... The Wheat Thins commercials with Sandy Duncan?? And how Wheat Thins were "baked, not fried"? Mostly I remember the ones where she was walking through the wheat field, eating Wheat Thins out of the box. The above kind of looks like an early '80s release, though. I looked for a wheat field commercial pic, but no luck yet. Maybe someday; I'm sure I'll post about it again, I'm always repeating myself..

I remember them well. And funny thing is, I was just talking to my son about Sandy Duncan. He had asked about other shows surviving when a lead left (ala Sheen & Two and Half Men) and I mentioned Valerie which became The Hogan Family with Duncan.
Totally remember those commercials. I've always LOVED Wheat Thins. I'll let Sandy take the credit for that. ;-)
I remember those. We always looked for proof of her glass eye.

I remember! I remember! I loved Wheat Thins. My mom always bought these thinking they were the healthy snack for kids. She'd serve them to us with cheese and a box of Hi-C. Thanks for the memory!

I love Wheat Thins!
Ally and Teri: When I used to visit my grandparents on cape cod, the family would all head out on the boat and anchor ourselves by one of the little islands off Chatham. Us kids would swim and play, while the adults all got smashed on gin-and-tonics while pigging out on wheat thins. Yes those were the days..
Joe, it was the "crack" of their day. too funny!
Absolutely I remember those commercials with Sandy Duncan and I also recall one of my friends claiming there was a rumor she had a glass eye. This started a debate amongst us kids whenever the ad would go on. Still don't know if there was any truth to that or just nonsense.
She doesn't have a glass eye, but she cannot see out of one of her eyes. A quote from her:
... many people think I have a glass eye. I had a tumor in my left eye which killed the optic nerve, but it’s my real eye. I just cannot see out of it. It remains a period of adjustment—sometimes things will be just out of range. I have no depth perception.”
This was in an interview where she was asked if she had scene the Family Guy scene about her "glass eye".
I meant seen the scene, not scene the scene.
I tired.
Teri: Once we pulled the boat up to a waterside restaurant, but management wouldn't seat them because they were so trashed..
CN: I think Wings just answered your question
Wings: Haha
