If they support eating massive amounts of pork, not sure that I am a fan any longer. Eeeeeew.

I guess the only point with that is just to grab your attention... I think it may have back-fired though.. The pig seems to be what registers... not the Crest product. I use Colgate anyway.

I would rather see a really big tooth stuck in that alley, not a pig. Grabs my attention AND my confusion! But I guess the two buildings act as teeth... so why not put a big piece of lettuce. Something green.

They should have made the pig look better, cartoony or something. amusing idea for an ad though

Oh yeah, I'd rather see a cartoon pig. That pig is kind of.. hmm. Doesn't look very alive. :[

There's too many wrong things with this ad. I think we should all redo the ad for them. Haha.

That's true but it does catch your attention.
That crest fruity/flavor toothpaste stuff use to make my toothbrush taste funny after awhile and I haven't used crest since. Toothpaste should be minty anyway not fruity.

Are some of you guys vegetarians then? Or you just don't like the idea of sticking a BFP (Big Friendly Pig - BFG, wink, wink, nudge, nudge) between walls.

At least you know if you ever come across a giant pig stuck like that, all you'd have to do is floss him out. :-)

I am possibly the least vegetarian person there is (I don't believe in slaughtering innocent vegetables). The ad just wasn't carried out as good as it could have
