I mean the acting is really bad, but it's not like everyone suddenly has to be a good actor now that it's 2012

Wait, this is really a problem? The black woman is not being oppressed at all, and is the star of the commercial!

So basically you're saying that black people simply aren't allowed to advertise things because it could be perceived as racism? Would it be a big deal if the cook was some Australian guy in shorts or a viking?

That commercial is so racist against cans. Like, so good you would not believe it came from a can? Really? Cans worked long and hard to develop to the point where they could preserve food for far longer than it could be preserved otherwise!

So racist. Not everybody is fortunate enough to have a doorbell. I demand they redo this commercial with the people knocking on the door to be politically correct.

I know, it's like, Vikings do more than just pillage and loot, ya know? They have families. They fight dragons. Seriously. I saw it on a movie.

I guess the racist part of the commercial is that the black woman is doing all the work and the white woman is "taking all the glory" for it? I don't really see it.

The black woman is an example of the racist archetypical "mammy" character

I never would have guessed that woman had a black mother. What a plot twist.

What a politically forward commercial, having an interracial character in it's forefront!

Borderline, but I wouldn't really call it outright racist. Dumb perhaps.
