Se alkoi Bostonista ... Ruokajuomaksi Triopils
"It begun with Boston ... Boston is present wherever there is action. When two persons meet the converstation will begin with the words 'Yes, Boston'. Whenever two hearts kindle, two Bostons will catch fire ...". Although I'm a social smoker myself this advertisement really stunned me with it's sillyness. Cigarette advertisement has been forbidden in Finland since 1978 ... but still ... every Finn must know the main sponsor of Team MacLaren F1.
"TrioPils as an eating beverage". The food looks delicious, but why would anyone want to dine alone like the chap in the picture, or more important, why do they bother to advertise alcohol free beer? Probably beacause it's so hard to get it sold and because it was illegal to advertise alcoholic beverages 1973-95 in Finland. Nowadays you can freely promote beer but we Finns still can't access the home page of Finlandia Vodka ...

Kesän herkut ovat namia "The aestival delicacies are 'goodies'" ... Säile, the natural preservative doesn't give any extra flavours and guarantees preservation in poor conditions. In the pic: While the illiterate mom is trying to dechipher the intructions of Säile the pitiful infants are eating all the 'goodies'. A better preservative would've been a spoonfull of Peter Möller's Cod Liver Oil = a stupid cliché ...
Yes, Sir! Do I want to suffer more?

Please do not smudge my Guestbook.
