Rent the movie "A Christmas Story". In US radio history there was a children's show that gave out secret messages to the kids. The kids had to order a secret decoder ring to decode these "secret messages." Remember it's a kids show - and remember sponsors like their brands remembered.
It was habit in this show to put the sponsor's brand in the secret message. The particular message decoded when the film's protagonist decoded his first secret message with the decoder ring was, you guessed it: "Be sure to drink your ovaltine."
Sorry, but I think I ressurected this phrase a few days ago with this link and this link.
