 * Merge to the Ovaltine article, nothing notable about this otherwise. Oaktree b (talk) 22:06, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge into Ovaltine It was a popular product at the time (it did share the name of a popular game show of the time), but was de facto replaced by Ovaltine's 'rich chocolate' version over time based on brand recognition.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 00:19, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge is the right ATD for now. Undoubtedly this would pass GNG given enough crawling through dead tree papers, but it's monotonous work sifting through advertisements to find the few actual reviews of the product, so I'll hope we one day have better tools for that. &mdash;siro&chi;o 06:56, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge Given only electronic sources for an item that disappeared more than twenty years before the Internet, notability has been shown. I agree with siro, above, that paper research would yield dividends, but since the article is so short, I see no problem with a merger, and it would not unduly distort the Ovaltine article. --Bejnar (talk) 14:45, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge (selectively and without prejudice) into Ovaltine. We should merge mostly the sources. Whether notable or not, the text is too short for a SPINOFF. gidonb (talk) 21:13, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge into Ovaltine per above. - Indefensible (talk) 05:16, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Merge given that PDQ Chocolate was a product line manufactured by Ovaltine, merging the PDQ Chocolate page into the Ovaltine main page would be a good decision. Emma so Bergst222 (talk) 19:15, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
