Made to look attractive and presentable
to encourage the consumer to buy and
eat the product
Word choice: ‘By Jove, they pack a jolly
welcome punch Jonathan’ this is old
fashioned and influences the flavour of the
product within the lexis, which makes it
unique and builds character
A comparison can be made with the Salty Dog crisp
pack Text 24 ‘Howler or growler?’ association with the
brand character being a dog
Grammar: ‘and the information bit’ Sounds
sarcastic, and sounds as if the voice in the
text doesn’t want to say it, but it has to,
which goes with the character
Salty Dog: ‘Salty Dog are made for a small family
business....’ keeps referring to the character of the
dog
Influenced on the brand
Keeps the customer
interested
Layout and presentation: The different
colour to refer to the flavour of the crisps
This makes each packet
different, making it easy to
differentiate
Boxes for titles, subtitles
Titles are all in capitals, making them stand out
Salty Dog: The flavour of the crisps is also found in a
separate colour box, which draws attention to the
things the company see’s as important, which reminds
us of the brand
Figurative language: ‘Crisps of
natural character’ this adds humour
and also builds character. It also
goes with the image of the colonel
‘Natural’ also makes reference to the crisps
Salty Dog: ‘THAT bites back!’ this also
builds character, and looks messy by
having a mixture of lower and upper case
letters
The ‘BITE back’ could be referring to the flavour
Context of production: The
packaging, aimed to draw the
customer in
‘BEST BEFORE (SCOFF BY)’
Adds humour and may also be
aimed mainly at the male
population
