Budweiser – 1950s

This outdated Budweiser ad features a few glaring issues by today’s standards: first, the fact that the husband’s wife and his friends’ wives were not included in their game night, yet the wife was still expected to be the one who provides the refreshments. Next, the company actually takes the credit for the wife remembering to buy the beer!

Hormel – 1970s

Due to the economic turmoil during the 1970’s, a lot of people were looking for ways to save money, even while grocery shopping. Hormel decided to step in and promised that their canned beef stew could provide a hearty, non-vegetarian meal without breaking the bank. Today, you’d likely see an ad trying to convince you to eat a vegetarian meal rather than a beef stew.
