Some lollys arrived in the office from Tom’s trip away. I dropped the trivia bomb of: ‘did you know that Salvador Dali designed the Chupa Chups logo‘ on a couple of people. Expecting them to know. But they didn’t know. So I wondered if it was a less well-known fact than I’d imagined…

We had that chat this week! Adam brought one of those giant ChupaChups full of ChupaChups back from his holiday, and Nick was giving it about the Dali thing.
You’d think he’d have worked at least one melting horse in there somewhere, wouldn’t you?
I blogged this as well the other day; it was on Danny Baker’s 606 show:

Chupa Chups running some kind of word-of-mouth under-the-radar viral we don’t know about? Clever…
that’s amazing.
i’ve never heard that before. it goes without saying that i will now be buying up some lollies, so that i can drop that fact all over, as if i knew it all along.
it’s actually the only interesting fact I know. Saying that I know the one that goes… people swallow on average 8 spiders in their lifetime while sleeping. It’s kind of food related I suppose.
Not again!
Awesome fact! I did not know it.
I can donate one food related fact in return.
Too much coffee can kill you – more than 10 grams in a few hours and you are at serious risk of popping your cloggs.
Not the cheeriest I know…sorry about that. (Better than eating spiders though surely?)
I love this fact! It is a wonder that it has not been used in some form of brand activation … imagine where it could go.
