    What did Arte Johnson's "Laugh-In" character Tyrone Horneigh mean when he spoke of "walnettos"?

    Remember the Artie Johnson - Ruth Buzzi skit on the TV show Laugh-in... "Want a Walnetto?" It seems that the Walnetto company was nearly out of business and this skit, often repeated on the show, revived interest in the candy and it is still available today.
