Why did the tomato turn red? It saw the salad dressing!

This joke reminds me of my very distant past. I think I was about 10 years old - still in elementary school; 5th grade (?) and we were given a project. Something to do with advertising. We were to choose a company's product(s) and create an ad. I choose Wishbone dressing as we seemed to use it quite a bit at my house.

My ad had two bottles of salad dressing with a face on each up on the neck of the bottle looking at each other. My caption was "It's your turn to dress the salad!" I handed it in and got a 100 on it. My mother thought it was very creative and suggested we send it to Wishbone as an idea for an ad.

A few weeks went by then this big box showed up on our doorstep. Inside was a letter from Wishbone thanking me for my effort and they would considerate it. And would I please accept their thanks which came in the form of EVERY single flavor of salad dressing the Wishbone made - I think it was like 30!

So we ate a lot of salad! I think my mother experimented using a few of the flavors as marinades.
