GCFD Introduces Spaghetti … Pour Elle.

With help from production firm Dictionary Films, Leo Burnett launched a TV spot for “Food Shouldn’t Be a Luxury,” an effort to encourage locals to donate supplies to the Greater Chicago Food Depository.

The ad’s put together like a generic perfume ad, with occasional flashes of a boiling pot and some random pasta fondling. We seriously winced when the model sexily purred “Spaghetti” in her fake Kate Moss-for-Eternity voice, but it got the point across: Okay, okay! Food shouldn’t be a luxury.

Make a donation or volunteer time at Every1Can.org. Unlike the prints (see first link), the spot doesn’t invite users to text donations over. Not sure if that means the texting thing didn’t pan out, or if Leo Burnett just doesn’t think people keep phones nearby while watching TV.
