McCains’ Ad Features Fries Jingle That Rivals Katy Perry’s Menulog Song

McCain’s is back with a new ad for its fries, and the campaign features a jingle so catchy it rivals Katy Perry’s Menulog song. 

Independent agency Dig is responsible for the ad with the catchy chip jingle. The song is just Kelis’ classic banger, Milkshake, remixed to discuss the benefits of frozen chips – genius. 

As McCain Foods Australia embarks on an interesting journey, Dig has been awarded the McCain Foodservice campaign to launch McCain SureCrisp™ fries in Australia.

McCain Foodservice has carved out a strong reputation for the quality of its fries, which were first sold in Australia in 1971.

Today, as takeaway and home delivery grow, fewer consumers have been ordering fries to avoid the soggy fry dilemma, with 82 per cent of consumers experiencing lacklustre, cold fries upon delivery.

Staggeringly more than half of Australians surveyed say they don’t expect the fries to be hot and crispy by the time they arrive. 

It’s surely time for a better solution.

McCain SureCrisp™ fries have been developed specifically to address the problem of soggy chips in these sectors – by featuring a special plant-based coating that stays crisp for up to 30 minutes.

With the perfect balance of taste, texture and superior crunch, McCain SureCrisp™ delivers on consumer expectations while also giving venues the confidence to consistently deliver deliciously hot, crispy fries across on-premise, takeaway and delivery.

Meg Wise, marketing manager, Potato- Foodservice ANZ, said, “This launch is the first of its kind by McCain Foodservice and complex, in that not only are we communicating B2B, but we wanted the campaign to integrate into our customer’s stores, online and via ordering apps (B2B2C) and to build awareness and demand directly with consumers who are ordering takeaway and home delivery (B2C).

Dig showed their strategic and creative capability to manage this complex mix with a campaign that is fresh and engaging for the Foodservice channel.”

Peter Cerny, the chief creative officer at Dig, said, “There is no doubt soggy fries suck. But when you have good fries, everyone wants some. In fact, McCain SureCrisp™ fries are so good they draw a crowd. Hats off to Courtney and the crew at Eight who did an awesome job capturing the right level of sass with Kelis’s timeless classic ‘Milkshake’. Yeah, McCain SureCrisp™ fries are better than yours.”

The campaign will launch nationally across Catch Up TV, Digital, Radio, Social, and In-store.
This latest win continues the momentum for Dig, after recently being awarded the RACV creative business.
