Commercials that bug you?

Yes, all the food commercials that stress how huge the item is, how many pounds of meat, how many layers, whatever. Has nobody noticed the obesity epidemic in this country? More does not equal better when it comes to food portions.

You know, there are benefits to having ADHD. I am bored after about two seconds. And, there hasn't been any commercials that keep my attention.

Actually, there was one a long time ago that I would actually stop and look at because I thought the program would be back on. It was a calm commercial. The music was calm, the person talking had a calm, soothing voice. It wasn't louder like normal commercials. It was for a organic line of food at a grocery store, their own brand. For me to remember the commercial and then remember what it was for, well, that is amazing. Usually, they don't catch my attention and I ignore them.

There is one commercial I've seen well watching the biggest loser for the prepackaged weight loss meal plan. They say 'for less than most people spend on food a month' but then in little print at the bottom *does not include grocery items*, it's either cheaper, or it isn't. If it is even with the average cost of groceries, than say that, if it's more expensive, don't say it's less.
