Beer In Ads #553: Budweiser’s Tossed Salad

February 29, 2012 By Jay Brooks


Wedneday’s ad is for Budweiser, from their 1950s ad campaign “Where There’s Life ….” Like a lot of them, the ad copy talks about whether other brands list the ingredients on their label. While the woman is tossing a salad, the gentleman is pouring a Budweiser. Is is just me, or does he look a lt like Jeff Goldblum?

    It’s the orgasmic look on her face that worries me, Jay. Does American English use the British vulgarism “tosser”?

      You don’t hear it much stateside, but I watch way too much British TV so I’m very familiar with it. Though “tossing the salad” does also have a colloquial meaning beyond the stirring of lettuce that I’ll let your imagination work out.
