Every time they buy out another food brand, they proceed to destroy the product...Hellman's mayonnaise being only their most recent. They took a great recipe, replaced the ingredients with more water, and really just bought the brand name to destroy the product. This is beyond insulting to the consumer...as if they don't think people are going to notice the difference, or perhaps the consumer is incapable of reading the ingredients list. They did the same thing with Breyers products, and there is a consistent pattern of disregard for humanity in just about all of their corporate decision-making schemes...I applaud haredi on this callAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-3931936420960778962008-07-14T22:36:00.000+03:002008-07-14T22:36:00.000+03:00Can't live w/o Hellman's sorry.

Did they all have to review the "abomination" before giving their public statements? <BR/><BR/>Do they think this is the first time Unilever has run an untznius ad campaign for one of it's many products? Perhaps these rabbis are aware of their other ads and developed a tolerance policy that has been overstepped in this particular case.<BR/><BR/>They would have let the matter go if the model had smaller bazongas. Women can only appear scantily clad in Unilever ads if they are below a certain cup size.frumhousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02735783157413222489noreply@blogger.com
