We were playing the fiddle tune "Cold Frosty Morn" at a recent session and, for some reason, I was reminded of a totally unrelated old telvision commercial jingle for Frosty Morn meats from back in the sixties. In said commercial, a chorus line of cartoon piggies do a can-can and sing the jingle while the lyrics stream across the bottom of the screen accompanied by a bouncing ball a la Mitch Miller so that the audience at home can sing along. Got it? I think one of the programs they sponsored was the Porter Waggoner show or another of those Saturday afternoon country music things that were around back then.

I can remember parts of the lyrics, ie:

The height of a piggie's ambition
From the day he is born
Is just that he'll be good enough
To be a Frosty Morn

So....everybody sing
Frosty Morn, Frosty Morn.....

I have not seen Frosty Morn products in area stores for years, but they are apparently still in business. A Google search found lots of references to recalls of their products due to Listeria contamination, but no web page for the company. Wonder why???
