While Hardee’s went with an overly sultry and sexy vibe with the Padma Lakshmi commercial, Quiznos goes for a playful suggestive affair between Scott the sandwich maker and the Quiznos talking toaster.
You have to watch the commercial. I just can't get over the Quiznos talking toaster telling Scott, "Put it in me!"
Even the name of the new sandwich, the Toasty Torpedo, is full of suggestion. I applaud Quiznos for the self-deprecation and for going the extra mile.
