Vintage Vs Current Food Ads

"If it doesn't sell, it isn't creative." -David Ogilvy

I am always curious to keep tracking of food ads. Yes ads are there for persuasion and selling a product. They indicate how much the food and beverage industry have improved in terms of quality, processing and marketing.So ads do represent the science behind the food. At the same time, they definitely say how much a society developed, and changed drastically its mentality regarding Food. Ads are always a representation of the current status Que of the food and eating culture.
When comparing current food product ads with vintage ones, they do say about the cultural shiftsthat have occurred in terms of need and demand to different kinds of food, to a different aspect of eating and taking care of one's body.One proof is that the century of "western diseases" ( the last 100 years) is hopefully coming to an end with more nutritional awareness spreading. One can notice this in food ads that were promoting bad food habits, to the current food ads that actually care about health and advertise the "good" ingredients... Though no one can deny that there still remains some ads that can truly disregard one's health....
These vintage ads show how much the advertisements where jeopardizing one's health: Coke for Kids? and Lard as a food for happiness? See them below and compare some to the current ones!
