I don't know why, but your "Nestles makes the very best ..." reminded me of the "Texaco Star Theater" and their signature commercial, "We are the men of Texaco...". At least that's how I remember it. A car pulls up tp a Texaco pump and a swarm of uniformed attendants service your car all the while singing the jingle. The services (non-existent now unless paid extra for or at a fast oil change place) included checking all the fluids, tire pressures, cleaning the windshield, etc while the gas was being pumped. Ahh, the god old days. Now it takes a decoder just to get the damn hood open and then you can't find anything to do yourself because of all the computers and environmental disposal laws. BTW, who was the ventriloquist and his dummy who did the Nestle's jingle.
