Arguably the first commercial jingle in 1923, what product was sold with the lyrics "They're crispy and crunchy, The whole year through, The kiddies never tire of them, and neither will you"?

The early ad for Wheaties as described in The Atlantic: "It was straightforward, and sounded more like a dirge than the upbeat ditties that would come in the following decades. But the promo worked spectacularly, and the jingle made its way around the national market. It was a new way to advertise: The jingle was a natural fit for radio, and later television, both mediums well-suited to audio."
