Lobster On The Couch: The USDA's New Commercial On Food Safety

The USDA wants us to be vigilant about keeping food safe. With one out of six Americans suffering from a food-borne illness this year, it's no wonder that they want to get the message out.

What do you think of the USDA's new advertisement?

Food safety, keep your food alive and healthy so it be at its vital best when you finally boil it, slaughter it, and or kill it, it will then be good and fresh?

Just like the Meth commercials, show the after effects of not paying attention in the kitchen.

Beyond dumb....and I won't be surprised when the PETA folks start balking, too!

What would we do without the Federal Government and all its bureaucrats telling us to do the obvious?

You would be surprised at how many people don't know these things. Never "over"estimate your neighbor.

Yep! I blame it on our public school system and teachers colleges.

So he cooked the lobster already and now it's time to refrigerate it for later. He's too lazy to get off the couch and put it in the fridge? I'm reminded of those jeans commercials where you have no idea what they are trying to sell you until a Levi's logo pops up at the end.
