Advertisement Dissection and Analysis

The advertisement says “Be bad. Snack well." According to the advertisement, the saying means that if one eats the snack advertised, then one is able to have the fit and fabulous body to have a fun and bad time as shown in the picture. The advertisement shows a girl standing on top of the guy’s back. The people in the image look like they are fun being on top of each other. The picture suggests that the couple is very intimate and is happy and having a lot of fun. The girl is wearing a short shirt and underwear, whereas the guy seems to be either wearing just underwear or nothing at all. The people in the advertisement seems like they had just met the night before and were attracted by each other and so decided to go to one of their apartments and get together.
The advertisement has a bed, pillows, white sheets, and a snack box. The objects are associated with the present. I can recognize a city's skyline through the windowsill, which suggests that they are in an apartment room. The advertisement is selling Snackwell's White Fudge Drizzled Caramel Popcorn at 130 calories. What is most interesting about this advertisement is that when the ad is supposed to be selling a healthy snack, the ad seems like it can be promoting birth control items or underclothing.
