Marketing

I am a mindless drone when it comes to Advertising.

That is how it felt at lunch. While sitting at a red light, wondering what to eat for lunch, A big box truck caught my attention. Plastered to the side of the truck was an advertisement for Wendy's sweet and spicy asian chicken. An advertisement, advertising a product I have seen once before and made a note to try it when possible. The answer to my lunchtime bemusement was an advertisement plastered on the side of a truck. 3.99 of that advertisement is now paid for by me. (arguably part of that should go to the original ad that caught my attention, but it did not call me to action so it gets no credit).

Target was my first stop as we desperately need paper towels. Unfortunately they did not have all the 'clear liquids' needed for the dreaded Thursday. So STARVING I went to Stop and Shop (grocery store). I managed to get away with planned purchases only. Poweraid and Snyder's Buttermilk ranch pretzel pieces), not being able to eat tomorrow probably played a big part in that. Temptation with reguards to food is not my strong point, if it is there I will eat it.

Back to the chicken, It was ok. The chicken itself was good but the sauce wasn't so great. It wasn't the spicy or sweet, maybe it was the ginger but it was not as good as I wanted it to be. The Frosty on the other hand was out of this world!

All that junk food made me feel fat slow and out of shape. Hopefully a healthy dinner and a very short elliptical (or run) workout will take care of that.
