Every 420, food ads vie to be top of mind for high people: 2023 examples
One point of clear normalization over the last few decades is the types of food ads you might see on 420, leading up to 420, or after 420. These are ads that are targeted towards the general populace, they aren’t behind an age gate and most importantly, they aren’t even for cannabis products. Instead, by and large, they’re about food. Whether it’s items priced at $4.20, a free item with purchase, or something else – the date and the number are unavoidable. While this list is very murrica centric, I’d love to see examples from other countries.
Here’s an ad I saw while browsing Reddit and seeing someone’s TIL be that there are potatoes in their compost pile.
“Jack has edibles and drinkables. Get a LG Pineapple Express Shake for $4.20 & DIY an edible assortment.”
The home of the munchies box went hard with this ad and even tapped into reddit cannabis lore with a pineapple reference. I didn’t even click the video but an impression was made.
How do they know how I look? Can they see through my camera? BTW, does anyone else see the image moving? Paranoia ensues.
More like insomnomnomnomnia – amirite? Free food on 420 is going to really become a thing.
I haven’t tried the Dutch Crunchies, but I’ve definitely tried the munchies.

Don’t be surprised to see 420 ads run into Cinco de Higho
It’s a two week holiday, anyways. Ad buys are rarely for a single day, and I honestly enjoy seeing 4/20 ads all through the 4/20s. That’s right, there are people celebrating from 4/20 all the way through til cinderella time on 4/29. Seent any other good 420 ads this year? Please send them my way so I can feature them. I’m sure there were a bunch on Twitter…. right?
