Chocapic was launched in France in 1984 by Nestlé as a chocolate flavoured whole grain wheat cereal, and its television adverts made the sung brand name familiar to generations of children. Short clips of the jingle later circulated on soundboards and social video, detached from the original adverts. French viewers in particular share it as childhood nostalgia, while other audiences use it simply as a cheerful, over the top food jingle. Its short, repetitive hook explains why it survives as a meme sound long after the campaigns aired.
