Graffiti 360

In a world controlled by industry and the machine, this blog observes and critiques the world's true graffiti problem, which is advertising and marketing. From time to time, I'll also talk about art and interactive media. Or whatever else I feel like.

Nestle is Trying to Kill Our Kids!

Okay, Vodafone isn't really trying to kill brits, their commercial is just weird, but this one is legit. Nestle Nesquik is putting out this new :30 spot that basically is telling kids that if they don't like their veggies (like every normal kid), then they should wine and cry to their parents to get them some Nesquik Chocolate Milk cause it's a perfect swap for those nutritional, but ickie vegeatables. Hats off to Nesquik for telling our kids that chocolate milk is a good substitute for vegeatables. OH WAIT! It has 25% less sugar now! So the difference between a healthy meal and a treat is 25% less sugar. What Nestle isn't telling you is that the Nesquik Chocolate No Sugar Added brand has 3g of extra milk sugar and an extra 40 calories. And the more traditional varieties can add up to 18g of sugar and 90 calories per serving, which more than doubles the amount of calories that you would get from just the glass of milk.
Keep in mind that the no sugar added varieties use artificial sweeteners. Check out the commercial below -
