EUREKA!!! I can FINALLY rest easy

A couple of times, I have posted asking if anyone remembers a commercial from their childhood, regarding Farmer Brown talking about healthy eating. The tune was haunting but I couldn't quite place it.

I'd usually see it during Romper Room and Magic Garden

After long last, and a bunch of people I was crazy that there was no such commercial, I found it!!! Someone uploaded on YouTube Chat Icon

Yes, I have problems



Here it is!!!! There were others, but this was one of them
