My poor wife was watching the Food Network this afternoon when the worst advertising mistake in the history of television was made. The Food Network (of all channels) played the commercial for the Ped Egg. This is a product for people who want to take care of the callouses on their feet by scraping them off and smoothing the skin over. I am sure that it is a great product and I am sure that it really works (the concept is simple enough), but take a look at the commercial (see below) and tell me if you would like to see this in between segments of a cooking show. It's kinda like playing an ad for the Cheescake Factory in the middle of an exercise program. There is a definite contradiction here.
So you see why I had a problem with this? Don't you love the part where they show you how the compartment where the shredded dead foot skin can be emptied out after you use it?
