Gross is good
Article Abstract:
McCain Foods Ltd reported that its share of Canada's pizza snacks market rose to 37% when it unveiled its new TV spot. Previously, McCain relied on beauty shot ads aimed at mothers but was forced to abandon this advertising strategy due to the success of 'More Stuff' ads from rival Pizza Pops. Its latest TV commercial uses real teenage language with pierced male teenagers loitering around cars. The success of the ad has spurred McCain to create other commercials for its Ultimate Combo and Triple X Pepperoni products.
