Avocados from Mexico Avo Secrets
Posted in: AnimationAvocados From Mexico’s Super Bowl 2017, “Avo Secrets”, focuses on the well kept secret that avocados contribute predominantly good fats like mono and polyunsaturated fat, and so are now deemed healthy. The Avo Secrets commercial opens with members of a top secret society standing in a dark marble hall, surrounded by tall stone arches. The society leader is troubled, as we (the rest of humankind) have figured out that Avocados From Mexico have good fat – a precious secret the society is supposed to protect. His frustration grows when he notices one member, Kyle, live streaming the top secret meeting on his phone. “…is that not cool?” Kyle asks. Throughout the spot, other members anxiously clamor, humorously toying with viral, pop culture “mysteries.” They ask the leader if we’ve found out that there are only forty nine shades of gray; or whether we know that the moon landing was fake. “At least they don’t know about subliminal advertising,” says one member, and actor Jon Lovitz flashes on the screen saying “Eat them.”
Avocados From Mexico’s healthy brand message conforms to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration’s announcement concerning the definition of the term “healthy” on nutrition labels and foods. For avocados, the new recommendation shifts the focus, from total fat, to having a fat profile makeup of predominantly mono and polyunsaturated fats.
To immerse consumers in this year’s campaign, Avocados From Mexico has launched #AvoSecrets, a multi-touchpoint digital experience focused on a mysterious cellphone full of tasty secrets and clues. Throughout AFM channels, consumers have the opportunity to interact with the secret phone that belongs to one of the members of the secret society from the ad. By interacting with any of the multiple experiences and sharing on social media, users have the opportunity to win over $50K in prizes through February 7.
