The point is not that you’ll see fum and pick it because you recall an ad. The point is that you need any fum-type product, don’t really care which, and your hand reaches for fum while you’re busy thinking about the stupid thing you said in a pub yesterday, or wondering if it’s going to rain.
Don’t need fum or anything similar? Congrats! You’re not the target group. Doesn’t mean ads don’t work on you.
Cognitive distortions like present bias, emotional reasoning, temporal distancing, opportunity cost blindness, reinforcement loops, all these are factors in why people behave impulsively when presented with an opportunity. Addressing how each individual justifies them in their habits and behaviors is the foundation of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. The behavior is not limited to the mentally challenged or the rich, it’s the result of being human but lacking insight and understanding on why you do what you do when you do it, what you hope to gain from doing it, weighing the risk/reward, and developing the self-awareness to question your behaviors before you act upon them.

Weird how you assume people blindly grab products without thinking.
That is the behavior of morons and rich people (I repeat myself) that don’t need to care about what they throw money at.
