Start Your Day Off Right with Some Granola Bar Social Media Fun
posted on by Bamboo Dong
It started out fairly simply. Twitter user @elkasaurus was sharing his love for Nature Valley granola bars:
Starting my day off with a @NatureValley granola bar!

And after their affable response, Twitter user @ER_nut sent the granola bar company Nature Valley a charming question: "Who's your favourite Love Live!?"
To everyone's surprise, the Nature Valley Twitter sent the following in response:
@ER_nut That's a toughie. We love Honoka's spirit - but we also love Hanayo's origami skills. Who's your favorite?

Since then, whichever genius PR person is sitting behind the desk at Nature Valley has been delighting anime fans with their quick improvisational wit and Wiki prowess, serving up amazing marketing-focused, yet completely entertaining Tweets like the following:
@TEDDlURSA We always eat #granolabars while watching #anime. One is not the same without the other.

@LizzyBettan @awacon @MomoCon We can wax poetic about #anime. Until our hair turns green. Just like our Oats & Honey package.

.@FUNimation None of the above. But we did emerge from a long winter of #polarvortexes and #icecaves. Thank you for noticing us, Senpai.

@gokuffy We like to root for the underdog. So Mutta it is.

Is it true? Did all of our #anime friends on Anitwitter just follow us? Banzai!

And of course, it was only a matter of time before the fanart came:

We don't know who's behind the social media marketing at Nature Valley, but we applaud his or her good nature, no pun intended, and for the good cheer and laughs they've been spreading all morning.
