From Kiplinger's Personal Finance, July 1969:

Spicy Stan. Mad adman Stan Freberg, creator of some of the most imaginative ads around (Chun King, Jeno's Pizza, Sunsweet Prunes) has just opened his own ad agency because that's where the real money is. Freberg groped around for a name and finally decided on "Thyme, Inc. (A Division of Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Osborne)." Did the real Time, Inc., take umbrage at this? Not really. But a spokesman for Time announced, straight-faced, that Harry Oregano, a partner in the law firm of Basil, Bayleaf, Clove, Cumin & Dill, would check into Thyme, Inc.
