chiquita

How much faith can you truly put in banana-themed electronics? Would a rugged outdoorsman rely on the directional accuracy of a Chiquita compass? Would such things turn the tide against alien hordes who’ve crossed the vast expanse of space to conquer and enslave? The mind boggles.

Perhaps Chiquita should just stick to “collectible” Winter Olympics stickers. Or, here’s a crazy idea, bananas.

    Now you’re being way too post-modern. I remember this ad: it was goofy fun then and it’s goofy fun now. Meant to be taken at goofy-fun-face-value.

      As was my post. This is a bit like the plantain calling the banana yellow.
