Here is Part 3 of a long-forgotten Field Communications produced program for kids called Way to Go. This episode (which may infact be the first one) is from 1980. Peter Kastner is the host.
I am pretty sure this was produced at the Field station KBHK-TV Channel 44 in San Francisco.
This program aired on WFLD Channel 32 in Chicago on Sunday mornings at 9:30am in July of 1981 (Thanks, smctopia!) and may have aired at other times too.

Here's another Burger King commercial with future film star Elisabeth Shue, in which she explains that, according to a poll, flame-broiling beats frying by a 3-to-1 ratio - and Burger King does the former.
(Other Burger King commercials with Ms. Shue can be found here and here.)
She can butter my burger any day.
