    Hi lads, Does anyone remember that early 90's TV ad for Yoplait yogurt that featured Zig and Zag?

    zig.jpg

    It went something like...

    "Hello, I'd like to speak to the yogurt?,
    The yogurt???
    Yes the fresh and creamy Yoplait yogurt. etc."

    I'm trying to find it on youtube but I cant.

    Please if somebody could find me a link?

    I thought you initially meant that stupid muller ad with the mothers talking into the yoghurt pots. The strings aren't even taut. I sincerely hope someone got fired for that blunder.

    Yup, the Zig and Zag ad, drove me crazy as a kid, I was into tech even back then and as an 8 year old I thought the idea of sucking a yoghurt through the phone using a straw was silly ... now that I'm a little older it just seemed like fun.

    9/10 times a phonecall between me and my younger sister starts with that conversation. We have been doing it since the add came out so many moons ago. This so funny :D
