Catalina, the Chicken of the Sea mermaid

She's been around for decades, but went nameless until 2014 after a contest was held to give her a name.



Her look has changed over the years. This is what she looks like these days.

Is this for a contest? I vote YES if it is. I love Chicken of the Sea. I signed up years and years ago for a freebie from them and every year they send my a birthday postcard with a coupon and it always makes me laugh.

Fun fact: in the 70s animated commercials, the mermaid was voiced by Sally Struthers. (In response to the chorus asking, "What's the best tuna?" Sally—the mermaid—replied, "Chicken of the Sea!")

Unfortunately, I can't find a commercial that uses her voice, so you'll have to take my word for it.

I never new she did those ads. The only ones I recall were for the save the children variety that she did way back..

In a matter totally unrelated, when I was poking around looking for Underwood Deviled Ham ads the guy in your icon turned up with a picture of him at age 47 next to the one in your icon. Except for the Van Dyke he hasn't changed much.

Mason Reese…yeah, he grew up but kept the haircut.

He now owns a bar called Destination (http://www.destinationbarnyc.com) in New York City and has a rescued Pomeranian named Buddy who accompanies him everywhere.

I used to think she was so gorgeous to the point where I wanted to buy a can just to cut off the label and save it when I was a kid.

I love the old mermaid. The new one looks like an ad for Second Life or IMVU
