Reminds me of a passage in Beverly Cleary’s (still kicking at 101!) 1954 classic, “Henry & Ribsy”
“Before Henry thought of anything interesting to do, the radio announcer finished the news and four men began to sing. Henry, who heard this commercial every Saturday, sang with them: “Woofies Dog Food is the best, Contains more meat than all the rest. So buy your dog a can today, and watch it chase his blues away! Woof, woof, woof, Woofies!” Then the sound of a dog barking came out of the radio. “R-r-r-wuf!” said Ribsy, looking at the radio.”

The thought of generic “brand x” dog food strikes terrier in his heart!
