Snickers is the latest brand to release an ad that would have made zero sense to us a year ago, but is likely to raise a much needed grin in our weird new existence.

The spot highlights some of the habits we might have got into in our Zoom-heavy set up, and why it pays to be cautious as we emerge blinking into a more social world again.

The ad might be deeply topical but with its endline, ‘Confused? Maybe You Just Need A Snickers’, it aims to loosely tie into the brand’s long-running campaign depicting people who don’t act like themselves when they’re hungry. It will run on TV and online until the end of the year.
