Toonfomercial: Pac-Man gets his own line of pasta (1984)

 After the animated Pac-Man had ended its run after 2 seasons, Hanna-Barbera called some of the cast back for a commercial to promote---wait for it----Pac-Man canned pasta from Chef-Boy-Ar-Dee (now part of ConAgra Foods).

Marty Ingels (ex-Motormouse & Autocat), Barbara Minkus (ex-Curiosity Shop, Love American Style), and Russi Taylor voice the Pac-family.


Of course, as the popularity of the video game waned, the pasta disappeared from shelves.
