#12: Reese’s Alien Ad, 1985
In 1985, Reese’s came out with an ad that was truly out of this world – quite literally. The ad featured an alien who had landed on Earth and was amazed by the deliciousness of Reese’s peanut butter cups. It was a hilarious and memorable commercial that still brings a smile to our faces today. The alien’s wide-eyed wonder and enthusiasm for the candy were infectious and made us all want to go out and grab a pack of Reese’s cups.
Because, let’s be honest, who wouldn’t want an alien to validate their snack choices? The ad was a perfect mix of humor and nostalgia, and it’s a testament to the lasting impact that Reese’s has had on our sweet tooth cravings. Personally, I don’t see why Reese’s would even need such a creative ad to market their chocolate – I don’t need any convincing to eat Reese’s bar.
