The flavor of snack foods that children love, transformed directly into a dressing. Even children who won't budge when told "eat your vegetables" will reach for the "addictive taste" of consommé potato chips and nori-shio potato chips—this is an unprecedented dressing born from such an idea.
The sheer "strangeness" of wondering, "Will a potato chip-flavored dressing actually sell?" is exactly what will make housewives in their 30s and 40s stop in front of the shelves and naturally spark topic diffusion on social media.

■ Recommended Usage
"Consommé Potato Chip flavor" and "Nori-Shio Potato Chip flavor" can be used not only as dressings but also for your everyday cooking.
On the official Tokushima Sangyo Instagram, recipes using these products are published every week.

■ Kenta Hoi single-handedly plays a dad, mom, high school girl, and child
[Image: A slightly strange family]
The commercial's concept is "A slightly strange family and a slightly strange dressing."
The familiar Kenta Hoi enthusiastically plays four roles all by himself: a dad, mom, high school girl, and child. A "slightly strange family" that seems like they could be anywhere but exists nowhere unfolds around the dining table, completing an addictive video that makes you look twice.
It's funny, looks delicious, and makes you want to watch it again. Such a commercial is scheduled to be broadcast in the Tokyo-Nagoya-Osaka area from April 12 to April 26.
The main commercial and making-of video will also be released on YouTube. The previous commercial video exceeded 300,000 views in just 10 months after its release, and it is designed to continue spreading continuously online while expanding awareness through television broadcasts.
