JUST Egg Launches National ?Really Good Eggs' Brand Campaign
Eat Just, Inc., a company that applies cutting-edge science and technology to create healthier, more sustainable foods, today announced the launch of a bold new multi-million-dollar brand campaign for its popular plant-based JUST Egg products. The "Really Good Eggs" campaign kicks off this week with a series of ads distinctively narrated by comedian and JUST Egg mega-fan J.B. Smoove, known for his role on HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm," which returns for an 11th season this fall.
Each "Really Good Eggs" spot puts viewers in the center of a different morning scramble, while challenging presumptions about plant-based food. Viewers meet Wayne, who had a big night out and just wants a "bomb-ass egg sandwich;" Jane, who is "up too f***ing early" making eggs for toddler Tommy; and Kelly, who "after years of swiping right on human garbage" is smitten with the man of her dreams who happens to be vegan. The ads will air on broadcast and cable television in major markets like Chicago, Los Angeles and New York City and will appear nationally on connected TV platforms like Hulu as well as on digital video services like YouTube.

"Our ads aim at the truth. People can't care about the health of the planet or their family all of the time. We want to disarm people and their presuppositions about plant-based foods with insightful humor and irreverent swagger," said Tom Rossmeissl, Head of Global Marketing at Eat Just. "We want to capture real, often hectic modern breakfast moments through a diverse lens that broadens perceptions and makes everyone feel that no matter where they are on their dietary journey, if they like really good eggs, they're with us."
Buzzworthy "Really Good Eggs" billboards will appear throughout the fall in cities across America and in-store and curbside advertising will reach shoppers at thousands of brick-and-mortar retail locations. Additional activities include paid influencer campaigns on popular social media platforms, search engine marketing, sponsored e-commerce search, e-mail marketing and more. The campaign was developed in partnership with New York City-based creative studio Mythology.
"Really Good Eggs" is confident, unapologetic and signals the progress that the plant-based food industry has made in recent years by making delicious, affordable products that appeal to a broad and growing community of consumers. Eat Just aptly unveiled the campaign at the 2021 Good Food Conference, the world's most in-depth, cross-sector gathering focused on the power and potential of alternative proteins to fundamentally change food and agriculture.
Today's news comes as JUST Egg celebrates several key milestones. JUST Egg products are now available in approximately 24,000 retail points of distribution and more than 1,000 foodservice locations and the company is nearing the plant-based equivalent of 200 million eggs sold. JUST Egg is No. 1 in household spend and consumer loyalty among branded eggs and is in 1.3 million U.S. households, up 45 percent since January.1 Recent launches in South Africa and South Korea build on the brand's growing international presence, which also includes Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore and China.
