UK: Heinz Ad Offends Viewers with Male Kiss. Sandwich-eating children have two daddys who kiss goodbye over breakfast. When the father of the house gets his sandwich he bids goodbye with the words: "See you tonight, love." -- The man then asks: "Hey, ain't you forgetting something?" -- The father then gives him a peck on the lips and leaves the house with the man calling after him: "Love you. Come straight home from work, sweet cheeks." It is not allowed to be shown in or around children's programming, however, due to restrictions placed on advertising products which are high in fat, salt or sugar. [Oh well now, that's a huge comfort. Thank goodness for fruitcake rules concerned with diet more than morality.] Ad is about the second most complained about. No indication that it will be removed however. [Now if those college girls had been wolf-whistling at lesbians there probably would be no PC police urging legislation to stop it. True to form for Teresa Heinz and her husband Sen. John Kerry.]
