First thing I looked at was what was for sale. Upon seeing what it was, I looked to the center, expecting videos of all of the old commercials. Way to disappoint me, Meh. Totally gotta go back in time and subscribe to VMP now so I can unsub in retaliation for this injustice.
@dave I watched the first commercial, and was somehow paralyzed from clicking stop, or moving my arm for that matter. Finally, at about the 2:30 mark-- I was able so get control of the situation and stop it…
@dave that was the most productive 6 minutes of my day, hands down. I don’t remember the boyfriend in the house one with the face mask but man, the others are magic.
I mostly just remember the end, with the smiling dude holding up a roll of Mentos as the music ends and the voiceover proclaims, “Mentos: the Freshmaker.”
I don’t remember the words, I’m not sure if I ever really did know them, but I can still mumble them. “Men-tos better, meeeeen-tos freshness, mentos better the mentos freshness formualaraaaaa!”
Refrigerators: the battery fresh keeper.

@caffeineguy same here!
@dave Haha, I watched that whole thing. Those commercials always seemed so strange and dated, even when they were new.
@caffeineguy @ragingredd No, you have to watch the last one!
@CZug Totally! They were just weird. You always just shook your head after one of those ads.
@jqubed I was able to quit at about the halfway point but saw your comment and watched the last one, wish I hadn’t. WTH was that?
@dave I actually LOL’d at the boyfriend one. I remember a lot of these, but not that one. It was so dumb, I had to laugh.
@dave The people who made those ads were non compos Mentos.

My son thinks I’m weird cause I have a roll of mentos next to my bed
@ragingredd When are you going to tell him that Mentos are his real dad???
@cpierce would explain his fresh mouth

DER FRAISCHMAKKER
The ad is burned into my mind. Just like the memory of mentos completely breaking the meh site.

I cant think of a current Mentos commercial, but I can still remember these commercials!
