Grey Poupon "Pardon Me" is Back! Giveaway



Thirty-two years after the original spot aired, Grey Poupon Mustard is bringing back the iconic “Pardon Me” campaign to highlight the refined mustard’s quality and good taste. The new TV spot picks up right where the original 1981 commercial left off, showing what happened after the Grey Poupon was shared with the other distinguished gentleman.

The 30-second TV spot entitled “The Chase,” created by CP+B, features a humorous taste of adventure, including car chases, flying champagne corks and caviar car slicks, which ensues after the Grey Poupon jar is shared. The spot is a teaser for the extended version which will be available online at GreyPoupon.com following the teaser’s premiere during Hollywood’s biggest awards night February 24th at 4:00 p.m. (PST)/7:00 p.m. (EST). Designed to look like it’s been 32 years in the making, the spot uses what is made to look like “lost footage” from the original “Pardon Me” shoot, and shows the original spot didn’t end with the two gentlemen simply driving away.

“The first ‘Pardon Me’ TV spot elevated the brand well beyond a common condiment and established Grey Poupon as synonymous with premium quality,” said Nadine Rich, Brand Manager, Grey Poupon, Kraft Foods Group, Inc. “There’s never been a better time to define, recognize and celebrate good taste with a new generation of consumers who may have been unaware of the irresistible taste and premium ingredients of Grey Poupon.”

The extended version of the video will be available on GreyPoupon.com today and will feature clickable “Haute Spots” where viewers can click hidden spots within the video to reveal and win props featured in the TV spot, including items such as fine caviar, champagne flutes and tokens made from the luxury cars. Exclusive “Society of Good Taste” Facebook members are now able to have an exclusive screening to the new spot prior to its premiere.

Hm...Most of the movies that get Oscar consideration are not the kind of movies that I like. Since Argo won, I probably will watch it.
