When Nakata comes home and says, “I’m back,” they immediately pop party crackers to celebrate—but she drops a shocking line: “My birthday is tomorrow.” The bears droop in disappointment, but Nakata starts wrapping all the prepared ingredients in plastic wrap, saying they can eat them for tomorrow’s birthday.

Saran Wrap Commercial (1989)

Do you know mamakari? It’s a local dish from Okayama Prefecture, made by pickling a small fish called mamakari in vinegar, and in this commercial the pickled mamakari suddenly appears right from the start.

When the wife worries about the smell transferring, the shopkeeper recommends, “If it’s Saran Wrap, it won’t let the smell through.” I wondered what the ad was for, and it turned out to be Saran Wrap.

It’s a cleverly structured commercial.
