Gay Commercial: Heinz Deli Mayo

[reviews_and_ramblings]

This commercial has now been banned on UK television after only a week, to many complaints.

The tag line is "Mayo With a New York Deli Flavor"... I believe that the commerical wants to show that everyone can be a good housekeeper and making sandwich like a NY Deli, if they use this mayo.

Oh, I reemmber, lots of people, including me, wrote to Heinz, telling them not to bow to the pressure and to keep it running, but alas, they pulled it anyway. I think it's funny and cute, and plays on several layers. Okay, so it's a bit silly the "mum" thing, it would have been better if they had just made them a couple, but still ...

Well in many minds if you are an housekeeping and are a good cook, you are the "mum" ;-) But yes, it's rather cute. Elisa
