Only in the United States, home of the free would this cause such a stir. I have noticed more interracial and gay commercials in Calif than in Texas. I even saw a gay commercial on MSNBC here in Texas, although it wasn't totally clear that they were a couple.

Some people need to get a new hobby, that commercial is cute and still promoting the product and the health benefits of cheerios. I personally don't think you can eat enough of the stuff to make a huge difference in your heart health but who knows.

Seriously?

You must not be familiar with youtube commenters.

If it were a commercial for Oreos instead of Cheerios people would lose their minds.

It's the same bigoted talking points you hear constantly on CDF from the white supremacists.

A condom commercial featuring a black man and white woman would be the best. Instant heart attacks for the racists.
