1950s Raisin Bran commercial - Family Guy

From Season 16, Episode 16
Content not owned by me, obviously

[@iixnullxii1]

And after a hearty bowl of Post Raisin Bran, it's the perfect time to enjoy a cool, Winston cigarette. Winston brand cigarettes: The Doctors' cigarette of choice.

[@robertcorbell1006]

Lucky Strike and Chesterfield were the doctor-recommended brands. Winston was and is also a strong and dark smoke. The cool taste comes from unfiltered Camels or menthol Marlboro.

[@chunkymunkey9182]

Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble liked this.

[@zxKAOS1]

There was a new FCA policy change that you can't advertise tobacco to kids starting from the 70a (see the old, Winston commercials using the Flinstones). Even though Family Guy isn't supposed to be for kids, and that's NOT what the ad would be about, I guess they would rather just leave out smoking for simplicity's sake.

[@flamingpi2245]

@@Mumblix A grape is a fruit, botanically a berry, of the deciduous woody vines of the flowering plant genus Vitis. Grapes can be eaten fresh as table grapes or they can be used for making wine, jam, grape juice, jelly, grape seed extract, raisins, vinegar, and grape seed oil. Grapes are a non-climacteric type of fruit, generally occurring in clusters. The cultivation of the domesticated grape began 6,000-8,000 years ago in the Near East.[1] Yeast, one of the earliest domesticated microorganisms, occurs naturally on the skins of grapes, leading to the discovery of alcoholic drinks such as wine. The earliest archeological evidence for a dominant position of wine-making in human culture dates from 8,000 years ago in Georgia.[2][3][4] The oldest known winery was found in Armenia, dating to around 4000 BC.[5] By the 9th century AD, the city of Shiraz was known to produce some of the finest wines in the Middle East. Thus it has been proposed that Syrah red wine is named after Shiraz, a city in Persia where the grape was used to make Shirazi wine.[6] Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics record the cultivation of purple grapes, and history attests to the ancient Greeks, Cypriots, Phoenicians, and Romans growing purple grapes both for eating and wine production.[7] The growing of grapes would later spread to other regions in Europe, as well as North Africa, and eventually in North America. In 2005 a team of archaeologists concluded that some Chalcolithic wine jars, which were discovered in Cyprus in the 1930s, were the oldest of their kind in the world, dating back to 3,500 BC.[8] Moreover, Commandaria, a sweet dessert wine from Cyprus, is the oldest manufactured wine in the world, its origins traced as far back as 2000 BC.[9] In North America, native grapes belonging to various species of the genus Vitis proliferate in the wild across the continent, and were a part of the diet of many Native Americans, but were considered by early European colonists to be unsuitable for wine. In the 19th century, Ephraim Bull of Concord, Massachusetts, cultivated seeds from wild Vitis labrusca vines to create the Concord grape which would become an important agricultural crop in the United States. Most domesticated grapes come from cultivars of Vitis vinifera, a grapevine native to the Mediterranean and Central Asia. Minor amounts of fruit and wine come from American and Asian species such as: Vitis amurensis, the most important Asian species Vitis labrusca, the North American table and grape juice grapevines (including the Concord cultivar), sometimes used for wine, are native to the Eastern United States and Canada. Vitis mustangensis (the mustang grape), found in Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma Vitis riparia, a wild vine of North America, is sometimes used for winemaking and for jam. It is native to the entire Eastern United States and north to Quebec. Vitis rotundifolia (the muscadine), used for jams and wine, is native to the Southeastern United States from Delaware to the Gulf of Mexico.

This video does make me wanna eat Post Raisin Bran, which is made with raisins which are grapes that have been dried in the sun for a long period of time, and bran, the hard outer layers of cereal grain, along with germ, which is an integral part of whole grains.

Can someone tell me what happens when I eat Raisin Bran?

[@NotThePh0enix]

You die because of the raisins

Which are grapes that have been dried in the sun for a long period of time.

The Raisin Bran flow through your intestines, and then enter your stomach for digestion.

I forgot this was a Family Guy gag. I remembered this as a real commercial i saw somewhere once.

[@deltakhappa6248]

Wait what are raisins made of again? I think I missed it.

The episode was running a minute and 20 short so they took a ten second gag and extended it.
