Yeah, and...

So I was watching TV like I always do and I'm wondering if, even with Tivo, I'll still watch commercials. Not only am I constantly thinking "Ma-na-ma-na" but I really enjoy advertizing strategies.

There's a dog food commercial with a dancing dog who's dancing because he really enjoys his dog food. Two guys, one of which is the dog's owner, discuss it. The other guy makes the point that his dog food is nutritious, while the dancing dog's owner say's that's true, but this dog food is also delicious.

Dog food isn't exactly your kid's cereal/bread. I wonder how many people have followed the ad and bought the dog food because they think their dog will like the taste. I've seen dogs eat shit. Literally eat shit. I have never seen a dog reject food beause of it's taste.

On the other hand, perhaps there are some prissy cat-like dogs that will only eat a certain type of food. But if this is the case, I doubt they'd ever dance.
