Sweet Vegetables!

Can you guess where this is from?!?!
Oh...when I saw this, I just had to take a picture! I am obsessed with getting my daughter McKenna to eat her vegetables, what a great idea to promote them! I've seen the Hidden Valley commercials before--how the ice cream man drives around town- all the kids running to him- to get their salad in cones, their carrots in cups, and their broccoli on popsicle sticks....Broccoli now comes in the form of a cupcake, which is even SWEETER! The artistic balance of this add is great! I love how much simple creativity is used to sell something that tastes, well...you know what i mean--DULL! Don't get me wrong, I love broccoli...but other's (ALOT OTHERS) beg to differ! The style of the design, like I said is simple, but speaks an endless amount of words like "don't you just want to try one?"
I decided to take separate pictures of this ad, just so you can see how great of an ad it really is!! Above is the text that is at the bottom of the ad. It has the Hidden Valley bottle of ranch...and it states in all caps how it "MAKES VEGETABLES DELECTABLE".  I thought it was pretty appropriate to put the words at the bottom, declaring that the broccoli was delectable without having to take over the whole add. It is subtle and very true about the product that they are trying to sell, which isn't the broccoli, it's the RANCH!! Yes! But why not buy some Ranch to make those dull tasting stalks delectable and delightful!!
