Honey Maid Commercial
Honey Maid released its latest ad that focuses on the “wholesome” American family. The graham cracker company features multiple families including a family with a gay couple and interracial couple. Honey Maid emphasizes that it serves everyone, no matter their race or sexual orientation. Hopefully other companies can catch on and use their advertisements toward meaningful messages that society needs to hear. The advertisement drew up a lot of negative comments but what Honey Maid did with those comments was even better. Days after their initial release of the commercial on YouTube, they released another video titled: “Honey Maid: Love.” Check it out!
