Cheerful ukulele and whistling plays in the background. NARRATOR: Alright everybody! Today we’re gonna learn about making mindful choices at Culver’s. |
A spotlight opens onto a ButterBurger. Text appears beside it. ON SCREEN TEXT: MINDFUL CHOICES Made EASY |
|
NARRATOR: We know what you’re thinking |
The text disappears and the burger shines in the center. Text appears with a line pointing to the top bun. ON SCREEN TEXT: Lightly Buttered Toasted Bun |
|
NARRATOR: “Ooh! Culver’s! ButterBurgers!” An “Oooh!” sounds as though from a studio audience. |
More text appears with a line pointing to the patty. ON SCREEN TEXT: 100% Fresh, Never Frozen Beef |
|
NARRATOR: Me. Want. One. Now.” |
The burger grows bigger as it moves toward the camera. |
|
NARRATOR: Well of course you do. But we’re talking mindful choices. You know, healthy choices? Lower calorie choices? |
The burger slides aside, and a blackboard stands in front of a green background. “MINDFUL CHOICES” is written on it in stylized writing. The board flips over and the words “HEALTHY CHOICES” is written on the other side in the same style. The board flips again, revealing the words “LO-CAL CHOICES”. |
|
NARRATOR: So, no way a single ButterBurger—a beautiful, lightly butter-toasted bun-topped patty of fresh, seared-to-perfection beef we’re famous for—I mean, no way that can be on the list, right? The film ends and the music stops. |
Grainy film footage shows someone brushing melted butter onto a toasted hamburger bun. Then a spatula flips burger patties on a grill. |
|
NARRATOR: Guess what? with a musical “Ta-da!” sting. |
Now the ButterBurger sits under two spotlights |
|
NARRATOR: Not true. The cheerful music returns. |
Several menu items are shown alongside words like “MMM” and “Delicious”. Then everything falls away except for the ButterBurger. |
|
A choir sings for a second. |
A cartoon hand points a finger at it and text appears under the burger. ON SCREEN TEXT: YOU KNOW IT A cup of soup and a glass of soda join the burger and a green label depicting a checkmark in a thought bubble appears with the words “mindful choice”. |
|
NARRATOR: See, at Culver’s, we offer more than twenty crave-worthy menu items, including the mouth-watering ButterBurger, that can be combined into completely satisfying meals for around 500 calories. |
Three digits make the number “500” and the word “Calories” is scrawled underneath. |
|
NARRATOR: So, forget the cardboard sandwich, |
A sandwich with a pile of cardboard between the bread appears with text. ON SCREEN TEXT: NOT AVAILABLE AT CULVER’S |
|
NARRATOR: forgo the side of Styrofoam |
Then a box of packing peanuts appears and the text changes. ON SCREEN TEXT: NEITHER IS THIS Sorry |
|
NARRATOR: and, for goodness’ sake, stop. Skipping. Lunch. |
A roaring bear image appears, and a sign pops up reading “DO NOT FEED THE BEAR”. Cracks appear across the screen and the word “NOT” is crossed out on the sign. |
|
NARRATOR: You in the mood for a plump, juicy, tasty grilled chicken sandwich? |
A grilled chicken sandwich appears with text. ON SCREEN TEXT: CHECK ONE: Boxes appear alongside the options. ON SCREEN TEXT: Yes Sure You bet Checkmarks appear in all the boxes. Then the sandwich appears with a salad and a soda. |
|
NARRATOR: Enjoy it with a crisp side salad with raspberry vinaigrette for around 500 calories. |
Text appears below. ON SCREEN TEXT: AROUND 500 CALORIES A “mindful choice” label is next to the text. |
|
NARRATOR: Or trade the chicken for one of those single cooked-to-order 100 percent fresh beef ButterBurgers, still…yeah, around 500 calories. |
The chicken sandwich is replaced by the ButterBurger and a hand illustration appears to point at it. The text underneath changes. ON SCREEN TEXT: YES, STILL AROUND 500 CALORIES |
|
NARRATOR: Even with a hot cup of tomato Florentine soup, |
The salad is replaced by a cup of soup and the text changes. ON SCREEN TEXT: SERIOUSLY, STILL AROUND 500 CALORIES |

The ButterBurger is replaced with a chicken salad and the text changes. ON SCREEN TEXT: NO JOKE |
|
NARRATOR: Or maybe just dig into a… The narrator lowers his voice, and the music is replaced with slow country instrumentals. |
The food slides aside and a red and black plaid pattern takes over the background. |
|
NARRATOR: Slow-braised beef pot-roast sandwich and real mashed potatoes with gravy. The narrator returns his voice to normal and the cheerful music takes over again. |
A pot-roast sandwich slides in with a soda and a cup of mashed potatoes. The silhouette of a fork and spoon appear on the either side of the meal, then a hatchet. |
|
NARRATOR: Yes guys, we even have options to satisfy the heartiest of appetites. And uh, yes! They’re still around 500 calories. |
They all disappear, and the chalkboard once again stands in front of the green background with the words “AROUND 500 CALORIES” on it. The “mindful choices” label is attached. |
|
NARRATOR: Of course, we’re all gonna indulge a bit now and then and, hey, it’s cool! Some clapping and cheering. |
Now chocolate custard in a cone is in front of a white background. Text appears with a blue ribbon ON SCREEN TEXT: Well EARNED |
