Salad bar, catwalk whatever.

It’s Monday. You’re at work. But you’re not at work creating the most ridiculous ad campaign ever. The reason we know that is the most ridiculous ad campaign ever has already been created. And you’re not hard at work modeling a carrot frock. No we’re not psychic, we know you’re not sporting the carrot frock because she is, the one in the carrot hat. Behold, the Wishbone Summer Salad Fashion Show, or How to Scare the Crap out of Your Core Demographic :

The actual fashion show took place in New York at Grand Central terminal last Thursday but you can still join in by participating in many other scary salad activities. There is a salad therapist who will talk you off of the lettuce ledge and you can pretend to spritz salad dressing on a lettuce leaf and read it like an ink blot test. Ooooh fun!

See, he’s like the Dr. Phil of the internet, only without the Oprah endorsement. Oh and add lettuce.

It’s so bad. We are speechless. The end.

“The reason we know that is the most ridiculous ad campaign ever has already been created.” No, I don’t think my campaign would be nearly as created as your campaign. I think salad runway show is really cool. I don’t see any designers using salad in their shows. I really like the carrot and tomato outfit. I really enjoyed the article and would love to catch some salad events.
