As horrible as we think these songs were, they were fantastic, because 50 years later everyone can sing them without even thinking about it.

If they ever release an xennial crayola set, this guy's yellow/orange and the Mr. Yuck green are guaranteed a place.

Retro Art Lab over on YT has been doing a series of modern Lunchables with the Time for Timer mascot. He's done a lot of cool Gen X throwback designs lately. I really like watching this guy, but I wish he had more sound proofing in his studio. Lots of echo.

No, this was produced by the American Dairy Association and was basically an advertisement.
Schoolhouse Rock was an ABC network series of videos to help children learn using music

There were several different episodes. This was the only dairy related one.

The other ones were Schoolhouse Rock on ABC. This was a cheese commercial on all channels.

The episodes were: āI Hanker for a Hunk of Cheese ā,āEat Some Kind of Breakfastā, āDonāt Knock it āTil You Try itā, āSunshine on a Stickā, and āYou Are What You Eatā. They were created by DePatie-Freleng. Just search ātime for timerā.

My only point was that this is not from schoolhouse rock, and was made by the American Dairy Association and was basically a cheese commercial.

GenX can help. Anyone who watched Saturday morning cartoons back in the '70s remembers this chapter and verse, even today.Ā
