This newish Taco Bell ad for their Frutista drinks is slightly confusing.  The annoying lyrics in their “if you like piña colada” ripoff song seem to suggest that stressed office workers and people stuck in traffic jams love drinking piña coladas to unwind, which makes perfect sense. I too would love to drink while I was stuck in traffic, if not for those pesky DUI laws. But these are obviously virgin drinks, so why are these stressed-out office fools so excited?

And if these drinks are really booze-free, which I assume they are, why don’t they call them virgin piña coladas? Is it because you can’t say “virgin” in a commercial? Virgin Air and/or Megastore doesn’t seem to think so. I might try one of these Frutistas (which sounds like some sort of militia), as long as I had a couple of mini bottles of rum to spike it with.

Here’s the silly ad.
