Mini Wheats and Infidelity

Ok so I just need to rant quick, and it's probably really stupid, but I can't stand the blueberry/ strawberry mini-wheat commercial!!!!!!! I'm not sure if you know what I'm talking about but it starts with this cartoon blueberry singing to a mini-wheat about how much it wants to be with it and then this b##ch a$$ strawberry pops up saying how she wants the mini-wheat too.... what's the end solution??? oh, the mini-wheat with just take both the feminine berries for itself. Now, I know it's just a cereal commercial with a catchy tune, but I honestly think it's a perfect example of what is wrong with the media and advertising. First, this teaches kids absolutely nothing about making decisions or sharing.Second, it says that the mini- wheat can have whatever it wants and the berries are just happy to be with the stupid chunk of frosting-covered wheat crap!!! It bothers me that in this commercial the min-wheat is a male and the berries are female, making it seem ok for men to take and have more than one woman as well as showing that the women should be ok with it as long as they get to be with the mini-wheat. Every single time I have seen this advertisement on the tv, it makes me very angry. I don't appreciate the messages being displayed in this advertisement that is aimed at children (cartoon, catchy song, etc.) or having to witness it myself. okay, rant over, for now. 

Night all and much love,

Some Girl ;)

P.S testing new ways to sign off. oh and here's a link to the commercial (well a youtube video of the commercial):
