Heinz releases a commercial. In the commercial, a stereotypical family is starting a stereotypical day. The mother is preparing lunches for the family, getting it right for each of the children. The father comes in, of course, in a rush, and takes his lunch. The wife calls out to get her kiss, just like in every 1950s sitcom ever.

The catch in this commercial is that "Mum" was actually a guy in a deli outfit, little paper hat included. And the father shares a kiss with the man. And retard parents got in an uproar over that.
