Try getting a family sized pizza from Pizza Hut, as well as 2 garlic breads, a 1.25 litre bottle of Crapsi and 12 fun sized Mars bars for under $20 today. Damn inflation, you'd be lucky to get just the pizza alone for that much nowadays.
That looked like it was aimed at kids birthday parties or other social gatherings of people with bland taste in food. What makes me cringe thinking about is that I know that there would’ve been some fatties out there who would’ve have that order between two people or even to one person. I have to smirk thinking about an advert with that market on it; some oily sweaty super fat parson with the bottom their gut poking out the bottom of their sweatshirt and the top of their bumcrack showing at the top of their jogger pants.
Back then we didn’t mean anything by the word oriental. It just meant south East Asian. That snack pack was yummy. I remember it. The wings were basted in an Asian type marinade. It was an era of Asian inspired food surfacing. Only a few years later we had ads for things like Kan tong which were a lot worse imo did to the stereotypes. I’m so chuffed this ad made this video and an Oporto one didn’t. I’m very partial to RR because it was founded in my state (WA) and it’s always compared with Oporto because Oporto was Sydney’s chicken fast food chain before RR crossed the border even though it’s totally different.
Andy Summers No different to the KFC used in commercials nowadays actually. Just like ALL food/fast food ads, then AND now, they prepare the food to make it look so fresh, perfect and enticing. And we all know that in reality, then AND now, they look almost NOTHING LIKE the way they do in the ads.
I think they either bought the Smiths ads from America. Or used the same concept here. Because I'm fairly certain that the gobbledok was also in Smiths ads in the States, before it appeared in Australia.
Does anyone remember a TVCM with an Australian army tank driving through a dam and catching a yabbie? One soldier yells out "look what Davo's done". It's driving me crazy trying to remember the CM.
Yep, then they serve him this huge platter of rice with the single yabbie on top. It was one of the Army Reserve ads, back when they always used the 1812 Overture as their theme.
Jesus, that Red Rooster ad Lmao...... It wasn't even *that* long ago, but these days you'd get fired for even suggesting *anything* to do with a campaign like that.
I remember each and every one. Growing up as a 70s, 80s child the television was the home centrepiece. We all gathered around daily to watch, and advertising was Full of melodies, chords and chorus….. Whoever is uploading all these videos must have some connection to the advertising world?
If you lived in regional Australia you might not have. Different marketing. I grew up, and still live, in regional NSW, and visiting relatives in Sydney saw adverts that just didn’t appear on local stations. Vice versa my relatives were shocked to see ads for Ag products etc when they visited us. To some extent still applies. Especially Radio.
TH3 PLA1NP1L0T yes. Burger King had to change to Hungry Jacks in Australia because the business name was already registered and used by a burger joint.
If ads didn't explode in our faces we might watch more tv. I've had enough of the volume of the ads. Don't try to tell us they're the same volume as the rest of the programs, they're made to explode in our faces and they're turned off in our place.
Really? That's one of the most popular characters to come out of an Aussie advert campaign... Now, when it come to Charlie Chickenhawk and the Fabulous Mr Fox,and their debate on whether KFC is great for the herbs and spices, or the way it's cooked...
@@Mav_F she was also in home and away n played a character named karen way back in the 90s. From what i read she left the acting gig n moved on. Pity she really was a good actor.
Well Pizza Hut used to be owned by Pepsico. It took me a while to getting used to seeing Coke there. When Pepsi had been there for almost 50 years. I remember Coke being the drinks for KFC until they switched.
$2.95 for a whopper and onion rings.
Fuck me what a time to be alive
Minimum $15 now
Damn inflation. We could saving a lot more if inflation wasn't a thing.

Yes but .6 dollars an hour.
Er, I was clearing $190, you simplistic tosser.
13 pieces of chicken and you get 6 free drinks 😂
How times have changed.
Lol yeah like what free drinks 🤣

It's Pepsi - no wonder they were giving it away.
Now we understand about hardening of the arteries.
Piece of chicken not canary. Even a pizza was 40% bigger
These ads remind me of when Australia was a nicer place.
There was no country like Australia, now Australia is just like the rest
Wtf are you talking about
But but but, we have diversity now. We must have diversity right?
heath ledger died and yall went to shit
@@Matt-vr5zk thank John Howard for that
A time when commercials were worth watching.
Okay, the Caramello ad is freaking hilarious. Also I think the Australians in the 80s and 90s were the absolute masters of catchy commercial jingles.
Quite right
Koala
That caramello koala one. still as smooth today as it was back then.
only because the song is actually real. Music is timeless, advertising is more of a fad....
Man I want one though
But 50% smaller. Its so much thinner and smaller with bugger all goo
If they made ads like this today, I would actually pay attention.
Caramello was stoned out of his gourd when they shot that ad.
Too much Eucalyptus bongs
Maybe, but that Gobbledok was way higher. Did you see all the chips he went through?
Loved the song. I knew there was a original song and I heard minions singing it 🤣
The nostalgia is real.
Back when Australia only had a population of 15 million?? Sheeeeit lol
It has doubled
And Mars Bars were 12" long and had fact sheets.
and pretty much all of them were white take me back
@@wollo6 Zali Steggall is white. She's almost Albino. Move to Manly and take advantage of the cheap property prices while you still can... oh wait.
@@wollo6 Think I'm gonna be the scapegoat for the whole damn machine?
So glad to see the Gobbledock! Loved that dude 😂
I do remember this caramello commercial 1:08 it use to play that in the mornings before we use to go to school. Good old days I miss it
Yes, and you could get one for 5 cents in 1968 and they were twice the size they are now
I miss the yowies being made by Cadbury. It was fun to actually assemble those toys. I had 2 and half baby formula tins full of them
Red Rooster were ahead of the times showing Asian Australians in their ad...
Real Orientals.
Red Rooster vs KFC
😂
Now Melbourne may as well be China.
@@dungoofed8983Then leave. Gi back to whatever white bread vanilla shithole you prefer.
Ah - miss the 'Gobbledock'!!! '" Ahh -chippies" :D
Just how much cocaine does your ad agency have to do to come up with THAT?
What makes me laugh is how the potato chip eaters in these adverts are all slim and fit and healthy looking.
We used to say that on the playground. Such an aussie legend
U gotta love being Australian
I'm British.
♫ now our oriental snack, could win you to hong kong and back ♫ X'D
Holy shit I remember all of these ads, I was born in 1980.
Holy shit 12 fun sized Mars bars!!!
So much nostalgia in one video!
Lol the gobble docs used to scare me when I was little.
Wimp!
It's infinitely creepier when you realize they just cut off Yoda's face and transplanted it on to ALF.
Love the Goobledok,
Ah chiippppppes.
🤤🤤🤤🤤
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I still love the
Barbecue flavour,sooooo good.😉👍🏻👍🏻
Haha that's how my kids are now stuck at home. Where potato chips.
Chippiesss! Golem before golem was voiced lol
Damn that PK jingle was catchy
That Pizza hut commercial. If that was nowadays, it woud cost an arm and a leg.
"It's Yaoi power" It certainly is
I wonder what gay tastes like
Omg I was thinking the same thing lol 😂
@@l0sts0ul89 it's pretty salty
The third ad, "Caramello Koala", is based on Donovan's classic song "Mellow Yellow"
TheShortMan
HAHAHA
You beat me to the sarcasm. 🖒
The Red Rooster ad today would have Grace Tame going straight to the Daily Mail!!!!!!
Tame by name, not by nature 😂

Huh?
Back when Pizza Hutt pizzas were big and 20.00 you got extra stuff
And sometimes you actually went there sat down and ate...
Wow thanks for the upload bud, what a time warp!
That pk ad had that guy invading personal space according to 2019 standards
Not as good as the onion farm one or whatever it was 🤣🤣
1:01 I want that rn
Has Pizza Hut just always had the same person taking in there ads 😂
Curried egg sandwiches. Yum.
Willaura Bakery in Vic has these to die for.
They call me caromello KOALA
At Long Jetty, where 7 Eleven is, it's used to be pizza hut, then it's moo-ers steakhouse, now it's 7 Eleven.
2:47 looks nothing like it does today as back then. Look at that colour. Its thick mouthwatering and really seasoned.

I'd like some of whatever the Smiths people were on, because wtf.
I think he blows his wad every time he finds a bag.

Wtfs that thing anyway
90s Pizza Hut "hit the phone now!"
Pizza Hut phoneline now "Please use our app" 😢
4:11 No Ones Going To Mention the Fact That The Smiths Cursed Thing Is Walking Into Kmart?
Look at the size of those snack size Mars bars.
This Yank says "Yes Please," to Vegemite on toast with butter. De'Li'Cious!
can you get it in america can you...
Deano
There are particular random stores in America that sell overseas products, including Australian products.
Vegemite, Tim Tams etc.
The P.K ad jingle goes hard😂

It's going on in Alice Springs, and they show a shot of Uluru, which is 400km away?
It's in the NT, close enough 🤣🤣🤣
Most Aussies live on the coast; and anything in middle is all mixed up together.
(Kind of like Americans and Paris landmarks, per Team America.)
Jesus, that Red Rooster ad Lmao...... It wasn't even *that* long ago, but these days you'd get fired for even suggesting *anything* to do with a campaign like that.
yeah, its funny to see now. "Oriental Chicken so let's get Oriental kids!"

I've actually never seen some of these advertisements in Australia
YAY FizzyBubblySoda I

God damn I need a caramello koala....wait, I'm an adult now. I'm buying boxes of those delicious little fuckers
2018 was 50 years since KFC opened up in Australia
2021 was 50 years since McDonald’s first stores in Australia.
That KFC jingle is catchy
They had to give away the Pepsi, because even back then, Pepsi was shit 😜
Fantastic thank you
A whopper and onion rings for $2.99 wow.
What was the wage then? Much lower.
Hungry Jacks is basically Burger King right?
TH3 PLA1NP1L0T yes. Burger King had to change to Hungry Jacks in Australia because the business name was already registered and used by a burger joint.
Yes
Hungry Jack's guy is Reg from Housos
Wow good pick id never recognised him seeing how young he was. Fark he aged big time.
Wow
Holy shit.
Holy shit 😅
I love the random Mars bars lol
today's commercials have nothing on commercials of yesteryear
lets see Red Rooster relaunch that Oriental chicken ad in today's day and age - people would be losing their Politically Correct minds
Fair Dinkum VEGEMITE...cheers mates via Dallas xx
TWELVE fun sized Mars Bars?! *_HOT FUCKIN' DAMN, SON!_*
A time before Australia was Aussie
We might as well have subtitles now
As an Australian I agree,too many ads now in Australia move too fast and always include that accent only afew people actually have...
Nostalgia hit me hard
Id like to believe every monster/animal that appears in these are just every day things people see in Australia
What kinda bothers me are that the Smiths are called Crisps, but everyone I know call them chips.
Crisps is the UK term. Chips is the US term. Aussies are a mixture between the two.
The Gobbledock use to freak me out as a kid ! And HOLY RACIST RED ROOSTER AD, BATMAN !!! Haha how times have changed haha
What part of the ad did you find racist?
@@relacser he finds Asian people racist 😝
@@48Ender48 yup, he's probably just projecting his own internalised racist thoughts.
I like chinese...was a song for mum is making canton jars of sauce for cooking asian.

They don’t make ads like this anymore.
Oh the chippy monster! Chippy, Chippy, Chippy!!!

Omfg this is brilliant. Imagine everyone losing their shit at the oriental ad omg lol its out there.
THAT IS WAY TOO MUCH VEGEMITE! WTH
oh gawd, the gobbledock
Lol the gobble dock
P.K😢.. nostalgia
That pizza looked strangely waxen.
It's a nuisance when I watch a rerun of a show from the mid-1980s and the adverts aren't from the same era. They so should be.
oh yeah!
Was it a bricklayer trowelling out the vegemite? So thick, no thanks. Carmello Koala the best ad of them all.
Oh btw who misses gobble docks smiths monster
It's weird seeing a pizza hut ad where the drinks were from pepsi

Upper class bogans.
Wait Australia have Asian Fast food?, Australia is better than my Country Malaysia
"Asian food" is a novelty item in Australia - or was back then. Just a bit of Paprilka and peppers or some such added to give an "Oriental" flavour.
