In 2004, McDonald's in the UK made a few television advertisements for kids to keep healthy. This would feature the character of Ronald McDonald and a few creatures called the YumChums.

Lost Adverts/Lyrics

These series of adverts go like this: It would show Ronald McDonald at a gym, and then it would show what is inside his stomach, pitch black with cartoon-like eyes saying if they're ready. It would suddenly fade into a colorful environment with the YumChum gang:

  • A purple blobby character who has a skateboard.
  • A female character who has a swirly tail and likes dancing.
  • A small, smart green creature with glasses.
  • A big, spherical brown hairy monster.
  • A small, blue bouncy ball like creature with a baseball cap.

All these characters would sing about the joy of being healthy and they would sing one of these songs.

What could be a possible screenshot from the 5 a day ad.

Five-A-Day

"Don't let your YumChums get glum, put healthly stuff in your tum! Think about the things you eat, don't give us toooo many treats! Run about, jump around and play and you will feel yummy everyday.

We're looking for our veggies, 5 a day is what we need. We've got to have our veggies today, hey hey!

We're feeling kinda fruity, come on now be good to me! We've got to have'em all to play, hey hey!

We're looking for our veggies, 5 a day is what we need. We've got to have our veggies today, hey hey!

5, gimme 5. Gimme gimme gimme 5-a-day! 5, gimme 5. Gimme gimme gimme 5-a-day!

We're feeling kinda fruity, come on now be good to me! We've got to have'em all to play, hey hey HEY!"
