Enterogermina Anti-Murphy's Law Toast mockumentary tests ‘the 5-second rule'

Enterogermina – a client of McCann Health UAE and a non-prescriptive probiotic brand that helps to restore and reinstate gut health – has launched The Anti-Murphy's Law Toast campaign in the form of a mockumentary that challenges the '5-second rule' through 'specially engineered toast'. Through the campaign, which is being rolled out on digital and social channels in the UAE, the brand challenges Murphy's Law which states that 'anything that can go wrong, will go wrong' and invites people to question the myth: is it acceptable to eat something that has fallen on the ground, even if it's for less than five seconds? The campaign was brought to life for Opella Enterogermina by MRM Spain, digital agency Cappuccino, production company Cariño Contents, with the 360° media strategy led by WMcCANN, including a documentary premiere on Discovery Channel. Initially launched in Brazil, more than 40 key opinion leaders (KOLs) attended an exclusive screening of the documentary at Sao Paolo's famous Le Pain Quotidien bakery. The campaign also featured influencer amplification in partnership with Spark and a digital strategy led by Monks, focusing on social media engagement. Rollout of The Anti-Murphy's Law Toast campaign Created by MRM Spain, the campaign saw Enterogermina collaborate with physicist Robert Matthews, who was awarded the Ig Nobel Prize in 1996 for his study proving Murphy's Law applied to toast. A short documentary was created as part of the campaign, showing Matthews working with a team of scientists and bakers to design a specially engineered toast, in an attempt to defy this theory. The short film dives into the scientific research behind the concept, the creation of the first prototypes in the kitchen of 12 Michelin-starred chef Nuño García, and features insights from microbiology researcher Simon Baines. Ségolène de Marsac, Global Brand GM at Enterogermina, said, 'This innovative activation embodies our commitment to turning conventional wisdom on its head. Just as we are challenging the laws of gravity, we are also challenging common misconceptions about gut health through this unexpected mockumentary.' The prototype was a success, landing butter-side up about 75 per cent of the time, as opposed to only 37 per cent of the time when using conventional toast. 'By questioning a widely held belief like the 5-second rule or the odds of toast landing butter-side up, we aim to spark curiosity and discussions about gut health in a light-hearted way,' says Eduardo Magalhães, CMO of Opella Brasil. Félix del Valle, MRM Spain CCO, concluded, 'Thanks to the entire team at Opella and Enterogermina for supporting such a bold and brave project. This initiative takes a truly different approach to start a conversation about gut health. The result is a unique content that grabs your attention from the very first second, combining pure entertainment with education.'
