An Oldie But A Goodie: The Freshmaker

We've been having some serious mid-90s nostalgia all day and what better to revel in the (sort of food related) glories of the era than with our all-time favorite Mentos commercial? We'd be hard pressed to say what makes these thirty seconds so intensely brilliant (is it the overacting? the outfits? the music?), but if we had to name one element, it would probably be the fact that the Mentos woman is popping mints like so many Valium. Delightful!

I'm sorry but that is just not as good as the one where the guy sits on the bench that has just been painted and decides to make his suit striped rather than solid black. Also when the construction workers pick up the lady's car that had been parked in. Really.
