21. I watched "Iron Chef" the other night and they kept popping up a box that said "Ruby Tuesday" in it. I thought that was kind of strange... 22. No, the YouTube video was NOT altered. I watched that episode of Iron Chef the first time it aired and I saw it myself. 23. I'm a huge, huge, huge Food Network fan. Iron Chef is actually one of my faves. I've never noticed anything like that before. That show never would make me want anything to eat after viewing some of the things that they are cooking with. I just enjoy the competition. What I'm trying to figure out is why they would be doing any MickeyD's advertising. How insane is that?? 24. I saw nothing in the show . Sublimal ads have been around for a long time . 25. Grow up and get over it! Who cares! I have better things to do with my time!!! 26. I watch the Food Channel to learn, enjoy, and smile. It's a fun place to watch and when I watch, which is often, I am absorbed with the food and the hosts and I don't look for anything BUT the shows. If you see something other than than the talent and the magic and the spectacular results, you aren't paying attention. 27. A McDonalds ad on Food Network almost seems contradictory. I watch the channel with some frequency, and I can't even recall that burger chains advertisements. It most likely was an error from the local cable provider, inserting their advertising at the wrong point. Having worked as a video editor and a live shot director. Accidents happen. I certainly don't see someone watching Iron Chef, jumping up and getting a Big Mac when they are watching something exotic being prepared. 28. I agree with Pete's comments about the Travel Channel. Awesome food shows, and global travel shows that feature native dishes, are in abundance there. Three cheers for the Travel Channel! 29. are you kidding me? Who cares???????????? OMG we all know Mic D's is trash food. what are you all so excited about 30. I heard of sublimal advertising many years ago. I was under the impression that is was outlawed. I think it is very dangerous and could be used to brain wash folks. 31. I know someone who works editing video for the Scripps Company, which includes Food Network, DIY, HGTV, and the Fine Living Channel. Scripps is ridiculously picky about how their shows look and will not air them if even the slightest thing is wrong with the quality of the video. It is not unusual for an editor to have to submit his work a 32. Altered fake 33. If that clip from You Tube is supposed to show a subliminal McDonald's ad, it wasn't very subminimal to me.It was quite evident. Yes, it was inappropriate. 34. Ok... we're bitching about a food commercial, as say, I dunno, condoms? You can't watch TV without a condom commercial, a birth control pill commercial, or a nude video/"steamy" chat commercial. Instead of taking garbage, moral-bashing commercials off TV, we're getting all pissy about McDonalds. They pay to have their product plugged, and if you can't keep your hands out of the deep fat fryer because of it, don't watch tv. Everything has advertising. Your computer's name is printed on it, your shoes have a name and logo sticking out like a sore thumb, even singers throw their name out in a song. And yes, I am guilty of this too, but we are talking about commercials instead of things that matter, like war, or family, or pollution. And I already know you think you can debunk me by pointing out spelling errors, which is moronic, but hey, whatever makes you feel good. 35. mcdonalds food is gross anyway, and i never ever eat it, UNLESS, HOWEVER, i gotta add, if i geta really bad sore throat, (not laryngitis, just a sore throat) the salt and starch content of a small order of fries will bring temporary relief. weird, but true. 36. "Are we sure that this YouTube video wasn't altered? That the person didn't ADD the ad to create a story that wasn't there?" 37. It was mentioned appox 3 months on NPR that 1 second commercials were coming. 38. You're all wrong. McDonald's created the entire "fake" post on Youtube, so that everyone will do exactly what we're doing. REACTING. 39. hhmmm? I seen that episode and I didn't notice the mcdonalds ad spool through. But I guess that now explains why I have been chomping down bigmacs everyday and gained 120 pounds. |
