Well, sad to say I didn't find it....but I tried my best with me being over in Romania for a little bit. Maybe when I get back stateside I can do some hardcore research but he is what I got. This is a copy and paste from my email (I added "friend" and the last part to really drive home the email" hope it's ok....

Hello,
I am writing to seek help as a friend has challenged me to find a beloved strawberry quik land TV spot from the early 90s. The original is on YouTube but the strawberry version is not and would ask if it possible to view it anywhere. I do not want to post it on any site such as YouTube just to win a small quest by a friend to relive a long ago memory.  Thanks and just so you know he supports you almost every day with a glass....



I appreciate the effort, man. I really do.  :clap:  I did the same thing as well, so I'm familiar with Nestle's business-like reply lol.

I emailed Nestle once asking them to bring back the Alpine White candy bar.... no luck :(  Dat white chocolate and almond tho...


I remember calling Hostess and asking them to bring back Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle pies. When they said that the license to use TMNT had run out, I immediately suggested just making a vanilla pudding pie without them. I didn't eat the damn things cause of some turtles, I ate them b/c they were f*cking GOOD.



Well, I guess I need to get a VCR and go through my old taped cartoons from childhood, maybe I can dig it up.. what are the chances lol. I remember the ad, so maybe it is on one of the tapes. Ninja Turtle cartoon show, here I come.


That's pretty much what I thought it would come down to.
My past-life would've surely led to our demise, and I had left it not a moment too soon. Our escape, though dangerous, had gone well. The train ride, sunlight, and passing snow-covered pine trees came together in a flickering show of our bright, new future together. Her head rested on my shoulder as she soundly slept to the gentle rocking of the passenger car. We felt freedom. We felt peace.

Sorry man, I searched my ass off to no avail.  Is this commercial the same except with a pink river instead of a brown one?  Or different?  Anyway, good luck finding it.

I think I've used my TurboTap a grand total of once.  Thing about TurboTaps is that they require friends. 

As Mika Hakkinen would say: So sad...

Well, if anyone is in the Baltimore area I'd be up for some multiplayer turbo sometime.  Last time I had a tap was in the 90's for my original TG-16, I don't think I used it a whole lot, maybe for 2 player Dungeon Explorer a couple of times.

You sure it's not the same commercial, because at the end it looks like a strawberry can.
