Can you match these ad mascots to their brands?
Who is the Kool-Aid man, really?
None of us particularly love being marketed at. So, when a brand does it well, and a campaign resonates with us, we forge a connection not just with the company, but also with the mascot that they're represented by.
So let's see how effective all those marketing efforts are. We'll name a mascot, you pick the company they shill for. Hopefully, they've done a good job, and you can identify all ten!

"You got 7 out of 10. You sure have been effectively marketed to!"
Farfel the Dog, Sarah Tucker, Speedee, never heard of them.

N-E-S-T-L-E-S(sung letter by letter at a good clip)
nestles makes the very best...
CHOoooc laaaaate (takes 5 or 6 seconds drawing out the two vowels as if losing breath)
Sarah Tucker kept adding a dallop of Cool whip on each desert (you ARE getting desert, Cool Whip makes it better)
AND SPEEDY.... WOW McDonalds handed you your food before your change
he was more popular in 50's and early 60's than Ronald McDonald who started in 1963
the switch was a plus in long term, but effectively throwing Speedy away took guts.
he was why you bought fast food... because "he" (aka McDonald's service) was SPEEDY

...and the "N-E-S-T-L-E-S... Nestles makes the very best" part of the jingle was sung by Danny O'Day... one of the two puppets voiced by ventriloquist Jimmy Nelson...
8 out of 10. i missed farfel the dog. i guessed the obvious. not thinking nestle's quik. and i missed sarah tucker. now that i see the answer was cool whip it comes back to me.
9/10. Thrown by #6 since I've also never heard of Farfel the dog. I only remember the rabbit for Quik.
I also remember Sinclair gasoline from when I was just a kid in the 60's. I understand they are trying to get reestablished across the country. So when, oh when will they ever reappear in Michigan? (Same goes for Borden!)

6/10 I've never heard of most of them, got lucky and guessed right on a few. Only ones I knew for sure were #2 and #8.
