The main advertising thrust for Marmite for a few years, has been that people either love it or hate it, hence "Summer of Love/Hate".

Ah, got it. I've never been a fan of the "if you don't like our product, then fuck you" school of advertising, but it apparently works well enough for those companies that try it, so ...

It works for Marmite because you either love it or hate it, and I imagine if you love it, you're addicted.

Like those Dr. Pepper 10-calorie ads with their tongue-in-cheek uber masculine, "not for women" (except Serena :? ). I can't figure out why it appeals to anyone, but they keep running it so it must work.

It seems pretty silly, but it looks like they're after the men who wouldn't drink a diet drink because it's "too feminine". Of course stereotypical men won't go to the doctor either, so I doubt they would drink something called Dr. anything. :D

If you hold the CTRL key while spinning the wheel on your mouse, you can zoom the image in or out which will let you see the whole image. To return to the normal screen size hold the CTRL key and hit the "zero" key.


You're welcome :mrgreen:
