Raisin Controversy

Posted by Matt Z on

We've got ourselves a raisin controversy!  

I'm amazed at what people get bent out of shape over.  Do we really think that Sun-Maid is trying to use sex appeal to sell raisins?  That works with other products such as beer but with raisins?  Compare the two pics (old left, new right) and decide which image makes you want to buy the product:

Old Sun Maid Raisin Image         New Sun Maid Raisin Girl

The new woman is obviously better looking and the image itself has a more modern feel to it but the product is still the same and when it comes to raisins, can you name another brand (quickly) other than Sun-Maid?

Now, if Sun-Maid is promoting more plump raisins, I think the new image is a better fit than the old.  But that's just me.
