The Los Angeles Rams narrowly edged out the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 to take the spoils in Super Bowl 56 last night, but for those involved in media and marketing, the annual sporting extravaganza is worth watching for another reason entirely... the commercials.

This year's event saw ads from consumer goods giants such as PepsiCo, Anheuser-Busch InBev, Procter & Gamble and others. Here are some of the stand-outs, as selected by the ESM team.

Cheetos And Doritos
