This advertisment has a brownish Orange background. In the middle of the page their is cartoon scientist on his hands and knees and cartoon coconut is bouncing off of his head. Under this image is text claiming that the company (Food Materials Corporation) can make a coconut flavor that taste more like coconut than a real coconut.

[additional notes]

What stood out to me about this advertisment is that the company (Food Materials Corporation) is making an explictly paradoxical claim. Presumably, a coconut sets the flavor of coconut and yet this company is claiming that they are able to make a more conconut flavor verison.
