@@Mumblix A grape is a fruit, botanically a berry, of the deciduous woody vines of the flowering plant genus Vitis. Grapes can be eaten fresh as table grapes or they can be used for making wine, jam, grape juice, jelly, grape seed extract, raisins, vinegar, and grape seed oil. Grapes are a non-climacteric type of fruit, generally occurring in clusters. The cultivation of the domesticated grape began 6,000-8,000 years ago in the Near East.[1] Yeast, one of the earliest domesticated microorganisms, occurs naturally on the skins of grapes, leading to the discovery of alcoholic drinks such as wine. The earliest archeological evidence for a dominant position of wine-making in human culture dates from 8,000 years ago in Georgia.[2][3][4] The oldest known winery was found in Armenia, dating to around 4000 BC.[5] By the 9th century AD, the city of Shiraz was known to produce some of the finest wines in the Middle East. Thus it has been proposed that Syrah red wine is named after Shiraz, a city in Persia where the grape was used to make Shirazi wine.[6] Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics record the cultivation of purple grapes, and history attests to the ancient Greeks, Cypriots, Phoenicians, and Romans growing purple grapes both for eating and wine production.[7] The growing of grapes would later spread to other regions in Europe, as well as North Africa, and eventually in North America. In 2005 a team of archaeologists concluded that some Chalcolithic wine jars, which were discovered in Cyprus in the 1930s, were the oldest of their kind in the world, dating back to 3,500 BC.[8] Moreover, Commandaria, a sweet dessert wine from Cyprus, is the oldest manufactured wine in the world, its origins traced as far back as 2000 BC.[9] In North America, native grapes belonging to various species of the genus Vitis proliferate in the wild across the continent, and were a part of the diet of many Native Americans, but were considered by early European colonists to be unsuitable for wine. In the 19th century, Ephraim Bull of Concord, Massachusetts, cultivated seeds from wild Vitis labrusca vines to create the Concord grape which would become an important agricultural crop in the United States. Most domesticated grapes come from cultivars of Vitis vinifera, a grapevine native to the Mediterranean and Central Asia. Minor amounts of fruit and wine come from American and Asian species such as: Vitis amurensis, the most important Asian species Vitis labrusca, the North American table and grape juice grapevines (including the Concord cultivar), sometimes used for wine, are native to the Eastern United States and Canada. Vitis mustangensis (the mustang grape), found in Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma Vitis riparia, a wild vine of North America, is sometimes used for winemaking and for jam. It is native to the entire Eastern United States and north to Quebec. Vitis rotundifolia (the muscadine), used for jams and wine, is native to the Southeastern United States from Delaware to the Gulf of Mexico.

This was actually effective advertising. But I’m a forever stan for _Colon Blow._ Edit: Phil Hartman is a treasure: czcams.com/video/Ku42Iszh9KM/video.html
In the days before Mad Men and the rise of the “modern” advertisement (the 1950’s), TV commercials usually came off more like high school presentations than flashy tributes. Things like music, moving images, transitions in time, etc. hadn’t yet been introduced to the ad world, so 99% of ads from that time were exactly like this: a single person sitting in front of a camera using the product while somebody off screen dryly tells you about said product. They were also excruciatingly long, just like this one. 😂

I don't know why, but the guy at the beginning looking sad with the slices of bread cracks me up.
The verbose meme in a nutshell XD LOL
I still remember some of the commercials from the sixties and seventies and yes they were just like that almost.
More like free pack of Lucky Strikes in every box!
Lucky Strikes, the cigarettes? Are you talking about them? And did you get this from CZcamsr adoseofbuckley? I LOVE him and his channel. He’s so great and funny!
For cereal commercial this is way too scientific
I’m guessing the joke here is that Post Raisin Bran is NOT really that smart of a cereal choice.
You take that back !
It needs the host of the show it's sponsoring to appear onscreen and speak to us directly about it.
Was so high watching this, laughing so hard had tears coming out
Long but effective. I now want some Raisin Bran.
So mind game:
Imagine if the ads that Gen-Z are coming up with now, were then.
What would we have now?
Just Google "memes from the future," the ads are kinda like that
Wow! I didn't know that Post Rasin Brand was made with raisins, which are grapes that have been dried in the sun for a long period of time; and bran, the hard outer layers of cereal grain, along with germ, which is an integral part of whole grain! The more you know!
I never thought of what raisins were until now
I won't lie, I kinda want some Raisin Bran now.
me too 😭🤣
Once that ditty gets in your head ...
"Post Rasin Bran made with rasins which are grapes that have been dried in the sun for a long period of time and bran the hard outer layers of cereal grain along with germ it is an integral part of whole grains Post Rasin Bran"
not gonna lie this is kinda catchy
I remember seeing a commercial like this except it was explaining what a corn dog was. I'm like who the heck doesn't know where the corn dog is but apparently there was a time when nobody knew. Blows my freaking mind every time I think about it. I bet in the future certain types of computers will be the same way.
Use of the word "integral" impressive
He mispronounced it, though.. Possibly on purpose.
I grew up with “two scoops” of raisins, and thought that was a lot of information. Guess people really cared about “why” back then.
I'm eating raisin brand while I watch this LOL
The song just repeating the whole commercial... cracks me up.
I think SethMacFarlane has watched as many of those old coronet videos as I have lmao
Okay, I think I got it. Bran is the grape that is dried in the sun, right?
Damn that is a fuck ton of raisin bran for one person in the morning.
Pretty accurate because they completely avoided talking about the massive amount sugar used.
Along with germ...
So basically not much different from quite a few 21st-century CZcams videos ... i.e., taking several minutes for every 20 seconds' worth of information
Ah... that jingle brings back memories. What a classic.
Angus if you're seeing this stop sending our group chat this ad
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣😂😂😂💀💀🤣
Not inaccurate to how 50's commercials were
CZcams looking at what ads they should give
Fast forward 50 years and this ad is condensed down to “Eat This, Poop Fast”.
That was your typical 1950s advert.
LMFAOOOOO why is this your only video
Can someone tell me what happens when I eat Raisin Bran?
You die because of the raisins
Which are grapes that have been dried in the sun for a long period of time.
The Raisin Bran flow through your intestines, and then enter your stomach for digestion.
If you have never watched the Chiquita commercial explaining the concept of a banana, what it tastes good with, and how to tell when to eat a banana, you are missing vital hilarious background on this joke
Can anyone else just listen to this voice describe various things for hours?
Wait what are raisins made of again? I think I missed it.
Made with raisins which are grapes which have been dried in the sun for a long period of time
And bran, the hard outer layers of cereal grain along with germ
It is an integral part of whole grains
That was WAAAAAYYY too fast
If this is how they describe raisin bran imagine how theyd tackle explaining lucky charms 😂
This was actually effective advertising. But I’m a forever stan for _Colon Blow._
Edit: Phil Hartman is a treasure: czcams.com/video/Ku42Iszh9KM/video.html
i was confused by this part
yea well..welcome to Family Guy
Check out any 50s commercials on CZcams they are mostly like this 😂😂
I Wasn't
Again
Made with
Raisins
It's a parody of 1950s and 1960s "social guidance videos"
In the days before Mad Men and the rise of the “modern” advertisement (the 1950’s), TV commercials usually came off more like high school presentations than flashy tributes. Things like music, moving images, transitions in time, etc. hadn’t yet been introduced to the ad world, so 99% of ads from that time were exactly like this: a single person sitting in front of a camera using the product while somebody off screen dryly tells you about said product. They were also excruciatingly long, just like this one. 😂
What's a raisin
Grapes that been dryed in the sun for a long period of time
Idk they kind of left that out :/
Raisin Bran: You’ll never poop again for the rest of your life.
The episode was running a minute and 20 short so they took a ten second gag and extended it.
