- Weird History Food is going to get you into the Strangest Food Marketing Campaigns. Commercials and ads are no longer enough in a world habituated to shift its attention in the first three seconds of watching videos. Many companies have ditched standard marketing campaigns for the unconventional, relying on surprise experiences to create buzz, drive publicity, and increase revenue.

Crazy to believe Colgate made TV Dinners at one point
I can't believe Gerber made adult baby food😖🤢😵
they didn't. It was a joke, that everyone thinks is real now lol
I like jimmy Johnson and kyle busch.
I mean...The Wizard was a pretty shameless pitch by Nintendo as a movie. But Mac and Me didn't even TRY to hide their McMarketing scheme
The difference is that the Wizard is a decent movie
The Wizard was also a Universal Studios commercial considering the entire third act takes place there. Still, great movie.
"It was only a matter of time before one of Americas pizza chains tried to ride those coat tails" - As if Dominos wasnt in the first 10 seconds of the first TMNT movie....
Pizza Hut and Domino's competed to get both the marketing and product placement. Domino's got the product placement because of their "30 minutes or less" gimmick. While Pizza Hut got the marketing gig, which is why Coming Out of Our Shells happened alongside a commercial featured on the film's original VHS release.
And they made a joke about "coat shells" when all turtles have tails. Must've been a slow day.
It is a fact that if a video talks about Mac & Me they have to include the kid over the cliff, it's a must and one reason why I love the internet
I literally just realized it’s named after McDonald’s.
Gerber Singles have to have been the source of the idea for "Bachelor Chow (now with flavor)" from Futurama.
my autism used to make this really hard, just because it was a new voice, but i’m so grateful you’ve stuck around despite the nastiness. you’re wonderful.
Is that really a symptom of autism? I take changes very personally for no good reason. I might have to go and have a screening.
"Difficulties with change and uncertainty are not specific to autism, but research suggests that many autistic people find uncertain situations particularly difficult, and very likely to cause anxiety."
Autism isn't a personality.

Routine, Regime & Familiarity are what we are naturally inclined to and often better at maintaining than typicals.
Drawback is mild-to-extremely severe increased sensitivity to many kinds of change. Reactions can be anything from trouble adapting/transitioning, emotional discomfort, to anxiety, to contributing a shut down, to feelings that mimic grief if there was emotional attachment to what was lost/changed, and maladaptive coping mechanism like a stint of denial/refusing to acknowledge the change
Adjusting to this voice was a bit hard for me, not simply because it was a change but i found the male narrators voice more obviously expressive/animated _(which probably means it’s likely some Neurotypicals think he comparatively sounds _*_over_*_ expressive or forced at some points by comparison)_ and more comforting to listen to. After I stopped watching for a couple months then came back and rewatched the newer videos as a reintroduction i was perfectly fine with her voice
@@JellyFilledEmpanadait depends on the type of change. I have 0 issue with the fact there’s two narrators. Someone else might have some difficulty adjusting. Every person is DIFFERENT.
I remember around the time of the green and purple ketchup, you could also get pink and blue margarine in a squeeze bottle, for that buttery fun that kids love
I think the brand that did that was Parkay? correct me if im wrong
@@Jroll-gn9tz probably. I just googled pakay and blue butter and it pulled up Parkay Fun Squeeze. Maybe pink and blue wasn’t risky enough for wacky food fun time
I'll be honest, out of all the commercials, I only liked Heart Attack Grill. And the fact that it exists in the first place. "Hey, do you want to act like a cartoon character in a food binge but with realistic and most likely deadly consequence? Come to our restaurant!"
i'd Avoid that place at all cost myself!
Such weird food products that came out! Would love to see a part 2 to this video
I love that Heart Attack Grill exists. They are not misleading or lying about their food. The fact is, the people who go there go there KNOWING the risks and not being fooled by marketing. Think of how many fats and hidden preservatives are in fast food salads. How about how much sodium is really in all those meat alternatives? A lot of people try to eat healthy but still struggle because of false advertising.
The Heart Attack Grill SAYS they are unhealthy so the consequence is truly, fully on the consumer for their own consumption.
A+ video!
Fascinating marketing campaigns, they can come up with some very original ideas!
A more interesting aspect of the heart attack grill was completely missed. It started here in Tempe then moved after it was told it couldn't use the red cross as people would apparently think it was a legit medical facility. They also cook in 100% lard, dont have diet sodas and sell cigarettes and alcohol. Man I miss that place!
Oh, I thought it was still going
..had some friends who said it was a really fun theme restaurant... wish I could have eaten there.... Carpe Viva
Pretty sure it's still around in Vegas lol.
@@RedRoseSeptember22damn
I recall hearing that it's a war crime to use the red cross on amything if you agent actually involved in providing medical aid(i wanna say you have to be part of a specific organization)
There was some blink 182 album that had to change their cover art because of this, making the original(a nurse with a red cross on her hat) album art a rare collectors item.
Colgate Dinners is actually a genius idea, first people eat the dinner, then they have to brush their teeth with Colgate Toothpaste. I'm neutral on Domino's Mind Ordering promotion, but I ADORE how they brought back the 80s logo and designs. I also see The Noid, and I'm hoping for a full video on the history of Domino's Pizza. Please mention the other Domino's Pizza mascots like Donny & Dottie Domino [there was actually a lawsuit over Donny: Ollie Vs Domino's Pizza Inc], and Bad Andy [who actually drove sales down!].
The problem is this video is so poorly fact-checked they didn't bother to see that it never existed - this listicle is just reading off articles from the Musuem of Failures almost verbatim without realising that the Musuem of Failures is a mix of real-world stories and satire. This one (the Colgate Frozen Dinner) is satire.
There's apparently a museum of failed food items. One of the items are called "Toaster Omelettes".
Jennifer Anistons first movie was Leprechaun.
Courtney Coxs was HeMan.
Paul Rudd also used the movie “Mac and Me” to continually prank Conan O’Brien whenever he guest on the late night talk show going from 2004 all the way to Conan’s podcast in 2022
I love when he did it on the podcast. Paul makes ip a story of doing a big long story driven murder mystery podcast he is promoting then plays the clip and Conan loses it. The five minute discussion Paul had about a murder mystery podcast story was a lie. He came up with that on the spot just to troll Conan. Gotta love Paul Rudd.
Not just Conab O'Brien, but most talk shows.
"...Mac and Me star Jennifer Aniston"
If I'm ever speaking with someone and they mention JA, I'm gonna say, "Oh yeah, the girl from Mac and Me."
The thing with Mac and Me is that it is on so many lists that it gets talked about all the time in videos. Which brings up McDonalds and puts the word in peoples heads.
Let's be honest: A place like the Heart Attack Grill was going to exist no matter what.
"Guys, we are constantly being bombarded with people and ads telling us how we can and cannot eat, and just once...just ONCE...I would like to eat something I can actually enjoy without some schmuck telling me all the things about it that's bad for me. I mean, it's a frickin' hamburger, I KNOW it's bad for me! So, I say let's make some place where we can have food that tastes great and to heck with healthy bullcrap and let us enjoy it for (BLEEP) sake!!!"
The owner of that place has some guts admitting all things that were said to him during that interview like he is some well hidden sigma.
Jennifer Aniston was an uncredited extra in Mac and me. Her real breakout role was Leprechaun.
Uhhh did we forget Jennifer Anistons first movie was Leprechaun? A movie people regularly still watch?
The Subservient Chicken campaign was unique, spent lots of time telling that chicken what to do 😆
Heart attack grill is a place you go to on a dare.
Well then you might be charged with attempted murder
Watching the snippet of the quack restaurant owner was some surreal shit.
Onyx the Fortuitous featured in the Arby’s section? Very trippy to see.
That dude is hilarious 😂 idonno.
I still haven't seen his movie tho.
Do you think companies resort to bizarre marketing tactics because it's effective or just to grab attention in a crowded market? i think both sometimes...
0:47 LOVE Snapple, used to have it all the time!
My favorite (at the time) was Mango Madness.
Who tf tries to break the largest popsicle record furing summer? Tf you expect to happen 😂
I practically wore out my Coming Out Of Their Shells cassette tape when I was a kid playing it so much.
Pineapple on pizza is delish. I said what I said.
I need a video on the history of the Flamin Hot brand of chips 😅
I can’t believe someone actually had a heart attack at the heart attack grill 😂😢
Dang they really did get nuts 😂
That Mac alien is the stuff of nightmares.
E.t. was wayyy creepier. Neck stretching and glowy fingers.
11:20 Skittles were released in 1979 in North America.
My graduating high school class wore rainbow colors for our graduation, that should be one of our class candies!
2:59 Used to have the "Coming Out Of Their Shells" tape, LOVED IT!
For Request Fridays in music class, I would consistently request "Count On Us" from this album, it was the last song.
Shedder singing about how much he hates music was peak irony.
@@SomeOrangeCat In reference to your username, I just went to see my orange cat (her name is Ginger Spice).
@@SomeOrangeCat I think I vaguely remember how Shreddar wanted to destroy all the music in the world to kill all hope...
@@btetschner It was a silly musical, but part of it lived on in the second TMNT arcade game where they sampled "Pizza Power" as the themesong.
@@SomeOrangeCat Those arcade games are THE BOMB!
The butterfat milkshakes at the Heart Attack Grill are to die for!
Literally????
@@kaykarahalis829 yes
i forgot Amazon was once a online book store
The Colgate dinners (lasagna package) are actually mockups and are not real. However, someone did do the digging work, and sometimes around 1960, there was an interview in a magazine with the CEO of Colgate, who wanted to enter the frozen or snack foods market as a way of testing out different revenue streams. They tried some snacks out in Milwaukee iirc, but it only lasted like 6 months.
I loved Doritos Hotel 626! I wish they kept the website up or had some sort of way to keep it alive.
0:08 I remember that Red Bull commercial, I think he was yelling out "Cold as Hell!"
Sup bot
im happy you included EZ Squeeze
(5:15) - Jennifer Aniston was not the star of MAC & ME ... she is barely visible in the movie. LOL
I remember the Carl's Jr. Burger ad that was made to look like a "slasher film" that was pretty weird.
good video
9:41 The computer game Hotel 626 looks awesome!
I remember loving the TMNT music from Pizza Hut.
Wake up babe, new weird history food video just dropped!
why is this titled "The Strangest Foods Companies Have Ever Made" when the video is about marketing? you done messed up the title!
@7:24
Hey! There's nothing wrong about pineapples on a pizza.
Man, i remember that a corn chip company created a crop circle to promote the chip - by having a kid comparing a chip's shape to the circles
That Ninja turtle coming out of our shell album was a banger
"Pizza Hut.. we belong in a sewer."
I dunno... seems pretty on brand to me.
I wonder if anyone remembers this...On the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles VHS, Pizza Hut had a little league baseball commercial in the beginning. Then somehow Domino's ended up with the greatest pizza placement in the movie of all time! "122 and an 8, where the heck is 122 and an 8?" "You're standing on it dude!" Everybody knows the rules 🍕🐢🐢🐢🐢
That's why I play right field, it's important ya know?
Ya gotta learn how ta catch, ya gotta learn how ta throw.
Lmao I played left and was the same age at the time. My cousin and I saw the movie when it came out as kids, then after were looking down the sewer drains to see them on a rainy night. 30 years later we went to see the theatrical anniversary release together. Nostalgia to no end. @@blackmesacake5361
I clicked on this video for: strangest foods companies have ever made.
Anybody else remember the Doritos ads pre pandemic??
Dominos giving away the telepathy secrets
Did anyone else's mom take one look at the green ketchup and refuse point blank on stain grounds?
Can you do a video on Capn Ds and long john silvers pls
In reference to Eleven from Stranger Things, one of the two highways going through my hometown of Burwell, Nebraska is Highway 11.
0:14 Both Steve-O and the taping to the wall gag were on REACT videos the other day, one for Wild Boys and the other for Internet's Dumbest Videos.
1:30 McDonald's should promote Mac (from Mac and Me) as one of their characters.
Then they can embrace their film as part of their character's history.
you forgot that they wore the Mcdonlds clothing "McKids" in the movie Mac and me as well
i only remember the BK Cologne
those heart attack burgers look like grey goop 🤢🤮
Skittles also made a fantasy game on the PS2 or Gamecube. Very little to do with actual skittles.
I dont remember mac and me movie.
TMNT i remember, but im vague on the pizza music. We didnt have a pizza hut near us.
I never saw colgate dinners.
Colgate hands down was the nastiest thing on this menu.
Mac and me is one of paul rudd's greatest role.
I would eat at Arby’s if they brought this back!
Pizza Hut 🤔 did you not see the first TMNT movies where the pizza was delivered by Dominos🙂. Mac & Me on Mystery Science Theater 3000 was the first time I've seen that movie since I was a kid, "Pretty nice" lol 😄
3:15 No, that 🐛 is going to be stuck in my head for days, oh WAIT, OH GOD! 🧠
9:57 For anyone that has already had a death experience, they should say YOLT (You Only Live Twice).
Turtle power! 🐢 💥 🥷
Pizza Hut? Well, the turtles picked a good one at first but when PH changed their sauce, crust and method they make it up they sucked.
No mention of Paul Rudd with Mac and Me?!?
Blessings in an abundance of the faith. I salute you. 😘🙏Grace and peace be unto you and to this place. God bless you. 🤍🌈🤍Thank you. Will you believe and receive Jesus Christ as your LORD and personal saviour??? I do. 😊
I was born in 1998 and one of my earlier memories is eating blue ketchup and it turned my poo blue
I always felt that Mac and Me alien thing was the worst looking thing ever. I hated that movie.
How do I see the skittles play
All you got to do to smell like Burger King is work at Burger King. It permeates the skin. You'll smell like Burger King forever.
As opposed to 1800 HLP MEET, the Christian dating line to find a godly spouse.
I liked eating Gerber plum baby food as a teen.
I dont think they sell anymore.
I F'n Love Mac & Me
I remember the nasty purple ketchup. Did not taste like ketchup, just sadness.
Mac and Me is literally named after McDonald’s. 🤦
Mac and Me will only ever always be connected to Paul Rudd.
Pharrells' ten gallon Mountie hat that he shaped sitting on it was probably one of the goofiest looking pieces of cr@p a person ever put on their head without it actually being a piece of real shït.
I loved, LOVED the colored ketchups. Bought nothing BUT those while they were on the shelves.
My family HATED it. XD
The BK fragrance.
Not one mention of Quizno's Spong Monkies?
The promotion wasn't weird enough
Mac and Me is great...it's definitely a cult classic.
These foods are weird, man
Awwwww man, I remember EZ Squirt! It was actually good 😅
When I saw the title Mac and me, I thought it was going to be about a guy and his crazy obsession with mac and cheese. I was really disappointed when I saw what it was actually about. Still that could be a funny idea for a movie, something in the vein of Harold and Kumar go to White Castle, but instead of burgers the two stoners are trying to find a store which has boxes of Kraft mac and cheese in stock to solve their munchies.
7:35 - Bachelor Chow!
The unrushed delivery of the script is much easier on the ears.
Arby's has no Twice sold Dungeons & Dragons dice.
Ok but the list is “craziest foods” made by companies so why is the Mac and me one in there? That’s not a food it was just product placement
I vividly remember going through many bottles of blue and green EZ Squirts when I was a kid back when I put ketchup on EVERYTHING, couldn't remember for the life of my what they were called and none of my friends knew they were even a thing.
