The new Quesada ad campaign aims to end the idea that authentic Mexican food is limited to Tex-Mex and chips and salsa. With the tagline "Real Mexicans know where to get real Mexican," the new campaign features various Mexican iconography, including a family of masked wrestlers and a skeleton sitting at a table (representing the Day of The Dead).
I have never eaten at a Quesada so I really have no idea how authentic their cuisine is. Toronto's BBDO advertising agency came up with the new Quesada ad campaign--it remains to be seen how many "real Mexicans" it actually attracts.
