While watching “The View” today, we happened across the following commercial for Wishbone salad dressing that, for whatever reason, used the song “Bump” by Spank Rock (just the chorus, not the verses, for some mysterious reason):

Apparently, Wishbone’s ad agency saw the commercial for Kraft salad dressing that used a version of the Flaming Lips’ “Yeah Yeah Yeah Song” and felt they had to stay competitive within the crucial demographic of indie rock nerds who also put a lot of dressing on their salads. It could be a coincidence, but two indie singles from 2006 sampled in the background of two separate salad dressing commercials in a two-month span?

Check out the Flaming Lips one after the jump and let us know if our conspir-indie theory seems too farfetched:

Thanks to someone over at Brooklyn Vegan for spotting the commercial too, so we knew we weren’t just hearing things. Because I often see salad dressing commercials and believe I am hearing a different song than the song that is actually playing.
