Title: Walkers/PepsiCo Promoting Cannabis Use
Post by: Sweenster on July 02, 2008, 23:36:44 PM

Whilst watching TV earlier I noticed a new advert for Walkers Baked crisps. The advert involves the UK being towed to the coast of Jamaica and then shows a rather relaxed looking cg version of Gary Linekar with the phrase "better for being baked"

This instantly made me think about Cannabis, with the terms being baked and Jamaica being chosen for the country.

Probably just my mind, but it seems others have noticed this too.

After a quick google I found:

and a youtube of the advert
