Subject: Peanut butter
Brent Pellegrini remembers Mike Wallace selling peanut butter, but I'm
pretty sure it wasn't Skippy. He sold Peter Pan peanut butter, and it was
either on Challenge of the Yukon or Sky King, but my memory banks are empty
as to which one it was. All I do remember was that I made my mother buy
Peter Pan for all of my PB&J sandwiches for years.

I remember hearing Wallace shill for Skippy Peanut Butter on Superman or some
such kid's show.
In my house I insisted that the only brand of peanut butter that my mother
could buy was PETER PAN Peanut Butter! Mike Wallace did the Peter Pan
commercials on SKY KING.
