Pallet 43: �60 secs.^^Series of spots where husband and wife quarrel over coffee -- coffee tastes rotten; a) always wife's fault and b) making it is always wife's responsibility. Butternut guy shows up to save day, solve marital difficulties, by introducing Butternut coffee as the answer. Why is he upside down? Because instead of blending and roasting their coffee beans, ButterNut turns the process upside down, roasting then blending their beans. (shown with chart). ^^Scenario for this spot: Couple in kitchen, painting. Guy in sweatshirt, woman in kerchief.^^Guy: (smirking) This is coffee?^Woman: Oh, I give up.^^Upside down man appears to save day. Absurdist last scene as all three sit together, happily drinking ButterNut coffee, with guy on ceiling. (Hope they hadn't just painted it....)^^Tag: Most flavor from every cup.^Note: A Coca Cola product..�^^Faded. -- MPP 03/01/2016
