They're GRRREAT!
May 18th, 2007CLICK HERE TO BUY NOW! only $19.95 “They’rrrrrreeeeeeeee, GREAT!” Spoken by the Kellogg creation Tony the Tiger, the exclamation is an iconic American advertising phrase if there ever was one. After hearing it more than a thousand times during the course of our life, we were interested to find out who that voice actually belonged to (sorry, to burst anyone’s bubble, the liger doesn’t exist). It turns out a man with the unbelievable name of Thurl Ravenscroft is who we have to thank. There really aren’t enough words in the English language to describe the greatness of that name. It is so great, we’ve even coined it a catch phrase! Over here at Delight HQ, whenever you see something bizarre, but you absolutely love it, you call it a “Thurl Ravenscroft.” Hence, and appropriately this kitschy classic Tony the Tiger dish set was definitely a “Thurl Ravenscroft.”
Kitchens have long been place of clean, neat lines with uniform plates and perfectly aligned coffee mugs. This isn’t the way of Delight. We want personality, bright colors and humor! We want things no one else has and everyone covets. That is why we love this vintage Tony the Tiger dish set. And Thurl Ravenscroft.
The set includes an extra large coffee mug big enough for the caffeine addicts out there, but not so big it will be mistaken for the bowl. The bowl is a great untraditional shape with extra high edges allowing it to hold quite a bit of whatever you fancy! The set is finished off with a small, rounded plate that will be perfect for your bacon and eggs (or tofu bacon and whey). And remember the next time you sit down to eat breakfast with your vintage Tony the Tiger dish set - even if you’re all alone - you need to say it once, in homage to all that is so classically kitsch in America…THURL RAVENSCROFT! And then, They’rrrrrrrrrreeeeeee GREAT!! Why This Gets The Delight Seal Of Approval: we tested many, to bring you one Delightful Discovery today… - Includes One Ceramic Coffee Mug - One Cereal Bowl - One Small Plate - Delight Tested and Kid Approved! - Great for Anyone You Know That Likes a Bit of Humor With Their Breakfast - Dishwasher and Microwave Safe - Gorgeous Gift Wrapping Available
