Wheat Thins Urges America to "Do What You Do"

Popular Snack Brand Taps Pop Culture Icons to Launch Bold New Flavors

EAST HANOVER, NJ--(Marketwire - Mar 27, 2012) - Wheat Thins, the snack known for its deliciously complex taste and intensely satisfying crunch, announced today the next phase of its Do What You Do advertising campaign featuring pop culture icons doing what they do best and encouraging Wheat Thins fans everywhere to embrace every experience, no matter how big or small. Two new television ads feature "Saturday Night Live" alumnus and "30 Rock" star Tracy Morgan and legendary "Jeopardy" host Alex Trebek, each being their quirky selves and enjoying Wheat Thins' bold new flavors, Spicy Buffalo and Zesty Salsa, respectively.

The first television ad in the Do What You Do campaign launched in January to great success and featured "Family Guy" characters Brian and Stewie doing what they do best -- bickering -- over a box of Wheat Thins.

"We're proud that Wheat Thins can be the snack that goes with what our fans love to do," said Jim Low, senior marketing director at Kraft Foods. "From going to music festivals to watching sports to hanging out with friends, our fans are passionate about what they do, and the Do What You Do campaign gives us a fun, pop-culture way to celebrate it!"

Bold New Wheat ThinsFlavors

Bold new flavors -- Spicy Buffalo and Zesty Salsa -- join Ranch, Smoky BBQ, Sundried Tomato & Basil and White Cheddar to create a vibrant line of flavors for Wheat Thins. Both new items feature 100% toasted whole grain crunch.
