Food Advertisements -What makes us buy it

Food product choice is overwhelming as well as TV commercials and print advertisements that want to sell their food products to us. Who to believe? How to choose? Do you trust what is shown to you?

At a meeting of the company's top executives at Purchase, New York, before they headed out for Christmas holidays, Indra Nooyi, Chairman and CEO, PepsiCo, placed a bright-coloured pack of tangy baked crackers on the table.
