Production notes

A moral tale, promoting Stokely Van Camp foods, which is distinguished by its lavish production values. As good as anything Harman did at MGM, this short contains ADULT SEXUAL INNUENDO and lots of campy laughs. Intercut with promotional scenes to sell canned goods to grocery stores, and doubtless a huge hit at grocery-store retailers' conventions.
