Oatmeal Crisp mans up

Oatmeal-Crisp

What’s manlier than a bowl full of fruit and nut cereal?

General Mills brand Oatmeal Crisp is going after the male cereal consumer with new animated video spots from Cossette Toronto.

The ads – running in various lengths in English and French markets – celebrate the history and tradition of “one upmanship,” or beating your fellow man by doing something simply better, complete with manly, beer commercial-style narration.

The “One Up Your Bowl” spots end off with an Oatmeal Crisp inventor character, “one-upping” other cereals with his addition of fruit and nuts and the introduction of Oatmeal Crisp Dark Chocolate Cranberry flavour (which launched last month).
