Looking for the delightful taste of s'mores without the dirty and dangerous hassle of making a campfire? Oreo has you covered, with help from a curious furry forest friend.
The Mondelez brand just released Oreo S'mores in time for summer, and is promoting them with a series of quirky comic videos from 360i starring S'morey, the Unidentifiable Forest Creature. We're told he's "a bit like a badger, a bit like a hare," but the important thing is that he knows exactly how you can get your s'mores fix—whether you're on a golf course, in a canoe or even at the office.
The goofy PSA-style spots, aimed at millennials, feature throwback '90s-style animations and will run on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram.
As part of the campaign, Oreo also teamed up with Zipcar for a fun stunt over Memorial Day. Some lucky Zipcar users who made a reservation for the weekend found a surprise pack of Oreo S'mores in the passenger seat.
