Putting the Pop in Snap, Crackle, Pop


Even though it's not unusual for songs by sacred icons like the Stones and the Beatles – even Bob Dylan – to be heard hawking products on television these days, it was rare in 1963. And even now it's not kosher for a band to actually compose a jingle for a commercial, which is what the Rolling Stones did back then.
