Magnolia Ice Cream Is Undeniably A Classic

Magnolia Chocolait, Magnolia Ice Cream, Magnolia Butter, Magnolia plant near St. Paul--you name it, I like(d) it. Darn the first mention is the tear-jerker of all Magnolia products I used to consume. Who didn't love the chocolate milk that came in glass bottles? I am wishing I saved some of those bottles for memorabilia.

Same goes for this Irish Classic-flavoured Magnolia Ice Cream. So they say it's exquisitely brewed. Well, I think from years of eating ice cream, I've realized that as long as it's coffee flavoured, then nothing could go wrong.




By now, a lot of you would have realized that to create this naturally-looking ice cream that didn't melt in intense heat of studio lights, people from ad agencies had to rely on what they call food styling--essentially making fake food look darn real. So this ice cream probably was mashed potatoes in real life. But I must admit--again with little editing, they made the print out stand out in a cluttered world of black-text-on-gray-paper.

Great great work, truly exquisite :)

EXQUISITELY BREWED
New! Irish Coffee Classic
Special coffee ice cream blended with Irish cream liqueur and rippled with coffee syrup. In a flavor duet with rich, rich cream-based ice cream lavishly laced with chocolate-coated butter cookies and chocolated coated marshmallows. Try it and brew up a passion.
Definitely, among the world's best tasting ice creams.

This Was The Way To Advertise Cooking Oil...

...S'yempre pa, Minola! (note the apostrophe, boys and girls...few people write that word that way, astig :p )

Can you see the healthy, wide-eyed omigosh-this-ad-is-gonna-make-me-famous look of the cute girl don in a semi-hawaiian look who's probably in her late 20s right now? She's a good testimony for all that wellness that comes with Minola cooking oil right after deep frying a whole batch of breaded chicken with it. :-)

See, it was that simple. But I believe it was the darn prawns that convinced me flat. Hehe.
