This is an example of consumer generated content, it is by no means endorsed or approved by Heinz and I don’t think they’ll like it very much that it’s out in the open, but since it’s been circulating quite a bit, I thought I’d blog it here to share it with the rest of the admosphere. I’m not quite sure what to think of it. It’s not shocking but the least you could say is that it makes you frown just a little bit. As a direct consequence of the frowning, you might question the mental health of the creator of the faux ad, whose identity remains unknown. Freaky. It reminds me of a famous line Barney Gumble once said in The Simpsons: “Just plug it into my vain”. My apologies for the low quality if the image, but like I’ve said: it’s been going around very much and that leaves its scars.
Thanks, Ben.

I think it originally comes from a photoshop contest at Worth1000.com.

Hmm. I’ll dig through their archives and see if I can find it there.

what exactly is the message in this spoof? Other than is being odd imagery, it says nothing. Or at least I don’t get it.

I don’t know Steve. Honestly, my guess is as good as yours. It looked odd, which is why I posted it.
