Edelman India and Hellmann’s collab to create ‘Mood Burgers’ for cricket fans
Mumbai: Cricket is more than just a sport in India; it’s a way of life. As the nation gears up for the World Cup, Hellmann’s is elevating the match viewing experience for cricket fans with a unique 360 campaign, conceptualized and executed by Edelman India to launch Hellmann’s ‘Mood Burgers’ in partnership with SOCIAL. ‘Mood Burgers’ go beyond just taste and are specifically designed with intel from a Certified Mind-Body Eating Coach, Counselling Psychologist & Integrative Health Coach, Ridhi Golechha, to get you in the match-ready mood through carefully chosen ingredients.
The limited-edition menu will be available in three delicious options with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian variants. The ‘Get Charged Up’ burger is a protein-packed blend of chicken and eggs or beetroot, and quinoa to help fans charge up during those critical matches. Stay focused with the ‘Eyes on the Prize’ burger, consisting of tuna or chickpeas, flax and sesame seeds, who are the right partners when you are all ‘eyes and ears’ to the most exciting moments of the match. Relax and refuel with the ‘Drop the Jitter’ burger made using meat or plant-based meat, and avocado, which delivers essential fats and iron for a calm, steady mood. Each burger not only satisfies your taste buds but also helps you to have a delightful match-watching experience.
