I couldn't decide whether to put this here or in Television, so move it if you want, Ruumeister! Does anyone remember an ad from about 2001, with the catchphrase "Squeeze it like you love it!", said by a big black guy? I think it may have been set in the 70's or something, because I seem to remember him wearing some crazy…

Its good here. I think you are talking about Ribena that was in those squeezable packages. He had some wacky purple suit, wasn't it? *goes looking for ad*
