This playful little campaign by Grupo W, Mexico is for Hershey’s Icebreakers, and the object of each interaction — for those who don’t speak Spanish — is to demonstrate how “The truth tastes better.” Especially with Icebreakers.

There’s also a companion site that roughly translates to The Flavor of Your Truth, where you can spell out your personal truth and create a new brand image out of pictures tagged with the words you used.

It all sounds very Dorian Gray. Do you really want to know what your truth looks like?

Behavioral scientists found that the generation gap between boomers and millennials isn’t actually about values. It’s about emotional dialect. Both generations care deeply about family, loyalty, and hard work, but they express it in languages so different that love from one side registers as control or indifference on the other
