I see this on TV and frankly was shocked. It opens the doors for so much on TV ads....not sure I want to go there. There is another ad with a blonde who is supposed to be beautiful, an is eating food with her full pink painted lips as the star of the ad. I hate this one, but I can see how it sould be seductive to some.

It's pretty risque and I can see how that would put some people off. I liked it a lot, though. It was really well done and pretty funny, with the risque stuff mostly done for comedic effect. Or at least, that's how it came off to me and my Y chromosomes.

It did nothing for me. Took too long to get to the point. I clicked off after 1:15 min.

In some agreement. I thought it was amusing, but it needed some serious editing. It could have accomplished more and more effectively in half the time.

There are tons of risque commericals in a wide range from tasteless to clever, but I haven't seen many food ads of that ilk, which is why I posted it here (with a warning). Anyone else seen any well done humorous food ads?

Ha ha, my GF agrees that the ad is sexy, but hype is cheap--what no one has pointed out here is that Bertolli oil is not 100% olive oil, let alone "extra virgin" as noted by the USDA. It's like US politics--if the candidate only pays a lot for prime time sound-bite ads proclaiming how great he is, voters will buy it. Have fun viewing the ad, but buy California Olive Ranch or some other oil that is the real thing.

Thanks for posting this, Peter - I was entranced watching it.
