Why is Mumsnet so obsessed with Baobab?

Why so many baobab adverts? Is big-baobab paying for them?

Good question!

I'm not prepared to actually click on the ads to find out.

Thank god it’s not just me wondering! I’m not clicking weird stuff on here though.

They just really hate The Little Prince. 😂

They did a product test on a brand of Baobab recently, and did a Q&A.

Threads here and here.

I've no idea what it is & never seen any adverts for it.

I don't want to Google as I will then be bombarded with adverts.

I made that mistake on here with 'scrunch bum leggings' 😂 I was bombarded with targeted ads for the things.

I do know what baobab is. I've seen lots of trees in Africa. But I'm not obsessed with baobab and like @Portmore I don't suddenly want lots of ads!

I shouldn't have mentioned it. I'm getting mid-thread adds for it now as well as the thread ads

I knew it was a tree, didn't know it had fruit. Generally I'd look this up, but the insistence that I do is putting me off!

Someone is definitely paying. Waste of money as I’ve never seen it in the supermarket
