> Bert Appleroth's jelly became so popular that he eventually left his job to start a business in Paddington making Aeroplane Jelly.

> He never looked back.
>
> On Monday, the iconic Aussie brand turned 85, and it remains a familiar fixture on supermarket shelves around the country.
>
> Aeroplane Jelly spawned the catchy "I like Aeroplane Jelly" jingle in 1938, which the makers claim was an unofficial password for Australian soldiers during the Vietnam War.
