Lyons - Tasty Treat
“An hour from now you’ll wish you’d had one”, and this cinema snack song will be stuck in your head long after that
Overview
What’s your cinema snack of choice? This earworm advert would have likely led into the lost cinema intermission, where the catchy refrain would battle your resolve to stay in your seat and let your stomach rumble. Despite the song and dance there is decidedly nothing gastro about the burgers and hotdogs on offer - bar gastroenteritis, perhaps. I’d stick to the popcorn.
