It’s like surf ‘n’ turf in a bag!
Welcome back to Great Challenges in Advertising. A woman in South Korea says she found a rat head in some shrimp cracker snacks, and we’re wondering how they could reposition that product in the marketplace. Your suggestions so far:
- Rat head shrimp crackers, the snack that can’t go bad!
- They’re skull-crunchingly yummy!
- Rat head: when you just don’t feel like a whole rat
- Rat head, like the shrimp flavor isn’t bad enough…
- Rat head crackers – they’re plague-o-licious!

Now with added rabies flavoring!!!
what are shrimp cracker snacks?
My daddy always said “if you get hungry enough you’ll eat ANYTHING.” Guess that goes for Rats On A Stick! as Monty Python knew so well…
They could just rename the crackers Ratatouille…
Meanwhile, in North Korea, a woman complained that she found shrimp crackers in her Rat snacks.
They should start putting those child safety markings on their plastic bags only about rats. Where was PETA when all of this was going on?
Shouldn’t that be Surf and Dump?
