Honestly, what kind of audience is Budweiser hoping to reach with these ads? The only viewers who might actually care about horse commercials are little girls and horses. Good luck trying to get either one of them to buy a round.
That's a good question to consider while snacking: Am I hungry or am I trying to get arrested?
Statistically speaking, U.S. crime rates have decreased since the 2006introduction of the Blazin' Buffalo & Ranch flavor. Is it possible that a tortilla chip packed with the bold, spicy taste of a chicken wing is responsible for lowering the number of arrests in America? Yes, of course. Anything's possible.
Then why the snowglobe ad? It seems counterintuitive to glorify property damage and assault when the facts suggest that Dorito chips have the power to reduce crime.
Is Doritos trying to create a craving or trying to get you into legal trouble? I have no idea. But people really do love groin jokes, huh?
Jessica Martin grew up on her family’s farm in Brockport, New York. She spent her formative years talking to herself in the mirror and memorizing lines from Full House episodes. She graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in Television, Radio and Film and that proved to be worthwhile in that she still enjoys all of those things. After living in San Francisco, New York, and Boston, Jessica has learned the importance of light layers, irony, and remembering how people take their coffee.
A fortune cookie once told her that she finds beauty in ordinary things, and she liked this. But then another fortune cookie told her that she liked horse racing and gambling, but not to excess, so she’s not entirely sure what to believe. She sort of thinks fortune cookies should stop pretending they know her so well.
Open-Eyed Sneeze is her first book.

I don't know about you, but I was sure salivating for a frosty mug of brew! (what is it about horses or talking frogs that make me want beer???)

I don't want to eat Doritos, but I do want to throw a snowglobe at things. Is Doritos trying to make me hungry or get me arrested?
