How do you feel about this commercial?
 
It was not shown in the U.S. but was in London and got taken off the air. 
 
Are we ready for this type of advertising?
 
The link has a video of it.

I hve NO problems with the commercial. Reminds me a little of  Le Cage aux Folles- The two men were obviously in a loving committed relationship. What I found VERY objectionable was the one saying, "Straight home from work, Sweetcheeks." Sounded clingy, controlling and untrusting. kind of the opposite of what I think a healthy relationship should be.

If it had been aired on our television I would have been upset. I have no issues with gay partners, etec but I don't want to see it on commercials.

I truly don't believe the majority of the public is ready for this.

Whoa! It doesn't bother me personally,I said "Whoa!"because of the reactions I'm sure it'd get here where I live.
This is the Bible Belt.I can imagine a huge boycott of Heinz products(not to mention a whole lotta ANGRY Christian parents & g.parents)

Certainly the majority of viewers find it offensive so I don't think it is in good taste.
 
To me it is unneccesary and does nothing to sell the product.
It wasn't amusing but it could have been  if the partner had given a quick peck on the cheek that no one expected.

I agree with Joan, that this wasn't necessary to sell the product.

Would not make me want to go out and buy the product (but then I do not like mayo either).  It was kind of cute with the kids calling the one "Mum" but that was about it.
