D00d, I don't know if Kraft (the maker of Corn Nuts)did this in all the markets, but in Houston, back in like 1999 they had a "Bust a Nut" campaign.
Here is one of their radio commercials.
1999? I graduated in '80. And the only reason I remember eating them is that a professor stopped class to ask who
was eating them, since he could smell them.
(This from a guy that would bring in the pungent types of bagels, no less.)
Thanks for the link. I've added it to my download scheduler.
