Continuing the long standing advertising tradition featuring the smiling food mascot, comes this ad for the Hotel Menasha smorgasbord. Like that pig who beckons you to consume him at the barbeque restaurant or the cow at the steak joint, this fish and lobster welcome you to what today we'd likely call a seafood buffet, all the while with smiles on their little faces. Or perhaps they are just oblivious to their fate, unlike today's Chick-Fil-A cows who knowingly tell the consumer to just "eat more chik'n."
