More detailed information on exactly how to subsist on pine products might be helpful, however, since I do not know personally anyone who harvests them for eating.

Euell "Ever eat a pine tree? Many parts are edible" Gibbons.

He died shortly after making the Grape Nuts commercial that made him famous. The joke was that he choked on a pine cone.

That was almost forty years ago. This makes me feel really, really old all of a sudden.

You’re not the only one. I remember Funny ‘n Glare (Sonny and Cher, for those of you who never read Mad Magazine) did a short spoof of his GrapeNuts commercial that had him repeating the “You ever et a pine cone?” line in it.
