Charlie The Tuna

Do you remember Charlie the Tuna fish on the Starkist commercials. I remember him from back when I was a . I haven't seen any commercials with him in them in a long while, for a few years it seems anyways. I remember that "Sorry Charlie" sign/line and often used it or heard it at school. I do remember seeing the commercial when my and I were sitting watching TV together and thinking and telling them about how I remember Charlie from when I was a .

I just thought about this when I was making a tuna sandwich earlier today and Charlie on the can with his hat and glasses. I like to put Miracle Whip, diced up black or green olives, cut up pieces of cucumber and my Mothers home made zucchini relish in the mix. Sometimes I put in diced red peppers or slice them up and put them on the tuna mix before putting on the bread with the mustard. Sometimes I put lettuce in there too maybe even tomatoes.

I like to put tuna in my macaroni salad. In fact the ingredient list is similar to the one for my sandwiches. Tuna fish, macaroni, miracle whip, relish, green olives, red peppers, cucumbers, frozen peas, a can of cream of celery soup and sometimes diced or sliced hard boiled eggs. I like a red onion diced up in it also but some people don't so it often gets left out.

Do you do anything with tuna fish?

Do you remember any commercial characters from your childhood?

 We didn't get Charlie the Tuna Fish here, but Top Cat is now appearing in adverts here.
I like tuna and cucumber sandwiches and tuna pasta salad.

I haven't seen Top Cat for a long time.

Tuna and cucumbers are good together.

 I just had tuna salad for lunch today. Miracle Whip, sweet pickle relish, a bit of Dijon, chopped hard boiled eggs. I never thought to put olives in it, and I love both kinds. I'll have to try that. Some of my favorite commercial characters were Speedy Alka-Selzer, he was really funny looking, and the Campbell's Soup kids. Gosh, that takes me back..........lol.

 Tuna's OK but I don't eat a lot of it. One of my favorite commercial cartoon characters was the Hamm's Beer bear.

I don't often have it for sandwiches but like it in my macaroni salad and I do like that a lot especially in the summer.

I've never seen that character before though I think I have heard of Hamm's beer. I think it was from a guy I new from Minnesota when I was in the Air Force.
