Answer 3

It's based on a famous comic strip of the 50s and 60s.

Abner is the best looking, and strongest guy in Dogpatch USA, and pretty tall too considering his relatively short parents, Mammy and Pappy Yokum.  Daisy Mae Scraggs is absolutely in love with him, but he has no interest in romance... he'd rather fish.  Their representative in the US Congress, Senator Fogbound, comes to town one day to tell the residents of Dogpatch that he found a way to put them on the map... Dogpatch has been labelled as the most un-neccessary place in the whole USA.  So much so, that it is declared as the next nuclear test site.  Surely there must be something in Dogpatch that is neccessary.  And there is!  It is Mammy Yokum's own Yokum-berry tonic that she has given to Abner every day since he was born... It's the tonic that has caused him to grow to great heights, and become extremely handsome and strong.  When it is tried on one of the scrawniest men in town, he is instantly transformed into a tall, handsome, and strong specimen of manhood.  When evil business man General Bullmoose learns of this amazing tonic, he tries to acquire all the rights to it by any means possible.  There's just one problem with Yokum-berry tonic... it makes the drinker lose all interest in romance.  The town is ultimately saved when a plaque is discovered declaring that its local hero, the Confederate General Jubilation T. Cornpone was, by virtue of his incompetence, so instrumental in the defeat of his own army as to be a hero of the Republic.
