I don't mean like scams or anything like that. I mean what's the ad that has done the worst job as an advertisement? Instead of making you want to buy the product you wanted to avoid it.

Every 90s ad looked (almost) like this. At least in my country. Cringe times.

We might not live far away... this one was the cringiest to be honest, the others ones, not as much. But this... I do eat margarine, but after seing this, I never even thought about buying Rama ever again, though it has crossed my mind before I saw this ad.

It seems weird the whole family is going nuts over margarine. And a whole lot of it too.

It's a cultural thing, it's like butter in the Balkans. Why is butter not as popular? Because it's a lot more expensive 🤷. People have historically been fairly poor around here.
