    It has been several generations since cigarette commercials appeared on TV and Radio here in the United States. An act of Congress bannned them back in 1970. But, I’m so old, I remember when they were around in proliferation. This morning, quite randomly, a memory swam up into my consciousness, dating from, as best I recall, from kindergarten days, riding the bus to school, and a bunch of us belting out Winstons taste good like a cigarette should.

      @Thumper1964 "Gogd" and "should" don't look as though they rhymed, but English orthography has little rhyme. But why "like" rather than "as"?
      I do remember the jingle using "Winston" and "tastes," rather than the plural.
