“Plop, plop, fizz, fizz; oh, what a relief it is!”

 

  What are some rhyming product jingles, slogans, or tag lines that you remember* right off the top of your head?

*Without looking them up in any way.

    New Kellogg's Apple Jacks,
    apple good for breakfast or snacks.
    Cinnamon toasty, apple tasty,
    a bowl a day keeps the bullies away.

    I insist on pop the sound,
    the best is missed without pop around.
    Ya can't stop hoppin when the cereal's poppin,
    Snap, crackle, pop, Rice Krispies!

    The beer is swill, but I remember the jingles.

    How do you feel when you walk on the field knowing you're the last to play?
    How do you feel when they take a new ball and the win is just five runs away?
    How do you feel when you hear the appeal but the umpire says, "No way"?
    How do you feel on the very last ball when only a six can save the day?
    How do you feel when the ball beats the field and clears the pickets on the way?
    How do you feel? How do you feel?
    I feel like a Tooheys, I feel like a Tooheys, I feel like a Tooheys or two
    I feel like a Tooheys, I feel like a Tooheys, I feel like a Tooheys draught brew

    They did a whole bunch of them, and cricket wasn't the only sport whose fans they targeted. Rugby (both codes), Australian football, soccer, sailing, horse racing, basketball, surfing (and surfboat racing, another uniquely Australian sport), cycling, ice hockey, rodeo riding, fishing, and Stu B would appreciate this one:

    The pitcher looks round from his place on the mound
    The catcher pounds on his mitt
    Everyone knows you're no Joe DiMaggio
    But the game all swings on one hit

    He curves it in low, "Strike one!", two to go
    Your knuckles turn white from the grip
    The next whistles through and the call is, "Strike two!"
    The bases are full*, this is it

    Well the next one is sly but you've got in your eye
    It cracks on the bat like a whip
    The outfielder throws as you're heading for home
    But you're in by the skin of your hip

    How do you feel? Like a Tooheys etc

    *poetic license, "loaded" doesn't scan

    I haven't tried Toohey's yet. I bought a six of Cooper's last week. Excellent.

    Extra Dry is drinkable - just barely. Forget New and Draught, both are filtered through live human kidneys. Black Ale is okay.

    I finally thought of one!

    "Extra value is what you get, when you buy Coronet". 

    I believe it was a brand of paper towels.
