Crunchy Nut "Trolley" advert, your thoughts?
Don't know about you guys, but I think the advert is just wrong, to the point where I have actually complained about it to the ASA.
If you wish to do the same...

In the Kelloggs' Crunchy nut "trolley" advert I feel it is in appropriate to:
1) Show a baby happily bouncing down a set of stairs - this could easily encourage children to push babies/children in trolleys down stairs.. The potential for injury/death is quite considerable for any human let alone an infant.
2) I feel it is ridiculous to imply that anything, in particular a box of Crunchy Nut is more important then a babies life.

TBH,
I have to say,If you would in anyway be encouraged by the advert your a prat and even as a kid i would not do it!
In the above bit is the same shit as,Game's 18+ one's and then some guy go's and kill's someone and then blame's the game for it,I think the term is a nanny state!

i dont see much wrong with it.
As the baby was toppling over the first step i felt wierd as i have kids and imagined maybe it could be them.
Although i didnt think it was bad. Certainly not enough to complain
And yes blokes face is funny!!

It is an advertisement for a product not a suggestion that people should not look after their babies responsibly.
There are so many people in the world that wish to twist the whole meaning behind advertisements.
Some I admit are borderline but it never once crossed my mind that if I was in that situation I should definitely save the Crunchy nut.
You sad sad sad little man!

I was going to go for a swim at the gym, but I dont think its safe for me to get behind the wheel of my car because of the rage I'm in after watching that advert.

lol, no.. Its the only thing I've ever officially complained about. I can just picture some kid doing it to another kid, thinking its funny and safe. Its shit for anyone to lose a child.
