So I go to the fridge to pour myself a glass of milk and I notice and advertisement on the top of the milk container. Seriously, an ad for another product seemingly unrelated in any way to milk. The irony is that the ad is for cinnabon, and it’s stuck to a container of skim milk. Skim people. Non-fat. ie: don’t advertise fried dough drowning in sugar on top of non-fat products. I think there’s a class on that very thing in first year deception, I mean, advertising school.

I know the ad is deliberately targeting milk, because its curved to fit nicely on top of the jug. Perhaps I’ll feel so good about my non fat choices that my mind will start wondering about how I might reward myself. I’ll head to the kitchen and gaze into the fridge. Then it will hit me. I must have a cinnabon. I won’t know why really, just a feeling.

Maybe its the fact that a single roll will replace all that fat I missed out on from the gallon of milk. 24 grams to be exact! One can only dream…
