Comedic subway car sign reading: Studies show that people who eat peanuts live longer than people who don't eat.
October 1, 2026

This image is a visual recreation from memory and descriptions of Ogilvy & Mather’s “Snack Attack” advertising campaign for the National Peanut Board that ran (in part) as transit ads in Atlanta, Chicago, and New York (launched in March 2001). It is included here for linguistic commentary. Happy Linguistic Analysis!
