Is it appropriate to sell "food" products using pop music-- with
inappropriate lyrics-- by just leaving the lyrics out?

Wasn't that ad out 4 or 5 years ago?

It's an old tune and an old ad. Everything about this deal is old.

I try to avoid commercials too. Unfortunately, I now want to have some
Wendy's chili and a baked potato. :-)

Seriously, I've never had Wendy's chili but I've heard that it's pretty
good.

I had a Wendy's chili years ago. It was OK. Had it been selling for $1,
it would have been excellent chili! I think the hot potato was $3. I've
never had it. If it was $1, no doubt I'd have eaten it. Looks like I'll
buy anything for a dollar. :-)

I got chili and baked potato, and salad for a number of years. Last time I
ordered two potatoes. Girl at window said, can't give you this one, too bad
looking. Took other one home. Boy was that bad, hate to see the other.
Their chili is much like mother made, ok by me.

Your mom made chili out of used burgers?! Just kidding. At least your
mom made chili. Mine never did. That's the breaks.
