List of Sminster ads/1990s

Description
The following ad was released in North America and El Kadsre, and featured Sminster's mascot, Smits-Man, comparing Sminster's popular Smits-Pizza to McDonald's' McPizza in a cook-off with a Sminster chef against a McDonald's chef to see who can make the fastest and most delicious pizza. In the end, the Sminster chef wins and Smits-Man congratulates him on doing a great job. The advert was made to mock the infamous McPizza menu item at McDonald's.

Transcript
(Ad opens up with Smits-Man walking in on the right and enjoying a slice of Smits-Pizza, he notices the camera after 3 seconds. A small Sminster logo is seen behind a white panel for 2 seconds before fading away)


 * Smits-Man: Y'know it's a/an rule that fast food restaurant managers can't eat their franchise's own food, but, who could resist a/the slice of Smits-Pizza? Now, McDonald's says that they do pizza better at their restaurants, but is it true? Let's just see...

(A brief drum roll can be heard as the camera quickly zooms out for 2 seconds to reveal two chefs, one wearing a Sminster work outfit, and the other wearing a McDonald's work outfit)


 * Smits-Man: In a cook-off!

(The scene then tile transitions to a cooking show-like background with fast food equipment inside, the stage is divided into two, the left is Sminster, and the other is McDonald's)


 * Smits-Man: We are going to see if McDonald's' McPizza is more superior than our Smits-Pizza, or if it's the other way around! We will compare our pizza's cooking time and taste to McPizza's. Fastest time and greatest taste wins! Go!

(The chefs begin cooking pizza as a panorama of the two chefs preparing the pizza are shown. The Sminster chef seems to be winning while the McDonald's chef has a hard time building it. After 7 seconds, the panorama ends and a dual-screen is shown, which shows the Sminster side's pizza on the left, and the McPizza on the right, timers are below the two pizzas, the one on the left screen says, "5 MINUTES", while the one on the right screen says, "11 MINUTES")


 * Smits-Man: (narrating) And it looks like McDonald's was bested by Sminster through cook time. (Scene cuts to a table with a woman sitting down, the McPizza and Smits-Pizza are seen on the table. respectively, the Sminster chef, Smits-Man, and the McDonald's chef are seen standing by the table) All we need now is the taste test so we can declare the winner! (to woman) Try the McPizza first, see what you think.

(The lady takes a slice of the McPizza, eats it, and after a few bites, she swallows it in disgust and puts the slice back on the table)


 * Woman: Disgusting.
 * Smits-Man: Now she will try the Smits-Pizza.

(The woman tastes a slice of the Smits-Pizza, and her eyes widen after she takes a couple of bites)


 * Woman: This is delicious! No wonder people can't resist these.
 * Smits-Man: (raises the Sminster chef's hand in the air as the McDonald's chef walks away in disbelief) And the winner is the Smits-Pizza by Sminster! Ha-ha! Sorry, D Mickey, but I guess we winny!

(The Smits-Man laughs as the same Sminster panel from the opening reappears for 3 seconds before the commercial ends. End of transcript)

Description
The following ad aired in El Kadsre in December 1999, in the lead-up to Christmas. It promoted the chain's brand new 'Xmas Smits-Burger Family Meal', and encouraged families to buy the meal if they failed at cooking Christmas dinner.

Transcript
(The ad opens with a shot of a snowy house for five seconds as the camera slowly zooms in. An instrumental version of 'Jingle Bells' can be heard playing in the background, until the scene cuts to a close-up of an oven in a kitchen. Smoke can be seen rising from the oven, a smoke alarm is heard beeping, and a pair of arms can be seen opening the oven door and pulling out a burned turkey. A text fades in on-screen in all-caps, reading: "ARE YOUR HOLIDAYS NOT GOING AS PLANNED?")


 * Narrator: Are your holidays not going as planned?

(The scene cuts to a red background with a dark vignette, and the music from before resumes. The meal is seen in front of the background, and the camera pans around different shots of the meal)


 * Narrator: Well, fear not! Treat the family to the new Xmas Smits-Burger Family Meal from Sminster, instead. Our brand new Xmas Smits-Burger, with regular Smits-Fries, an slice of our famous Smits-Pizza, Smits-Gingerbread Men, and any two-litre drink, for $5.59.

(The camera zooms out to show a full shot of the meal. Another text, reading: "$5.59 EACH", fades in at the top left corner of the screen, and a disclaimer, reading: "Available at participating Sminster restaurants. Limited time only.", is seen at the bottom. The scene cuts back to the oven in the kitchen with the door left open, which is still smoking. Another text is seen on-screen, reading: "PROBLEM SOLVED".


 * Narrator: Problem solved.

(The scene cuts to a black background, where the Sminster logo is seen in the centre along with the slogan, and the web address is seen at the bottom)


 * Narrator: Sminster. Now You're Eating!
