In fact, I checked Wikipedia and they confirm this ..
“Um Bongo is particularly famous for its long running jingle of "Um Bongo, Um Bongo, they drink it in the Congo", which accompanied animated television advertisements since 1985. However, Um Bongo has never been produced or sold in either the Republic of the Congo or the Democratic Republic of the Congo.”
Although, hey, anyone can edit Wiki, right? What do they know!?!
Anyway.. what other outright lies have the adverts told us?
Maybe happiness ISN’T a cigar called Hamlet?

"Your Matey isn't a bottle of fun. Its just bath suds...that look suspiciously like fairy liquid.
Except Miss Matey. That looks like hand-wash. "
Wasn't the advert that it cleaned the kids, and bath as well?! |

I ate bowl after bowl of Ready Brek as a kid but never once did I develop a magic glowing, orange aura around my body as was clearly shown on the old adverts when I went to school.
Fucking rip off!  |

Are you sure that Gillette is the best a man can get??
I mean, I'm sure they're good, but when I used my ex's, it didn't give me any better shave than my Sainsburys cheapo razors.... |

The detail they omitted was that the child actor they used lived close to a nuclear power station.

It gets a mention in one of Dom Joly's books I think it's called scary monsters and super creeps.. anyway his quest in monster hunting takes him to the Congo where he apparently asks a waiter for a glass of the said drink..I think all he gets is a confused look.. |
