Illegal Advertising

What is the advertising where you watch the commercial and then it quickly says something like "DRINK COKE" on the screen and it makes you want to drink coke. Does anyone have any videos of this type of advertising?

There's something like that for sprite too, except it's made clear to the audience that the ad tries using subliminal messages.

Those Sprite ads are really creepy too, and the new "Lymon" tastes just about the same, a bit disspointing really.
