More from the world of advertisting
I should have added this to my last post but sod it I'll take a fresh blog to have a quick rant. Last night I saw an advert for a product that actually made my jaw drop I will give you the basic voice over: "For children who really, really hate crusts. New Kingsmill Crusts Away" Dear God what's next? "For children who really, really hate school new - Bunking Off" "For children who really, really hate their fathers new - Patricide". Surely it's hard enough for parents to deal with kid's food likes and dislikes without the food industry (and with Kingsmill I use the word food loosely) adding to the problem.
I'm no fan of victorian parenting techniques but when I read of this ridiculous pandering I swear I can feel my muttonchops growing.

Good grief! He has a blog at last.
There is a circular logic:
Children don't like crusts, because quite frankly most bought bread is shit.
Don't worry, we'll cut the crusts off.
Now what we're selling is fluffy flour & yeast extract paste!
Argh....
