Alcune persone celebrano gli anniversari con il cibo, o ballando, ma l'Università di Economia di Turiba, in Lituania, ha deciso di festeggiare in modo originale: la vecchia reazione Coca+Mentos. Per il quindicesimo anniversario della scuola, gli studenti hanno fissato...
It's one of my favourite sour chewy dragees! [Another one is Skittles Sours!]
This container is definitely more satisfying than the paper stick ones!
As for the price? I'm sorry I forgot, it's too sourly-sweet to remember. The label written 2.5% fruit juice, and do you think that's where the good point is?
Forcément vous êtes tous au courant du buzz Mentos-Coca Light et forcément vous avez tous vu la vidéo. A l'occasion de la fête de la musique, Mentos a organisé un event sur le parvis de la gare Montparnasse pour permettre à une poignée de bloggueurs d'assister au show en direct Live des deux félés de Eepy Bird. Perso, j'ai eu la chance d'assister au spectacle affublé d'un magnifique Pan
Quién no se acuerda del gran buzz de Coca-cola y Mentos. Viral, en todos los recopilatorios, casos de éxito, curiosidades, blog, hasta incluso pruebas hechas por los propios internautas. Todavía la historia continua.Si recuerdas, no hace mucho estuve en Riga pasando unos días. Pues hoy me entero, que allí, ha tenido lugar, nada más y nada menos, que el Record Guiness de gente reunida proband
Recuerdan este video, bueno al parecer en la ciudad de Riga, capital de Letonia, han conseguido realizar un Récord Guinness (el 19/06/08) con la mayor cantidad de explosiones de Coca Cola + Mentos. Y para la prueba el siguiente vídeo.
La Universidad de Turiba (Letonia) pasará a la historia por conseguir un record Guinness de hacer explotar 1911 botellas de Coca Cola y Mentos a la vez, celebrando de paso el 15º aniversario de la Universidad…

Voilà une campagne "virale" dont la réalisation en ligne mérite quelques attentions... La marque de bonbons sucrés Mentos vient de lancer un advergame original, parodiant le jeu d'arcade Mortal Kombat, en ramplaçant les high kicks par des bisous...
North Kingdom (herinner u Get the Glass en The Coke Zero Game) strikes again met alweer een hoogst entertainend advergame. Mentos Kiss Fight is een parodie op klassieke vechtspelletjes à la Street Fighter, waarin u de tegenstander niet moet vloeren met geweld maar met kussen.
Drie levels staan tussen jou en eeuwige roem. In iedere level [...]
Même si l’inspiration du fight for kisses de Wilkinson est criante, le jeu Mentos kiss fight est réussi. Des vidéos bien intégrée, un scénario original et une jouabilité plus que correcte pour un advergame au graphisme un peu recherché .

Todos conocemos qué es un beso... Quizás uno de los mejores actos que emanan y se intercambian entre los seres humanos... Se dice que adelgazan, que generan buen humor, etc... Ahora bien... Un buen aliento es siempre importante y Mentos ha decidido jugar con ello.Dentro de este universo, y dándole un par de pinceladas virales (rubia (muy muy) cañón, final inesperado) crea una pieza de experen

It's good to see that in a world of starvation and poverty people can come together for some very important and cheap experimentation. Hope that record was worth it!And really, raincoat or no, that's pretty damn sick. You're gonna end up with coke all over you. The picture is kinda interesting though.
It was to be one of the biggest science experiments ever seen yet there was not a bunson burner or test tube in sight. Around 1,500 students kitted out in waterproof ponchos discovered exactly what happens when you drop a mint sweet into a bottle of Coca Cola, in an attempt to break [...]
A Leuven in Belgio è stato battuto il record mondiale di esplosioni di Coca Cola e Mentos. In piazza Ladeuze si sono riuniti 1360 ragazzi per infilare le caramelle nella bevanda gassata e il risultato è stato un successone!

It is the kind of experiment which gets even older kids excited about science.Students in the Belgian city of Leuven have set the new world record for most Mentos fountains by launching 1,360 simultaneous geysers.After they each dropped a tube of the mints into a bottle of Diet Coke, Ladeuzeplein square became a sudden sea of foaming soda yesterday, with carbonated streams shooting up to 29 feet high.Explosion: Belgian students in Leuven out-fizz previous records for adding Mentos to Diet CokeFilms of the Mentos-Diet Coke mix have been posted on Internet entertainments sites attracting at least 10 million viewers.The previous World Record was set in the U.S., when 973 Cola bottles were launched simultaneously.The craze has developed into an advertiser's dream with a 20 per cent increase in

Vocês já devem ter ouvido falar na combinação radical e explosiva entra a bala “Mentos” e a famosa “Coca-cola” Diet. O que muita gente não sabia é que isso é verdade e foi comprovado por mais de 1.500 estudantes belgas que resolveram quebrar um recorde mundial.

Det er kanskje litt tidlig å begynne å prate om årets morsomte reklameparodi, men denne vanvittig morsomme parodien på en Mentos reklame kommer garantert høyt opp. Sjekk Mentos- the freshmaker:
Budskapet i reklamen her er det samme som mentos-reklamene ellers: man får mer selvtillit og blir mer “fresh”. Denne var kanskje litt “over the top”?
Time to ask the age-old question....is a mint actually a mint if there's no mint in it? Mentos, which are famous for their chewy peppermints (and that commercial from the 90s that was subsequently spoofed by The Foo Fighters) have entered the world of sour. I am dubious. Mentos, the Sourmaker just doesn't have the same ring to it.
These 'mints' come in three flavours: lemon, watermelon and
I love Mentos for the way they have turned out humorous and unconventional ads and they never disappoint. The latest commercial of Perfetti Van Melle’s Mentos continues with the value proposition of "Dimag ki batti jala de" however this time it takes the Darwinian theory of evolution of Man and gives it a minty twist. The animated format of the ad gives it an interesting look. The animation for this ad was done in Singapore though which disappoint me for I had hoped that such kind of work should ought to be done in India. Nevertheless its a funny ad and is quite a hit
Mentos has launched a new campaign much in line with the positioning of " makes you smarter " exemplified by the slogan " Dimag ki batti jala de". This time the agency took the idea far into the evolution era.Watch the tvc here : Mentos evolutionThe new campaign is different from the real slice of life type of earlier campaigns. The new campaign is refreshingly new and absolutely funny. In a low involvement category, one has to take this route to stay on top of the mind.What I liked about this brand is the consistency of the positioning and the message. The brand was able to sustain the positioning all these years. By looking at the animation and the quality of the animation, the cost may have gone through the roof but this ad has the steam to stay longer in the media. Also this ad will
Mentos is back and this time it aims to build a community around its brand. In the past it had built a cool marketing minisite Mentos Helpline which was wacky and funny and dealt with the problems of youth in a call center setting. Now it aims to develop a hangout for people looking for humour and intends to associate it with its brand. Its Mentos friendsline seems to be targeted initially at bloggers and its ads can be seen all over on Technorati. This is quite an interesting medium since they need to develop good content to be able to attract the readers. However I am skeptical about the ability of a brand based website to attract hardcore bloggers who are not likely to leave their platform they would be better off targeting casual users.
Pues bien... parece ser que las reacciones de Coke & Mentos son ya bastante populares... hasta el programa más loco de Discovery Channel ha dedicado varios episodios a este fenómeno...Tanto es esto, que considero meritorio publicar algunos bosquejos de lo que será nuestra recapitulación sobre tan codiciados productos en el mercado de las bromas de mal gusto...Primero... una explicación bastante extensa del fenómeno (siento no poder colocar el video directamente, pero el dueño del video ha pedido a Youtube no generar el código para hacerlo):Explicación "a la MythBusters"Y, para lidiar contra el tedio diario... nuestros amigos Adam Y Jamie crearon una máquina navideña de reacciones en cadena... bastante entretenido...P.D.: Omitan la payasada de "feliz navidad"... ^_^

Eccovi uno dei video più cliccati di YouTube: il genio pelato si chiama Paul Robinett ed ha la brillante idea di imbottirsi la bocca di Mentos per poi tracannare un bottiglia della americana Diet Coke (la Coca-Cola light). Paul è un coglione che negli ultimi anni si è guadagnato una fetta di popolarità sottoponendosi ad esperimenti autolesionisti piuttosto interessanti, di cui questo ne è un esempio lampante. Tuttostà vedere se prima o poi ci resta sotto...
Pues si, estrenamos la sección Videos Youtube de experiMENTOS(Nunca mejor dicho). Como podeis ver, se origina una reacción curiosa si mezclamos unos Mentos con una Coca Cola. Ya sabeis a qué invitar a alguien que os caiga mal. Podría convertirse en una anécdota muy graciosa para recordar con cariño en el futuro:

We hebben al vaker op internet de filmpjes gezien van een rolletje Mentos wat in een fles Cola werd gestopt, wat dan door de reactie ontploft. De gasten in het filmpje besluiten het iets groter aan te pakken. Je moet...
Maybe the whole Mentos + Diet Coke craze is well-worn. Candy Addict’s first post about this phenomenon dates back to October of 2005. In Internet historical reckoning, that’s around the same time as the extinction of the dinosaurs. Even the Mythbusters got into the act, exploring the scientific principles that govern the geyser.
Now ThinkGeek, the Web’s premier destination for all things nerdy, is selling a special kit which will let backyard Mythbusters conduct experiments of their own. For $19.99, the Great Geysers Kit includes a specially-designed quick-release tube, allowing folks to add Mentos down the neck of the bottle without having to flee for their lives afterwards. It even comes with two tubes of Mentos, so the only thing you need to provide is the two liter bottle of soda. Result: Fun and sticky science!

A common criticism of Coke based on its allegedly toxic acidity levels has been found to be baseless by researchers; lawsuits based on these criticisms have been dismissed by several American courts for this reason.
Most nutritionists advise that Coca-Cola and other soft drinks can be harmful if consumed excessively, particularly to young children whose soft drink consumption competes with,
I’m sure everyone’s seen the Mentos and Diet Coke videos, but has anyone seen the Mentos and Carlsberg video? I’m surprised no one has tried to put a Mentos into a beer! The effect is much better than Diet Coke even with just a single Mentos. Take a look!
What a great viral marketing campaign, these days you don’t even need to buy a TV spot to effectively advertise a product! Anyone seen any other such viral commercials?
Edit: Not sure why I thought it was Heineken - it’s clearly a Carlsberg!

Avrete visto un sacco di volte i filmati dove viene evidenziata la reazione di una caramella “Mentos” dentro una bottiglia di Coca. Una reazione davvero esplosiva con fontane e spruzzi veramente micidiali e spettacolari. Qualcuno ha voluto provare la stessa esperienza apportando una modifica, sostituire la Coca o Pepsi con la birra, precisamente una birra Carlsberg.
Risultato dirompente

I love Mentos’ most recent viral marketing initiative: MentosIntern.com. Props to Elizabeth Cannon, Mentos’ brand manager, and Paul Bichler, creative director at Bartle Hegarty, the agency that created the concept. According to Cakke, a blog focused on domain name values, MentosIntern.com is “the fastest-growing domain name we’ve ever seen” based on its generating more than 30,000 Google hits on the phrase “Trevor the Mentos intern” in less than three weeks. You don’t need Paris Hilton to say, “That’s hot.”
Check it out as covered by Advertising Age in its July 16, 2007 issue:
Mentos late last month hired Trevor Day, a sophomore University of Cincinnati drama student, as a virtual intern to do the world’s bidding from his cubicle in the company’s U.S. headquarters in Erlanger, Ky. People can call, e-mail or chat with him and enter jobs for him on his calendar at mentosintern.com.
Of course, the key ROI measure for the campaign is not the number of site hits ne

Mentos a compris que le buzz de son mélange avec du Coca commence à être usé donc ils ont (enfin?) changé leur communication web en proposant quelques chose d'innovant. En effet Mentos mets à la disposition des internautes son stagiaire (qui doit être un acteur) Trevor sur mentosintern.com. On peut donc lui demander de faire ce qu'on veux ou lui poser des question depuis le chat. Une espèce de super subverscient chicken réél. L'idée semble géniale mais elle présente quelques limites qui sont que Trevor (le stagiaire) n'est à son bureau qu'aux heure de bureau du Kentucky 9H-17H (soit 15H-23H en France) et Trevor ne peut répondre qu'à un nombre limité de questions/requêtes. Aujourd'hui il n'y a qu'une poignée de personnes connectés donc Trevor arrivait (déjà avec difficulté) à répondre à toute les questions mais si le site buzze bien, il risque d'être victime de son succès et Trevor n'executera que ce qui sera planifié dans son agenda, ce qui sera

Brand Mentos is getting smarter and smarter. The brand which broke into the confectionery market with its " Dimag ki Batti jala de" campaign has hit the Big Idea jackpot. This year saw a new campaign from Mentos in the same line as its earlier campaigns. The ad features a young man in an auditorium with his squeaky shoes.Watch the ad here : Mentos The ad is maintaining its " Makes You smarter" tagline and this has been a hit in the market place.According to agencyfaqs, the ads has helped the brand to increase its marketshare in the soft mint category from 33% in 2005 to 48% in 2007. The company attributes this to the smart advertising. I would attribute this to the excellent quality of the product. The ads are made by Mr Rajesh Krishnan of Footcandles.Mentos has been using Ordinary Life & Mentos Life and the tagline " Makes You think Smarter" since 2005 . The first in the series was the Classroom ad followed by the " Haircut".Mentos is a classic example of the power of Big Idea. The "
Mentos avait béneficié d'un très bon buzz grâce au mix Mentos/coca qui avait généré des milliers de vidéos d'utilisateurs. Mentos essaye de trouver une nouvelle expression artistique à partir de ses produits. Il s'agit de "popper" en partie les plaquettes de mentos pour en faire un dessin. Les internautes peuvent s'exercer sur makeartpop.ca et une vidéo montre le making of d'une oeuvre en art pop (à ne pas confondre avec le pop art) : sources: ad goodness
