Cheerios commercial(Canada)

[Tripper11]

I highly doubt this would do well in the US, sorry folks, here yes, the rest, hmmm, not so much.

Beautiful story and yes, it is a bit of a Cherrios commercial.


Over the past few years, General Mills has positioned itself as something like the anti-Chick-fil-A, celebrating LGBT pride and vehemently opposing Minnesota’s proposed gay marriage ban. All of that is very nice—but come on, this is 2014. If you’re a food company and you haven’t made an adorable ad featuring a gay couple with their children, you’re just another face in the pro-gay corporate crowd.

Luckily, General Mills has now decided to get with the program, releasing a commercial with a gay couple, their adopted daughter, and a bowl of Cheerios. And the ad is just as impossibly cute as you might expect.

8. "I highly doubt this would do well in the US"

Judging from how Honey Maid did with its commercial, it wouldn't be an issue.

each other - looks like a family to me.

18. p.s. I have loved Cheerios since I learned to read in 195X.

The box was on the breakfast table and I figured out the word. They taste good too.
