@sinbach with a mis-spelling on aluminium too lol😂
@Berrybunchfamily @sinbach It's the American spelling of the word. It's pronounced differently too, but means the same.
I don't like the demeaning tone in the advertisement. I will admit though, that I have (infrequently though) asked my husband's help to open a difficult lid. Some lids can be so difficult that even he struggles. I'll guess that @sinbach you've probably experienced a lid or two that has given you a challenge. 🤔
@Cherishingsparrows2020 @sinbach
The US version always seems easier to 😂 say to me . We Brits like making things harder, such as having longer words🤣
As for the rest.....wow. I'm sort of surprised if it went out like that even back then without something of a backlash
We have a chocolate bar over here called "Yorkie"
Its really thick and chunky (and tastes fab) and used to be known as the truckers chocolate bar (as a former trucker it was my go to chocolate bar to be honest)
The company had a stroke of genius as far as sales were concerned
They ran a massive campaign to increase their sales - "Yorkie. Not for girls"
Feminism was especially rampant at that point and their sales went through the roof as women bought the bar to prove the company wrong

@Cherishingsparrows2020 @sinbach reverse marketing and then some
I love accents and different words. Its fascinating.
Like pronouncing halfpenny in the UK....it's nothing like it should be over here, nor is Worcester 😂
Jo used to work in an area called Coldmore
It took her a little while to work out where "Karma" was, or that it was a name for an area....which is how the locals pronounced it....
Coldmore was pronounced Karma.....🤣
@Berrybunchfamily @sinbach 🤣
