1969 Alka Seltzer “Spicy Meatball” Commercial
Honestly I’ve heard this parodied so much but I’ve never seen the source
I didn’t even know it was a commercial I just thought it was a joke at Italians.
Why aren’t todays commercials like this
Because this commercial, despite it’s popularity, wasn’t a success.
When surveyed about the commercial test groups answered that it was advertising meatballs, pasta sauce and the like.
