Created by The Wonderful Company’s in-house agency and animated by Illumination, The Wonderful Company’s two commercial feature is the latest produce marketing innovation. The first of the two aired in October and depicted a frowning Grinch discovering the taste of Wonderful Pistachios is like no other.
