I've found these ads creepy and sick from Day 1. Months ago I sent an email to Tyson foods telling them what I thought. Surprise surprise! I never got a response!

I didn't know he was dead, but I like his products.

Don't find it any creepier or more distasteful than a commercial I saw a few yrs ago with Elvis singing "Viva, Viva VIAGRA!"

I said that to my husband just the other day. Didn't they do something like this with the Colonel for KFC?

After hearing one for the second time, I said to one of my sons who was with me that I thought it was a bit like hearing from the dead.
It weirded me out, as they say. Not an appealing commercial in the least!
ETA: I just read carrie ann's remark about what her husband said, and that is what my son replied to me. I do not remember the Colonel coming back to speak to us, but I guess it must have happened.

It doesn’t bother me. To me, it’s an honor to him and the company he founded.

Nothing says their marketing team couldn't come up with creative ideas more than these commercials.

@GoneButNotForgotten Do you by any chance watch Days of our Lives? Mr Horton has been deceased for YEARS and they are still playing his voice for the startup.
