Oatley
I love puppets. I love it when they do weird shit. I thoroughly enjoyed Team America’s sex scenes and I totally got off watching puppets go on an adventure in The Dark Crystal. So when puppets feature in a commercial, I can’t resist their fluffy charms and whimsical ways.
I don’t know Oatley. I don’t care either. From what I gather, they must be a vegan company looking to convert meat-eaters into their righteous philosophy. Taking the slow-burn approach, meat-eaters aren’t all that bad, they simply haven’t seen the light. Conversion is a hard path and the meat-loving community can take their time. Cows, after all, are replaceable. As are sheep. And it’s okay to crave milk and cheese because the alternative is killing the environment (looking at you almond milk suppliers).
My favorite scene in this reformation tale is when the meatball laughs maniacally and then squeals a low growl of death as a fork pierces its heart. That meatball had it coming. Evil little shit.
