“You can’t drink lasagna—CAUSE IT DOESN’T HAVE DRINKABILITY!!” -Seth Romatelli Seth would’ve been even more pissed about the Bud Light “drinkability” campaign if he’d known it wasn’t even an original approach. Look at this Crisco ad, it’s even wacker! Good Housekeeping, December 1943: “…see how Crisco-frying makes those Franks in Blankets brown and crisp. And they’re so digestible even children may eat ‘em!” “Ugh, mom, these wood chips you fed me aren’t digestible!”  (See how it says “point-thrifty frankfurters?” That was because this was from 1943, during WWII, so there was food rationing on a point system. The government controlled how the food that was leftover after the soldiers were fed was divided up, trying to make it fair so that it didn’t become so that only the rich could afford decent food. Since hot dogs are made with pork squeezin’s or something, you could get lots of them with your monthly allotment of meat. Something like steak, though, you’d have to save up your stamps for. -Sethro)
