soup" jingle)?
