Below, I have re-posted 10 "Rules" of the 1972 WW Program (from a previous post). Eight of them are actual rules and two of them are totally fabricated by me, and have absolutely no validity. Before revealing the answers, I wanted to put these out there one more time--just in case you missed it.
Can you spot the phony WW rules? (Insert cheesy 1970's game show music here.)
- You may have bread at meal-time only
- Sardines are strictly prohibited
- You must eat liver exactly once per week
- No more than 6 ounces of coffee per day may be consumed
- You may eat frog's legs 5 times per week, if desired
- A banana can only be eaten one time per week
- Eggs may NEVER be eaten for dinner
- Mustard is permitted in unlimited amounts
- Mayonnaise, oil or margarine must always be spread with a knife or spatula -- never brushed on
- A cup of bouillon must be consumed before every meal
BONUS ROUND: Who can tell me the name of the famous game show personality pictured here? HINT: He was best friends with Jean Nidetch. (True story.)

Match Game's own Charles Nelson Riley--I think he might have been the original Big Fig Newton too but I may have dreamed that.
I'm guessing the Mimi-isms are the frog legs and coffee. I bet those chickies drank a lot of coffee.
