Heinz soup a dayWhen I was a toddler during the early 1970s, there was an advert extolling the health benefits of eating Heinz soup with the catchy lyrics:
Heinz soup a day
Heinz soup a day
Heinz soup a day
etc
So, I'd be sitting in my high chair, a plate of food in front of me, saying "I'm not eating this shit mother, fetch me something decent and be quick about it". She would LIE and tell me that it was "Heinz soup a day" and I would gobble it all up double quick.
She pulled the same stunt as a young woman working as a nanny, told the posh kid that parsnips were "white carrots" in order to get him to eat them. I didn't fall for that one, parsnips are evil.

It's actually 'Heinz superday'as the idea is that any day where you have Heinz soup is 'super'.
