spangles poor wording

one of spangles commercials that is promoting one of their ice cream treats is so ridiculous and everytime i see it, i just think, 'who wrote this?' because it is just bad.
this is what they say...not word for word, but you'll get the gist.

'try our new caramel sliders, featuring one of our classic toppings...caramel.'

oh wait, you mean there is going to be caramel on a caramel slider?...really? i was almost expecting them to say chocolate.

i hate that commercial. it is so stupid and redundant.

Maybe they write bad commercials so people will blog about them... and in essence advertise for them even more?


...but yeah, that still sounds like a really stupid commercial. And I've never ate at spangles... largely because of their commercials.
Although also because 'spangles' makes me think of 'spam' for some reason.

you're so right, spangles can be connected to the word spam, and you're also right, maybe i just fell into their plot of product placement

p.s. how nasty does the food look in spangles commercials...i want to vomit when i see them...i imagine that's not the effect they're going for...
