It seems McCains have pulled this advertising campaign after complaints that it was highly offensive

(Aside; It isn't)



Edit it seems to be another clip that caused the stink...

Chpz

But I can't find a version

Well that's lovely and depressing, well done public. The youtube comments are obviously primordial:

QuoteIf I was ever going to think of buying these chips I won't now. All I see is about 10 seconds of this ad and it's so loud and raucous and irrelevant, I really can't stand it! Such a shame after so many good ads McCain have had in the past. (And it's not because it's a drag queen. It's just too loud and totally irrelevant!!)

Just ANYTHING but gay or trans or not presenting as straight people. Literally any excuse to whinge about gay or trans or not presenting as straight people existing. I fucking hate these small minded bigoted cunts and I hate that they have been so enabled now.

I think nfah86 was simply saying she wants more product focus, if for example they'd also made at least a passing mention of McCain Flavour Maker Skin On Garlic & Herb Chimichurri Fries - Crispy Skin-on Fries, perfectly paired with sachets of Garlic and Herb Chimichurri seasoning. Simply shake over the flavour and oven cook for a deliciously easy way to enjoy restaurant flavours at home.  Goes great with steak, chicken or fish - she'd quite rightly feel more comfortable.

So many good ads McCain have had.  Such a shame.  They should go back to good ads.  There were so many.

I need good ads for oven chips.

Zero Gravitas

Are you pig fucking stupid or have you forgotten about "Daddy or Chips?"!?

The advert does send a very anti-greedy-balding-phimotic-father message, but it's handled in a wholesome way.

Why can't we go back to the good old days of proper entertainment like Lily Savage, Cupid Stunt and Mrs Browns Boys, they knew what a woman was.

Glebe

At least we've moved on. In the old days you wouldn't have seen Danny la Rue advertising chicken dippers.

I cannot fucking stand Baga so personally I'm completely fine with this.

Look at the imagery in the McCain Global Foods sigil. What do you see?



The ill-hearted amongst us may fall foul of temptation and allow themselves to see a rising sun casting rays of golden sunshine over abundant farmland (populated by a flock of "early birds"). It's enticing to see this as nothing more than an incantation for wealth and prosperity, but we must not allow ourselves to become bewitched by spectral mirages! Those accustomed to the dark arts can see the destructive nature of the sorcerer's true divine will: a globe rises on the horizon, marred with the harbingers of misfortune and the mark of McCain. This glittering globe of gold looms above once-Edenic land, over scarlet trees, across the site of the first murder, and expands outwards, submerging all in its shadow. This forbidden "apple of the earth" represents that which grows nearer, that which shall engulf all with its cackling flames, that which shall turn the majesty of our land into an arid, infertile desert. You reap what you sow.

well, I for one hope that it is, in fact, chips

Blimey, thought they were dead from the title.

Nah she's just thick as mince it seems:

More. 👏 Left. 👏 Leaning. 👏 Oven. 👏 Chip. 👏 Hawkers. 👏

Triple Cooked Gastro Chips deserve better representation, They're McCain's posh pub chips!

They're as indulgent as you'd expect: made from the best potatoes, thick-cut and triple-cooked. These are proper pub chips brought to the home.

For best results use a DEEP edged baking tray WITHOUT HOLES and preheat the tray for 5 minutes.

Can't believe the wokes just invented drag to turn me gay. 1066-2019 all man easily identified by tweed, pipe, cap. Now it's all gay, slide-whistling nancies with extra nipples, and yet I'M the "racists'???

Goldentony

Wrote an aticle on why to vote Conservative, YASS QUEEN'd Teresa May, voted for her, spread a bunch of lying bullshit about Corbyn and then mentioned she'd changed her mind way way after any of it mattered without an acknowledgement of any of the damage they'd joined in with helping create, so a very destructive and annoying tit with a hand in the hell we live in, but not deserving of this so utimately I suppose fuck absolutely everybody involved for different reasons. Cheers.

Can't even behold the wonder of a big juicy HETEROSEXUAL cock these days without seeing facsimile labia hanging off the underside. Et tu, chips?

Zero Gravitas

What does proper pub chips brought to the home., mean other than being tantalizingly close to an Aimé Césaire quote?

Are pubs famous for their chips? Or are they reproducing the experience of a gastropub shoving a bag full of Brakes™ potato oblong #23 into an industrial oil free fryer and tumbling them until the timer goes off. But with a home oven?

Shadow puppetry of a shadow puppet show.

I think it's a plea to not murder your family since when you're at the pub you arent at home having your soul crushed

Well I do want chips now. And I had fish and chips for dinner.

Zero Gravitas

I know what you mean, sometimes you just want something hot and tasty – and quick. McCain Quick Chips are made with top quality potatoes and a dash of sunflower of oil. Made for the microwave, they're great when you want to cook in a hurry or fancy a quick snack.

Why, I'm off to buy some now! Perhaps the crinkle-cut variety. 50% extra free at Iceland!

Chips are like crisps. They are so fucking good I could just eat a bucket of them like a horse.
