"Big Me" music vid

Months ago, I was playing telephone pictionary with my dad. When I wrote down "Foo Fighters" on the card I passed to him, he responded with a picture of a hand holding a small thing he insisted was a package of "Mentos." I asked him what that had to do with Foo Fighters, and he said that one of their first "things" was a commercial or something for Mentos. I never did find anything of the sort. And when we asked him what his favorite Foo song was, he said the one on with the Mentos or something like that.

The other day I got an iTunes giftcard and bought the official version of "Big Me" by Foo Fighters, since all I had was the live Skin and Bones version. Then I checked for the music video and read a review saying that the dude loved how it parodied the old Mentos commercials. I went to youtube to watch the whole video, and found that it was this video where, though three examples of people faced little problems, they took a bite of "Footos" and found a way around it. Way to persevere, peeps! And I'm so glad I think I finally found what dad was talking about.

Bottom line is, you gotta watch it here.

Now, tell me watcha think!
