Today's [livejournal.com profile] vintagephoto reminded me of a commercial that I saw a long long time ago :-)

Until today, I didn't realize that this commercial was a parody of a 1957 April Fool's Day joke about spaghetti trees. To be honest, I was kind of confused about where spaghetti came from as a kid :-D

This was a Canadian based chain. Not sure what the exchange rate for $4 Canadian was like then. It eventually combined with Harvey's and Swiss Chalet.

This ad was for NY & New England area. I remember the one on Hoosick Street way way back. It's been a Dunkin' Donuts and then something else in the same building since Arthur Treachers left town.
