I'll bet others of a certain age can relate: I still remember every word and every note of this jingle (and the Mr. Ed theme song, etc.), but I can't remember where I put something two seconds ago.
I was stationed in Germany when the movie Jaws came out, and we were not sure when it would be available on post - so we decided to go to the German Cinema to view the movie. Since I only know a little German, and the movie was all in German - except the one part when they were singing, I got bored. When the shark came up on the boat to eat them - I started singing: Munch Munch, Munch a bunch of Fritos Corn Chips! Well apparently the German's recognized the commercial and busted out laughing! 😃
Oh if only I could get Buzzr on TV in my area. Not enough channel space for these sub-channels! Shared this with a few guys who think Mel Blanc is voicing the little kid here!
I wasn't all that wild over their corn chips, but, I'd gladly gulp them down just to get one of the spaceman or monster giveaway figures in a six pack,back in 64-65.

Back when a commercial was like an hour long lol

The boy in the closet sounds like Mel Blanc
That's because it is!
It is. Mel Blanc was the future voice of the Frito Bandito.
Fritos "nutritious" & giving "nourishment"???
I know! I laughed. I don't think the term 'junk food' was used yet. This was the beginning of that era.
