Sexy Advertising in Food

April 29, 2011

It's hardly a news flash that sex sells products. Television frequently features sexy images in commercials and TV programs in order to persuade customers to purchase products. This advertisement just appeared for chocolate company Zokoko. I think you'll be able to spot the not-so-subtly hidden sexual messages.

The advertisement reminds me of this advertisement for Carl's Jr. that aired a couple of years ago, featuring Top Chef Host Padma Lakshmi. Again, see if you can spot the sexual undertones. They should be pretty easy to find.

What do you think of these advertisements? Do they go to far? Do they make you want to purchase the food?
