I didn't want this picture to give you any ideas of trying this at home. I'm sure the proximity of the mug to the power lead of the PC was worrying many of you...
Advertising here is a world of contrasts. On the one hand, there is the extreme seriousness of car adverts 'filmed with a professional driver on a closed course' or 'simulated scenes' as pieces of paper float around the room in a not-remotely realistic manner. On the other hand, there is the milk carton promoting it's farm origins and then giving the name and contact address of their C-E-I-E-I-O, or another saying moo-chas gracias for buying this milk. One of my soya milk cartons even has the following: 'It's Free! ...of lactose, dairy, cholesterol, glutem, eggs, casein, peanuts, MSG and worries. You still have to pay for it though.' Somehow either of these extremes would seem out of place in the UK, although I suspect that the 'Don't try this at home' brigade will take hold there before the lighthearted packaging does.
Nah, the light-hearted packaging is on Innocent Smoothies already :o)

That's true but Exile #2 says she always though they seemed rather 'American' as a result!
