Flashback: Candy, Trains and Advertising

[train18393]

In some of the Good and Plenty ads had Choo-Choo charlie holding a box of good and plenty in his hand, mimicking the motion of the side rods of a steam engine with his arms and shuffled his feet while going around the room and sang Good and Plenty, Good and Plenty.Woo-Woo and pretended he was a steam engine. the candy in the box shaking around in his hand made the steam chuff-chuff sound. You are going to have to use your imagination to see what I am saying due to the media.

I remember shaking the box of Good and Plenty while singing the song as a kid...

 

Me too! I haven’t thought about that in years. Is Good and Plenty still made?
