Arby's, your new commrecial is not exactly enticing.

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

Arby’s is advertising that their chicken sandwiches are now made with “100% natural chicken.”

Um, fantastic.

But as an erstwhile Arby’s Cordon Blue consumer, I gotta ask . . . WHAT WAS I EATING THEN?!

And, sure, I could go to Arby’s today and get a sandwich made with 100% natural chicken . . . only to be watching the TV next month and see a commercial that informs me that Arby’s has switched to making their sandwiches with only 100% all natural BREAD.

I mean, fer crissakes, they’ve announced that their New Arby’s Chicken Naturals[sup]TM[/sup] Cordon Bleu is made with 100% natural chicken, but there’s ham on there, too! HAM! If they think that their new 100% natural chicken is exciting and unusual enough to warrant a national ad campaign, their silence on the composition of their ham is a bit damning, don’t you think!?

What they mean is their chickens are 100% grain fed and no phosphate fillers were added at the processing plant.
Still, it does make one wonder.

I had the same reaction as the OP to that commercial. I didn’t hear anything about how the chickens were fed, my brain just heard “Now with 100% real chicken!” and all I could thinks was “what the hell did it used to be??” :dubious:

Arby’s commercial track record is questionable lately anyway. Don’t forget the guy who see’s his wife in fishnets, beckoning him to ravish her, so he he immediately gets a craving for a fish sandwich. :rolleyes:

Microsoft’s latest adverts for Office make me think this as well - “Office has evolved”, showing a bunch of dinosaurs sitting around using old versions of Office and getting things wrong, a not-so-tacit admission that the old versions were rubbish.

So, why should we think that the new ones are any better? :dubious:

Only real chicken

I like the fishnets commercial- since I got the joke when I saw it the 2nd time (I think both times, the line “Are those fishnets?” had been clipped out- I know I hadn’t heard it till a later viewing.)

:rolleyes: here we go…

Wow, chickens in gravity boots! That must be some kind of fancy spa for chickens.

Nah, that’s not it. You have to follow the logical progression of the guy’s thoughts. Somehing like “Hey, my wife in sexy clothes! That means she’s in a sexy mood! That means sex! I love sex! The feel, the smell! Feels like heaven! Smells like…Ooooh, fish sammich!”

Yum, baby.
