Gee Who Saw This Coming!? A Million Moms Pissed at Skittles

A million moms don’t like the Skittles ad.  This comes as a shock to no one.  Here’s what they had to say:

“We are not sure of Skittles’ thought process behind their new ad, but if they are attempting to offend customers, they have succeeded. Skittles’ newest “Walrus” commercial includes a teen girl making out with a walrus. The two are on a sofa in an apartment kissing on the mouth when her shocked roommate walks in on them. Parents find this type of advertising inappropriate and unnecessary. Does Skittles’ have our children’s best interest in mind? Skittles candies are for all ages, but their target market is children.”

Note to moms— all advertising is unnecessary.  And a company selling packaged chemically flavored sugar pellets does not have your children’s best interests in mind.  Do you really need a Walrus to show up in the ad to tell you a candy company doesn’t have your kids best interest in mind?  They’re selling skittles.   Here’s the ad they’re upset with.
