70s Commercials: Burger Chef ‘Star Wars’ Meals, Kitty Litter, Fritos, Weber BBQ (1977-78)

“Collect all seven!”

Here’s a nifty collection of mid-to-late Seventies commercials. From 1978, we have a Burger Chef Star Wars Fun Meals spot and one featuring an animated Kitty Litter mascot (possibly voiced by Pat Harrington). From ’77, there’s spots for Fritos Corn Chips and the Weber BBQ.

I didn’t have access to the Burger Chef chain growing up on the West Coast. Looks like I missed out on some quality Star Wars merch there. I know someone out there still has their Fun Meal toys after all these years. Nice one, kid!
