Yeti in Stride Gum Whitemint Commercial…
– – With Stride gum packing long-lasting flavor, management has to take strong measures to get consumers to spit out their gum wad, take a new chew, and so grease the economic wheels. They have devised ingenious ways of doing just that; past commercials have depicted rams butting customers, wrestlers squeezing the gum out of them, and German folk dancers slapping them chew-free. Now, an even heavier hitter has been recruited; the legendary Yeti!
This isn’t your father’s abominable snowman, mind you, although he certainly is cool! This Yeti enters a marketing meeting wearing a headband and earphones, and delivers a gut punch to one manager, physically forcing him to expel his gum. A voiceover warns, “Spit it out. Or Yeti will find you.”
Stride Whitemint gum is licensed by gold medalist snowboarder Shaun White, although I’d much rather meet the Yeti…

Hmmmmm! I just saw Part 2 of “Scrat’s Continental Crack-up,” as a prelude to the 3-D re-release of THE PHANTOM MENACE. And, the tail end of it seemed to hint at a fourth ICE AGE movie. One involving pirates led by a seemingly albinistic anthropoid!
But, when (or even if) there truly will be such a sequel, I have no idea…as Yeti.
