The makers of Honey Maid graham crackers have come up with a unique response to anti-gay backlash by some against its commercial featuring two gay dads and their family. They printed out the negative comments and turned them into a piece of art that spells out Love.
On March 10, Mondelez International, which manufactures the popular crackers under the Nabisco brand, launched its This is Wholesome advertising campaign. The commercial features several different kinds of American families,including biracial and gay ones.
The commercial, which has more than 4.7 million hits on YouTube, starts off with the two dads huddled over their baby feeding a bottle. It then cuts to the two men walking. Following, that it features other families doing everyday things while enjoying Honey Maid crackers.
At the end of the 30-second spot, the two dads are again seen, this time in front of their house, posing with their baby and their other young son. A tagline accompanying the YouTube video reads, No matter how things change, what makes us wholesome never will.
Since the ad ran, the comments Mondelez has received have been overwhelmingly positive.
Honey Maid responds to anti-gay comments with new commercial
Beautiful commercial, one commenter wrote. A family is a family no matter what. Awesome job, Honey Maid. This is what the world is, people will just have to accept that and open their minds to it. It's a wonderful thing. Love is love.
However, the company did receive a fair share of negative comments.
Nothing like exploiting the gay community for some advertising and $, another person wrote. Keep your advertising where it belongs.

My guess is that this outrage was MANUFACTURED by the company. How?
First create the campaign. Then release it on a limited budget to save money. Then get 'bots' (either company employees or hire companies with fake twitter and Facebook accounts) to post 'negative' comments to create controversy.
This will send people to Honey Maid's Facebook page, or website, or You Tube video, and with out costing them a cent, they will have people come to them to view their ad.
Of course, the 'regular' people, i.e., dopes and dupes, will fall over themselves to show how much more 'tolerant' they are than you and me, and repost. Maybe someone, heck-definitely-someone leaks this to the media, and ...
For mere pennies, you get a multimillion dollar ad campaign.
I like it.
Sin is not love. It never can be.
And where did they get the kids?
If EVERYBODY became “gay” then what would be left? Sons and daughters of a turkey baster? I apologize of course, but sometimes things get so ridiculous.
The whole homo thing sickens me but I guess it is to be expected. End times, no doubt. At least in America.
I have tried to be as objective about it as possible.
Long before our modern breed of “gays” came prancing and flaming on the scene, Christendom dropped the ball on normal sexual purity. Divorce statistics bear this out, if I understand them correctly.
This made room for worse abuses which became obvious. Most swingers didn’t flame. These sad souls do.
Some might be saved. But Christendom needs to get back to its fundamental knitting. If there ever was a time for it to be a self righteousness club, that time is gone. The mask is off. Salvation by grace gift accepted by faith is all that makes sense to save a church that knows it is looking ugly and can’t save itself. What was obvious to Martin Luther is now obvious to everybody.
I believe the church failed concerning divorce and out-of-wedlock births. A little late to be championing the sanctity of marriage.
Please keep harming and killing yourselves.

Not to mention what they may be doing to those children.
...Nabisco makes some slightly different ones I also like...

Pretty sure Nabisco is part of Mondelez.
People are buying in, and Im sure some of it is due to fear, but there are no signs of a backlash.

You are so right, sad to say. I think a lot of the acceptance is a result of very clever marketing strategies. Look at all of the TV shows that have featured perverted characters. In addition, shows like “Good Morning, America” have been touting the homosexualist lifestyle for years.
Maybe people aren’t saying anything now...but we’ll see in a few months if sales actually will drop.
yeppers
The fagots should be forced to pay higher insurance premiums because of their lifestyle... Its only fair... right..?? If you have high blood pressure, you pay more... If you have sugar problems, you pay more... So why not the queers..!!
I wonder what the average life span of a queer is..??
no oops here - let them sell to the 2%
Nope.
They said Nabisco was a Mondelez product in the article I think or the video. Yes, they make some really wonderful crackers, always buy their regular soda crackers but haven’t bought snack ones for a long time.
FUHM
My point is, I didn't even have use the bible.
These dupes of this age do not have a clue that western civilization is based based on Judeo Christian values that those values have even formed what words actually mean.
We are fighting for truth, and control of the meaning of words.
It is really deep out there in satanic lies.
This spiritual battle is way more fierce than the unengaged is aware of.
how about SOME Americans are too stupid...
You’re painting with a pretty broad brush.
Not all of us are stupid, or perverted.
