When I was about 4 or 5, I used to see the Mrs.Butterworths commercials on tv, and the only lady that was the bottle would come to life. Well, whenever my mom bought it, I would sit with the bottle in front of me and try to talk to her. She never talked back :( False advertising to children is so mean!
