Wasn't quite what I thought it was ("Wives peak!!") but enjoyed it nevertheless.

Why do they call it Ovaltine?
The mug is round. The jar is round. They should call it Roundtine.

Lovely film though. Sweet looking ladies that were once tough cookies.

Originally called "Ovomaltine", from ovum (egg) + malt, it became "ovaltine" thanks to a typo in a trademark document when it moved from Switzerland to the UK in 1909.

I'll bet this is a great drink to have with tough cookies ;)
