Toonfomercial: Remember Wonder bread's "Fresh Guys"? (1970's)

 Today, Wonder bread is part of Bimbo Bakeries' line of products, along with Thomas' English muffins & bagels, and Freihofer's bread. In the 70's, it was part of Interstate Brands, the makers of Millbrook bread and Dolly Madison pastries. During this time, the ad agency came up with the idea of putting animated faces on the back of loaves of bread, hence The Fresh Guys.

Sounds like Daws Butler might be one of the voices.

In addition to Daws, the other "Fresh Guy" sounds like Don Messick to me.

I wasn't sure, but I think you're right. Makes me wonder if Hanna-Barbera had done the animation. Thanks, Michael.
