That's Jim MacKrell, later the host of the game show "Celebrity Sweepstakes" as the dad and playing the mom is the then-wife of another game show host, Bert Convy (Anne Convy who sometimes appeared with Bert together on "Tattletales")
A Whopper and Coke is nice, but no fries? Back then Burger King (like most other fast food chains) cooked its fries in beef tallow, and almost everyone who wasn't a vegetarian at the time will tell you that tallow-cooked fries taste far superior to those fried in seed oils. Not to mention the fact that recent studies have also suggested that tallow is better for you from a health perspective. That family should have learned to appreciate tallowed fries while they still could. And oh, how I wish I could've been alive in the 70s to experience it myself...
How I recall when I first saw this very commercial.Yes and it always returns memories to me too.
