I agree with the nostalgia/brainwashing thing. I think it is partly because I'm GenX and I remember things like Saturday morning cartoons being the highlight of my week. Then cable started being a thing (or it already was, but my family was able to afford it) and a lot of the cartoons were thirty minute toy commercials for action figures, etc. It was still fairly clumsy back then. It was less so by the time I had kids.
I love Spaghettios and I can hear the jingle in my head with no effort at all. I have a ton of jingles/parts of jingles in my head. The nostalgia of my childhood is very commercialized. I don't think this is a good thing, but the fondness lingers. I would still be eating Ding Dongs and Twinkies, etc if they were not a bunch of union busting dirtbags. I love McDonald's cheeseburgers. They are shit food, but I love them. If I had been introduced to them as an adult, they would probably make me puke.
