okay so their first set of ads was sort of witty… comparing cholesterol-loaded foods with family members similarly shaped to the food - both of which lead to death-causing heart attacks.

then the ads just got outrageous. i got so tired of looking at oddly shaped people that resembled breakfast foods, or hot dogs or dairy products.

and then they just stopped caring all together… I think the words “utterly lazy” is a severe understatement. below is one of their latest ads that just got pulled:

after all that, it turns out all that drug doesn’t even work. the only real side effect was causing people to associate foods with loved ones - causing a steady rise in cannibalism.
