People are talking boycott after "naughty" commercial airs during the big game.

Offended consumers are now calling for an outright boycott of all Kraft Heinz products in response to a risqué commercial promoting a new line of frozen foods.


Since 1973 "big" commercials have been as much apart of the big game as terrible half-time shows, and for advertisers the stakes can be just as high as the two teams on the field.

As one of the most watched events on television a successful commercial can make or break a brand.

While the competition for the "best" commercial is fierce sometimes having the most controversial ad can be just as effective in getting your products name out there. As they say there is no such thing as bad publicity.

If customers have their way though food giant Kraft Heinz may start to regret all the bad publicity surrounding its latest commercial.

To promote a new line of frozen meals called Devour Foods the company aired a racy "food porn" commercial that many viewers found extremely offensive.

But they didn't stop there.

Devour also produced an "uncensored" version of the spot that was deemed "too hot for TV."

When the ad was banned by CBS, Devour released a statement on Twitter defending it.

They even ran ads on an actual pornography website.

But an organization called Culture Reframed doesn't think porn addiction is a laughing matter.

The group which "builds resilience and resistance to hypersexualized media and porn" calls porn the "public health crisis of the digital age."

"Porn addiction is widely widely shown to destroy the individual, the partners, and the children of addicts," said Dr. Gail Dines, president and CEO of Culture Reframed in a statement released in response to the commercial.

"To promote porn use and make light of porn addiction is the height of irresponsibility and we call on Kraft Heinz to provide resources to groups preventing porn addiction."

The group is now calling for a boycott of all Kraft Heinz products, and they might not be the only ones.





And those who weren't offended were just grossed out.






But Culture Reframed may be fighting a losing battle to boycott the company since many found the commercial hilarious.






Good or bad publicity, Devour's "food porn" commercial certainly got people talking and probably earned them a bunch of new customers.

The type of new customers they are getting though might be a whole other problem.

Trump Blasted After Warning Gas Stations To Drop Prices 'Immediately' In Threatening Social Media Rant

President Donald Trump was criticized after telling gas retailers that they need to lower their prices to $2.50 per gallon "immediately" or face "big problems," prompting many critics to suggest he is panicking as discontent toward his administration grows amid fallout over the Iran war and a nationwide affordability crisis.

A recent Gallup poll found that 55 percent of respondents felt their finances were worsening, a level of pessimism exceeding that seen during both the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2008 financial crisis. This comes as the highly unpopular war in Iran continues to rage, sending gas prices surging. Americans have spent an additional $59 billion on fuel since Trump launched the war.

MAGA Is Having A 'DEI' Meltdown Over A Mixed Race Character In 'Toy Story 5'—And Fans Are Having None Of It

For a franchise about a toy cowboy, a delusional space ranger, and a potato with removable facial features, Toy Story has never been particularly concerned with strict realism. Yet somehow, a mixed-race child with curly hair in Toy Story 5 is what sent parts of MAGA into full meltdown mode.

In the latest installment of Pixar's beloved franchise, audiences are introduced to Blaze Manoukian, a young girl who lives on a farm, loves animals, and becomes an important part of Bonnie's story. Blaze is also Disney's first half-Black, half-Armenian character.

Last Week Tonight host John Oliver mocked Fox News host Jesse Watters for sharing unverified video of alleged "vandals" of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and claiming that liberal media would claim that the people who were seen reaching into the pool "dropped their wedding ring."

The renovation of the Reflecting Pool has become a debacle, marked by recurring algae blooms, workers resorting to pouring hydrogen peroxide into the water to combat the problem, and a political blame game in which some Republicans have attempted to pin responsibility for the mess on Democrats.
