Bags of herbs and spices are set to blow up at the press of a note from producer and [DJ MJ Cole](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-bouillon-room). Food ads, for the most part, aren't the most exciting ads to watch on TV. They do show you the delicious and mouth-watering foods you crave, but outside of that, they often get by on relatively mundane jokes. This ad is very different. The sound of taste is exciting and colorful, and seeks to tie together the multitude of senses that we actually use when eating. The misconception that we only use taste for eating is being laid to rest in this ad, as it shows us that sight and hearing are also big factors. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 22% | Activity: 67% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Viral](https://www.trendhunter.com/viral) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Multisensory Marketing:** Using multiple senses to create a more immersive and engaging experience in advertising campaigns. - **Disruptive Food Ads:** Challenging traditional food advertising by incorporating unexpected elements like explosions and wild visuals. - **Enhanced Sensory Experiences:** Exploring ways to enhance sensory perception during consumption through creative marketing techniques. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Opportunities for food and beverage companies to create unique and attention-grabbing ads that stand out from the competition. - **Advertising and Marketing:** Innovative approaches in advertising campaigns that go beyond traditional methods to capture consumer attention. - **Audiovisual Production:** Demand for creative audiovisual production services to produce visually stunning and audibly engaging ads. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Visually Appealing Food Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taste-our-world.md) - [Quirky Plant-Based Food Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gosh-food.md) - [Multisensory Chocolate Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fortnum-mason-and-otherway.md) - [Breaking News-Styled TV Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tyrrells-chips.md) - [Alternative Butter Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crush-expectations.md) - [Music-Driven Snack Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiktok-experience.md) - [Creative Music-Based Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/music-deserves-bose.md) - [Unusual Fast Food Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/believe-campaign.md) - [High-Frequency Radio Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/morrisons-ad.md)
