“If someone throws a pie at you, it's gotta stick. It's gotta be gooey. So you use a whipped cream pie. And if it's shaving cream, you can wipe it off. I can clean up in 14 seconds.”

American comedian and television personality

Soupy Sales, born Milton Supman, was an American comedian, actor, radio and television personality, and jazz enthusiast. He worked across the mid-20th century and became widely known for his children's television presence. He is best remembered for Lunch with Soupy Sales, the comedy series he hosted from 1953 to 1966. The show mixed sketches with a running gag that often ended in a pie to the face, a bit that became his signature. Later, he was a regular panelist on the syndicated revival of What's My Line? from 1968 to 1975, appeared on other game shows, and hosted a radio program on WNBC in New York City during the 1980s.
