Legal Disclaimer:
The poster does not actually believe that the above is true, it is merely stated for humorous purposes. After all, if you believed that, you'd probably believe a soft drinks giant like...ooh, say Coco Cola (for example) would have the audacity to filter ordinary tap water and then charge over a quid for 500ml... AND then ADD a possible carcinogen to the bottle which wasn't even present in the original, unfiltered water... oh wait a minute...
They are addictive. Is it me though or is that not really a selling point? 'Once you pop, you'll keep shovelling our reformed potato snack into your fat face until you've eaten enough to make you obese'.
It's all in the spin, I guess.

A lot of the non science names are simply there because the actual ingredient is a) extremely every-day and boring, and b) they can't copyright/trademark it..

Who pops the top off pringles anyway, i sure as hell haven't ever seen anyone do it.
and even if you did you've still got to pull up the foil wrapping...it's not as simple as they show!
AND what about that damn 'Herbal Organics' shampoo.... I never get that excited in the shower washing my hair with it... even if I get creative!
you need Mrs. Deck about when you do it Kiddo
Grr don't even get me started on shampoo adverts.
Couple of 'new' (made-up) ingredients like SebumPro-Nutrient GTi, bit of srubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishy CGI showing how the new ingredients 'work' (ooh looky it's actually repairing the hair folicles!!) and a splash of hair-swooshing and bam! we got ourselves the latest pile of rubbish to rush down to Boots en masse for.
You thought the marketing man was off his head when he came up with Cillit Bang?
How bout this...?
"Hey guys, I've got some lovely cookies - What shall we call them?" THE MOST UNFORTUNATE NAME FOR COOKIES - EVER!
Peckam springwater!
Hahahahha reminds me of the Tefal man with the HUGE forehead!!
Anyone remember him?
LOL he sounds like a character from a Lewis Carrol story
The best product name is for something I've seen on QVC (not watched it myself you understand, i walked in while the missus was watching it).
Its a hair removal wax/tape jobby, and its name is... unfortunate
if only their slogan was "Go..."
