Thoughts on RX Bar's brand? Personally, I thought it was novel at first as a way of getting the brand to stand out, but now I think it's revealed itself to be BS. Wld like to know what others think.

It’s lazy work that uses the crutch of a celebrity as an attempt to stand out. Plus it’s unoriginal - even within the walls of W+K. Just look at their work for Sprite. I look forward to the day when anti-advertising advertising finally dies out.

Even beyond the TV and OOH, the core of the brand has always seemed off to me. It’s like the 18,000th food brand calling out other food brands for adding lots of artificial ingredients to their stuff. Whoop-dee-doo. Pottymouth Nauture Valley doesn’t seem all that compelling to me. Also, I don’t like even the shadow of the word “shit” within 100 feet of food.

W+K is bland, lost their edge. The product is horrible. And at the end of the day, it doesn't matter if ads are good or bad if you're selling shite that tastes bad.

So my question is now, does SAC have an in built excel option which would allow users to enter root causes across materials and then SAC refresh this

Macro tracking & body building experts - what should my macros & calorie count be if I want to lost 10-15 lbs? I'm 142 (due to stress and hormonal changes).

I want to get down to 128lbs.

My scale's app says my BMI is 25.3 - just hitting into the overweight bar & 19.8% fat.

Used to be around 23 BMI and 18% fat pre-pandemic in 2019.

I tried the macro calculators but I'm getting mixed guidance
