| Female Voice | And that was how mama | 0:04 |
| almost became a literary figure. | 0:06 | |
| The next morning, Papa and Dagmar came down | 0:09 | |
| to breakfast early, seems they had a date to do | 0:12 | |
| some sightseeing around San Francisco, | 0:15 | |
| but of course they couldn't possibly leave | 0:17 | |
| until mama helped Dagmar decide which shoes to wear. | 0:20 | |
| And of course she had to help Papa decide | 0:24 | |
| whether to wear his sweater or new jacket. | 0:27 | |
| - | Things haven't changed a bit since mama's day. | 0:31 |
| Women still have so many things to decide, | 0:34 | |
| that it's a real pleasure when the whole family shares | 0:37 | |
| in deciding something, you know, it took no time at all | 0:40 | |
| for my family to decide that Post Grape Nuts is a cereal | 0:43 | |
| we'd always keep on hand. Well we tried different cereals | 0:45 | |
| but we all love Post Grape Nuts. | 0:49 | |
| It's so different from all the other cereals. | 0:51 | |
| Grape nuts are homogenized nuggets of crunchy wheat | 0:53 | |
| and barley, and you can taste the difference too, | 0:56 | |
| a delicious nut like flavor. | 1:00 | |
| That's absolutely wonderful. | 1:02 | |
| And grape nuts are different in the energy they give you, | 1:04 | |
| as it says right here on the box, | 1:07 | |
| grape nuts give you more energy | 1:09 | |
| per spoonful than any other cereal, cold or cooked. | 1:10 | |
| Yes, it's wonderful when your whole family shares | 1:15 | |
| in a decision, when you all come | 1:18 | |
| to a happy agreement and when it comes to breakfast cereal | 1:20 | |
| it's more than just a coincidence | 1:23 | |
| that your family agrees on Post Grape Nuts. | 1:25 | |
| It's one cereal you will all enjoy. | 1:29 |
