Beyond The Barrio: Two Men Kissing Over Mayo Is Kind Of Queer, Says The United Kingdom

Heinz Deli Mayonnaise has decided to pull a commercial for its delicious, white, creamy, thick condiment after it created an uproar from the mayo-guzzling British public.

Oh, slather it on a hot dog and shove it in sideways, people. You don’t find this sort of silly intolerance in, say, Mexico. It’s a funny commercial and there’s nothing inherently disgusting about two slender, white men kissing. In a vat of mayonnaise. In slow motion. While Minnie Riperton’s “Lovin’ You” playing in the background.

    That was as inoffensive as ham and cheese on white bread. WithOUT mayo!

    I find this offensive, also very inappropriate esp. for children. Bravo to the parents in Britain who called them out on this.

    @ lolai: Before you peace out, I’ve got to ask: What, exactly, do you find offensive about this? How does two men kissing — in real life or in a comedic advertisement — have anything at all to do with you or with your kids?

    It is offensive to my religious beliefs. Also, it is not appropriate for my children who just want to watch cartoons, not a gay commercial.
    i think common decency is being lost. peace ouuut.
