Fun Sized
Ever notice that when when selling food, all marketers have to do is make it seem exciting? Fun-Sized Candies, McDonald's Happy Meals, KFC Snackers...
And on the subject of sized, marketers are brilliant. Instead of small which would denote less value, its 'bite, mini, or fun-sized'. When it comes to larger its just spirals out of control to 'Jumbo, King, Nephilim-Sized'
Unfortunately, when you go to try on new pants at the store, the waist size is rarely ever as thrilling as the marketers suggested.
With the holidays approaching, I have to watch out for my fun-snacking. As the office girl who spends the better part of her day doing crafts and refilling candy dishes around the office has begun to leave treats on peoples desks with hand drawn pumpkins that say Trick-or Treat.....
... I have no more words.
