Make sure you know where your People Magazine has been. We’re seeing the next generation of food product advertising: lickable ads.
Welch’s Grape Juice brand is one of the first companies to work with First Flavor, a small, privately held company that has developed this technology.
I actually saw this ad just this morning while in a waiting room, and did a double take when I saw “Lick”…to think that someone else could have broken the seal. As a story in the Wall Street Journal says, it could just as easily become “ick.” Eeewwww, but still, adding scents and tastes to get your attention is a trend that we are seeing more and more. I am curious…who knows what the next lickable ad will be?
If this has whetted your appetite for grape juice, try Welch’s recipes!
