The Hottest Food Advertisements Ever

These ads stirred pop culture, broke the internet, or redefined how we look at food marketing. These ads are remembered not just for the food, but for the flavor of boldness, sex appeal, controversy, or cleverness they brought to the table:

1. Carl’s Jr. – “All-Natural Burger” with Charlotte McKinney (2015)

A now-iconic Super Bowl ad featuring model Charlotte McKinney seemingly walking naked through a farmer’s market. The camera teases viewers as she bites into an “all-natural” burger. Sexy, controversial, and very talked-about.

2. Burger King – “Super Seven Incher” (2009)

With the tagline “It’ll blow your mind away,” this ad was packed with innuendo and sparked a storm of debate about sexism in advertising. The visual? A woman preparing to eat a very large sandwich. Subtle? Not at all.

3. GoDaddy – “Perfect Match” with Bar Refaeli and Jesse Heiman (2013)

While more of a web hosting company, this ad plays like a food ad — a slow, steamy kiss between a supermodel and a stereotypically nerdy guy, amplified by exaggerated mouth sounds. Uncomfortable? Yes. Unforgettable? Definitely.

4. Paris Hilton for Carl’s Jr. – “That’s Hot” (2005)

Paris Hilton, a Bentley, a skimpy swimsuit, and a juicy burger. It was banned in some markets, but the buzz made it a cultural milestone in sexy food advertising.

5. Pepsi – Cindy Crawford (1992)

Cindy steps out of a Lamborghini in cutoff shorts, drinks a Pepsi while two young boys gawk — but really they’re admiring the new can design. Iconic, wholesome, and still considered hot.

6. Doritos – “Ultrasound” (2016 Super Bowl Ad)

Funny and steamy in its own odd way — a pregnant woman gets an ultrasound while the dad teases the unborn baby with Doritos. It ends with a surprising (and kind of wild) twist.

7. Arby’s – “We Have the Meats” Campaign (2014–onward)

While not overtly sexual, this campaign leans into primal, masculine energy — deep voiceovers, meat porn visuals, and unapologetic carnivorous pride. It’s hot in its own carnivorous way.

8. Pepsi – Kendall Jenner Protest Ad (2017)

Not sexy, but hot in terms of controversy. The ad, which tried to link Pepsi with solving global unrest, was pulled within 24 hours after major backlash. Still one of the most discussed ads ever.
