Frito Bandito: Food Marketing from 50 Years Ago

Food companies trying to get consumers to buy more of their product isn't a new concept. Witness the "Buy 2 Hide 1" message at the end of this 1960s commercial for Fritos, starring the Frito Bandito. I think, though, that today's commercials are a little lighter on the ethnic stereotyping!
