Aldi gummy bear picture censored?

Has anybody noticed the Aldi gummy bear ads are pixelated?

My guess is it's viral advertising so I'm guilty of falling for it. 😉 Clever though.

    It’s a cute joke on “going natural”.

    Don’t get what’s viral about it and the thought it was done to avoid potential offence is laughable.

      The cross-eyed is right.
      It means Natural Ingredients, and uses that as a pun (since everyone's doing puns these days), as "going natural" aka going naked, hence the pixelation.

      It's not even that clever, or upsetting.
      The fact that people are so upset with something so semantic means those people should go to their safe-space, by that I mean their home, and stop diluting the IQ of our society to the Negative Integers.

      • I think you'll find that anybody with a modicum of brains understands that these days pixelation is a meta-joke.

    Its only because the bear hasnt yet received psychological counselling on what sex it wishes to be. Transgenders unite….

    It's a funny joke about the gummy bears being "au natural" a.k.a nude.

  • Wow

    its funny because usually bears wear pants

  • great advertising really. think about it. it's going viral people are talking about aldi.

    whoever came up with the idea from aldi needs a pat on the back

    • Aldi does some great advertising. The funniest is the toilet paper one and the bear in the woods.
