Another bad idea from a marketing department in the 1950's. One look at this Jell-O sampling clown will haunt your dreams the rest of your days.
Just me, but somehow hulking, toothless, hunchbacked clowns in Devo hats are probably the wrong way to build the Jell-O brand among kids. Then again, as a child I had frequent nightmares about Grimace the purple McDonalds blob, but I still occasionally eat at McDonalds so perhaps there's some psychological counter-brand strategy at work here.
