Imperial margarine
Imperial is a brand of margarine distributed by Unilever. It is best remembered for television commercials in which a person who recently ate something with Imperial margarine would suddenly have a crown appear on their head (accompanied by a four note fanfare).[1][2][3][4]
The commercials inspired sporadic cultural references throughout the years. The commercials were spoofed in episodes of The Carol Burnett Show, Green Acres, and Parker Lewis Can't Lose. On a 1982 episode of Georgia Championship Wrestling, wrestler "Rowdy" Roddy Piper gave an interview wherein he mentioned Imperial Margarine by name in the course of mocking his opponent.[5][6]
