So much of what we do and buy each day is driven by marketing.
When advertisers use the right words and images, we take action – usually by opening our wallets.
Food producers know this and have tweaked their message through the years to get us to enjoy their products.
Here’s a rundown of some foods that were renamed so that you might actually eat them:
- Chilean Sea Bass Used to Be Patagonian Toothfish
- Dried Plums Used to Be Prunes
- Canola Oil Used to Be Rapeseed Oil
- Kiwifruit Used to Be Melonette
- Sea Urchin Used to Be Whore's Eggs (Cracked.com)
