Lennon Flakes

It was reported that John Lennon once confessed in 1980 magazine interview that the song “Good Morning, Good Morning” from The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band was actually inspired by a television commercial for 1967 Kellogg’s Corn Flakes. The jingle went: "Good morning, good morning, The best to you each morning, Sunshine Breakfast, Kellogg's Corn Flakes, Crisp and full of fun".

Unfortunately, this isn’t it, but here’s one of Corn Flakes commercials from 1960’s . It's funny, weird and kind of ahead of its time.
