But what if you combined crackers AND soup?

What flubby’s Sunday funny missed in its NFL commercial breakdown was the preponderance of Chunky Soup ads readying to bombard our sets during the bullshit TV timeouts between a kick return and the start of an offensive series. Sure, it’s soup that eats like a meal, but only if that meal is served in a prison mess hall.

Unlike Kirk Van Houten’s cracker company, Campbell Soup has seen fit to abandon the family market and target middle-aged single guys. So they ditched Momma McNabb and (I guess) Casey Hampton’s mom in favor of LaDainian Tomlinson’s helmet cam. Because nothing makes me hungry for soup like intercutting shots up a running back’s nose with flashes of Norv Turner.

You Been Blinded provides footage of LDT’s Blair Witch-esque making-of video.

LaKneeInjury, ever the student of history, is mindful but unconcerned with the Chunky Soup Curse. You as fantasy owners should not be so foolhardy.
