Huge, Erect Nipples Distract in All Bran Commercial

Some spots need to be viewed over and over again to be truly appreciated. Others, like this All Bran Honey commercial, need to be viewed over and over again get past staring at the unbelievably gigantic nipples protruding through the shirt of “Tall Jan” … to truly appreciate what the hell the ad was trying to sell.

Apparently it’s a word play on All Bran is delicious versus Tall Jan is malicious. Whether or not the “protrusive” scenario was intended or not, it achieved repeat viewership and what more could a marketer ask for?
