Heinz Kiss Off


The Heinz Deli Mayo television commercial (above) featuring two guys kissing was taken off the air after receiving more than 200 complaints in one week from a bunch of...insecure homophobic bible thumpers...oh, and Bill O'Reilly...
Also, a backwards thinking religious group called the American Family Association issued this statement: "We suggest you forward this to all your family and friends letting them know of the push for homosexual marriage by Heinz" ...They said nothing when George W. Bush kissed a Saudi prince...
Other condiment complainers said that the commercial was "offensive" and "unsuitable to be seen by children" and also forced them to talk about same-sex relationships with their kids. Explain real life to your children? That's obscene!

Heinz UK said,"It is our policy to listen to consumers."

British lawmakers filed a House of Commons motion saying the decision to pull the ad was "ill-considered" and called on Heinz to reconsider.
