The 2014 campaign, dubbed “The Delicious One,” includes a series of 30-second television commercials featuring a cartoon-animated TDO and catchy jingles reminiscent of the early 1960s, when the company was founded. The mascot’s fresh new look and original jingles will be seen and heard throughout the brand’s comprehensive marketing campaign including radio, digital and print advertising, and social media; in addition to new packaging, crew uniforms, and in-store signage.
