    That green giant ad has to be the most annoying thing on TV at the moment.

    One kids says "You are what you eat" and then the his mate says, in the most fucked up, annoying, retarded variation of the English accent "If you eat French fries you'll be French?". I don't usually mind the English accent but everytime this comes on I have to change the channel as fast as possible.

    Just thought I'd let everyone know.

    Freaks me out!

    Mum says you are what you eat, so if you eat French Fries you become French, if you eat Runner Beans you become a Runner" Mum puts the dinner on the table and the kids go "What's this?" Mum goes "Green Giant Sweetcorn" They proceed to lash the food out of it thinking they will become a Green Giant.... But why don't they think they will become sweet which makes more sense? I am sure they wouldn't look at Fish Fingers and go, oh we better not eat this we will become a Bird's Eye.

    He wouldn't be as badly bullied as that kid who wants to do a poo in Paul's house.
    IMO his childhood will probably be ruined because of it.
