I just watched the Heinz ad. HOW is this causing such a fuss? The commercial is a RIOT - for a minute there, I thought the deli man was Robert DeNero - and there's nothing icky about it.

Sigh.

Yes it's all a bit rediculous.

Especially since they have been making such commercials since 2000. This is the 5th or 6th one.

So now Heinz has pissed off the right wingnuts and since it pulled the commercial, also pissed off the gay community.

Kind of a double whammy for them. Now the english group Stonewall is calling for a boycott of all Heinz products.

It's a mess over a funny commercial.

Crazy times we live in.
