I have walked by this ad in the DC metro every single day for the past several weeks, and today, I finally decided to take a photo.

Why, you ask?  From the first moment I saw the poster, it immediately reminded me of the packaging for Old Bay seasoning.

I happen to love Old Bay—it’s great in shrimp salad, crab cakes and on potato chips. But I’m left wondering, did the Justice Federal Credit Union intentionally choose the same color combo and design layout of a beloved, versatile spice mix for their fall ad campaign? I mean, I could sort of understand if the financial institution were Chesapeake Bank and Trust.

C’mon, this had to be on purpose. Right?
