Famous food brand encourages Aussies to 'get out' with their latest advert!

Australian Lamb is back again with their yearly tradition—quirky adverts to kick the year off with a good laugh.

The food brand once again took a bold step in addressing a bizarre phenomenon that has been taking over in recent years.


Titled 'The Comments Section', this year's Australian Lamb ad encouraged Aussies to step away from the often heated discussions happening online.

The ad cleverly uses '100 per cent real comments' sourced from the depths of the internet to showcase the absurdity often found in online discussions.

From debates over pet care to the shape of the earth, the ad brought virtual arguments into the real world.

The ad highlighted how outlandish and disconnected these arguments appear when interacting with people personally.

In a surprising twist, the ad also featured a digitally altered image of David 'Kochie' Koch in a way viewers have never seen him before.


The AI-generated image shows a buff Kochie lifting weights on the beach, a nod to the fake ads that have previously misused his likeness.

The ad continued jumping from one bizarre scenario to another as people continued spouting harsh comments commonly found on social media platforms.

The tension continued until 'Lambassador' Sam Kekovich stepped in.

With a lamb cutlet in hand, he said, 'Come on, everyone, get out of the comments and into the cutlets. Just eat some lamb.'

Australian Lamb urged everyone to come together over a tradition just in time for Australia Day—a lamb barbecue.


Meat and Livestock Australia's Marketing General Manager Nathan Low expounded on the advert and its message.

'When you delve into the world of online commentary, it would leave you thinking Aussies are at each other's throats, no matter how trivial the topic. In real life, we don't treat each other like that,' Mr Low shared.

'The Summer Lamb campaign is an irreverent reminder that Australians are always at their best when we're united, and there's no better way to bring everyone together than an epic Aussie lamb BBQ.'

The ad was more than just about enjoying lamb; it also became a social commentary on how people interact with each other in the digital age.

It also suggested that people should spend more time enjoying each other's company over good food and commonalities—not on screens, engaging in debates.

Seniors have seen the massive changes that affected the way we interact with people.

From handwritten letters to instant messaging, the way we converse has evolved dramatically.

Australian Lamb's latest ad should be a timely reminder that while technology has its place, it cannot replace the joy and unity found in face-to-face interactions and shared experiences.
