Migros is the largest supermarket chain in Switzerland and enjoys somewhat a cult status. (Especially for people like me, living abroad.) The below Migros commercial made me smile. The countryside scenes you see there, that’s pretty much how I grew up.
(thank you @the12dude)
Anyone know what the music is from?

The pun on “why did the chicken road the road” made me LOL.

Remember the joke about a two-story outhouse? Imagine being on the first floor of a two-story cow barn.

i love all migros commercials, they are so creative, fun and intelligent. this one in particular has to be my favorite. because i happened to hang out my window in zurich back on june 11th when i heard this crazy loud animal roar. and there was…. a cow. and a film crew. even tweeted about it (something like, a bit different than living in nyc !). and now i see what they were filming !! so cool, thanks for sharing ! :)

If you have come accross this commercial you might have seen this online game:
http://www.migros.ch/DE/Supermarkt/Spaetsommerfrische/Seiten/Chocolate_Spiel.aspx
It s all about Chocolate the chicken and her girlfriends… they all live in a barn, lay their eggs and you can watch them live (through webcams) and put bets on them… pretty fun.. if you u live in the US you might get up early in order 2 catch some action… the chickens only work central european day time shifts and sleep at night,… give it a go!
