Bertolli Pulls Ads from Big Brother Show - Good Job Mama!

Jenn over at Good Job Mama! posted that Bertolli (the pasta company) has followed Lowe’s and pulled their ads from the Big Brother show on CBS.  A representative from Bertolli called, as in picked up the telephone and made a personal phone call, to Jenn to inform her of their decision to pull the ads.  Fantastic!!  I am going to go buy some Bertolli pasta to show my support!  I wish they made organic but I’ll make an exception in this case.  Jenn, YOU ROCK!

So I watched Big Brother on Tuesday night and had this horrible feeling of resentment everytime I saw Adam Jasinski.  Grrr.  Then I’d laugh because he’s sitting there absolutely clueless about the horrors that await him once he gets evicted.  Oh how I’d love to see his face.  Too bad it is likely that it won’t be discussed in his exit interview.

    Yes it will be interesting how he handles it when he comes out!

    Melissa, I almost didn’t answer the phone last night - was busy making dinner, stepped on a glass sliver, kids bickering - but I’m so glad I did. I’m still swooning with joy that they called me. Sorry Ragu & Prego, this girl’s a Bertolli girl now. ;)

    Yes, will be interesting to see what happens post-eviction.

    Have a great day!

    Okay…correct me if I am wrong but didnt the UAF say that Adam ‘used’ to work there, and then at first they said ‘never worked there’… how do you go from that to being ‘fired’?

    I’m beginning to wonder if they even know who this guy is and just got a raw deal when he made his comments..
