I also only had time for the first few minutes of my morning — and wow! Having a 2 year old exponentially increases the logos….

huh, can’t believe it took me this long to respond to the last batch of comments here, sorry about it.

Peter, I don’t know if anyone has any statistics on how brandwashed we get on a daily basis. I bet it’s going to be more than hundred logos a day. It would be interesting to find out though. But then it depends on the activities of each of us.

Genesis Bible, do you see the same logos I featured here every day too?

Thanks, Stephanie. I’m glad you liked my brand feature from two perspectives. Before this post I never actually thought how much brainwashed with brands my daughter already is, but then I noticed that she does remember which brand of milk she drinks and the toothpaste she uses.
I’ve also heard scary stories of older kids at school being excessively brainwashed, so much so that they bully other kids if they wear clothes with no big brand names.

It’s always interesting to see the brand timelines of other people. :]

I like the fact that you actually took the time to take photos of each brand you and your daughter interact with.

Btw, did Peter Sullivan find out the answer to his question? I’d be interested to know as well.

Cheers,
Stephanie

Does anyone know the stats on this? On average how many logos do we see a day. I’m sure it depends on where you live, but I think it would be very interesting to know how many logos we are actually exposed to on a daily basis.

Warenwirtschaft, you’re right, those organic brands do look vintage. I guess because they’re trying to communicate the message that the old days with no pesticides were much better than the current times :)

thanks, komodo dragon. I had fun taking those pics. :)
