I will leave it to all your imaginations to visualize how similar ads utilizing other racial and ethnic stereotypes might possibly be constructed.

Plus the ad is stupid. "Is that Mediterranean oregano I smell?" Really?

Also no self-respecting Italian American, sitting on a stoop in the Bronx, would be caught dead eating an Italian hero from a generic chain when there are so many authentic Italian delis around.



I am enjoying imagining the outrage over some of the similar ads I could create.
