Why have I never seen an ad for bread on tv before?

I think sara lee used to run ads.

Dunno.

I haven't watched TV in years, but there used to be fuckloads of ads for Wonder Bread, Dempsters and lots of others.

We don't need to be reminded to buy bread. We are children of God and our lord and Savior ajesus chriSt who made bread for US to eat in their tjme of need so it si inour blood

>>7562539
I can only vaguely remember one in the US, some kind of calcium fortified bread

>>7562539
Staples don't need to be advertised.

This only makes sense if a single company has a monopoly on the bread market.

Now I work there.

Or if there are a bazillion local companies making the exact same product, in which case the high cost of advertising isn't worth the minor return.

Beat me to it. I think most areas have their own regional brand so doesn't make sense to advertise on television. Who Butternut bread here?

>>7563130
Cause we never see ads for ms windows right?

>>7563370
a) Microsoft is no monopoly
b) When did anybody say there is never a reason for a monopoly to advertise? Keep your snarky remarks on point
c) Sounds like America doesn't see bread commercials because modern Americans lack the entrepeneurial spirit of expansion. I'm half inclined to move over there and start the bread empire that none of you thought to establish.

>>7563392
a)Holy shit you're retarded, do you think you sound smart right now?

Eggs, milk, and canned tomatoes aren't really advertised either. There's a reason staples don't widely purchase adspace, but obviously you've figured it out and will make a killing!

>>7563392
>every word of that post.
Christ alive anon... I'm sure you're the Ocsar Wilde of your high school and the kids there make you feel like you have a razor wit of legends but that post was fucking retarded.

We have them in the UK for Kingsmill and Warburtons. We even had a TV commercial recently for Warburtons Giant Crumpets that had all of the Muppets on it. Talk about a budget.

Previous to the Warburtons Muppets ad, they had Sylvester Stalone doing sliced bread.

They broke into the bread market pretty big.

Previous to that Hovis had the giants share, particularly with the 'Bread Boy Delivery' ads.

And I am even old enough to remember the Nimble ads from the 1970's .

Warburtons do not fuck about when it comes to giant crumpets.

>>7563802
The Stalone advert is equally as good

kek these are both done well.

I used to see Sara Lee commercials for...i think it was powder white bread

>>7562584
This is great . .. .almost brought a tear to my eye.

The scenes in the 1960's and the reference to the miners strike in the 80's was brilliant!

This bread advert is probably THE most remembered by us old fogeys.

It was filmed in the West Country (Shaftesbury, Dorset) and produced by Ridley Scott - Yes the Guy who did 'Aliens' !!!!

Living in the West Country myself, there are still towns and villages with cobblestones and they are hell to ride over on a bike.

This advert is from 1973.

Do you see ads for bananas or vegetables? I didn't think so.

>>7562539
Because you're American, probably.

Here in the UK, the major brands all run advertisements to try and compete with each other.
It's stupid, because the own-brand stuff is clearly superior and cheaper to boot.

Ultimate bulking food.

Kek, no it doesn't. Rich people go to rich people grocery stores and buy overpriced bread. Poor people go to poor people grocery stores and I'm sure you get how it would work after that. The market for bread is a monopolistic competition.
