The Power of Marketing


Reuben Amy and I were watching the UConn vs WVA game tonight. During a break a commercial for some fast food came on. The ad boasted a huge portion of fried chicken with fries drink etc. etc. I said "Ew. That looks so gross. Reuben what do you think of that?" I didn't expect a response but Reuben who had been intent on attacking Amy's computer stopped, turned to the screen, examined the picture, then looked at me and said Mmm! Yum! Yum! He even licked his lips with enthusiasm! So much for my influence. 5 seconds of an ad and he's turned carnivore.

Sounds like he is his father's son in that respect...

Hilarious. And that picture is gross. It gives fast food a bad name.
