Worst Commercial?

This is one of the worst commercials I have ever seen. First off, people already dislike commercials. Wishing the  commercial would end should be one of the things that advertisers strive to AVOID. Could anyone sit through this without being at least mildly disgusted? Personally, I don’t eat clam chowder. I do eat soup, though. So, let’s say this ad is for soup. It succeeds in making me nauseous to think of eating soup, so I can only take the leap and think that this ad makes clam chowder fans sick as well. I think that, along with nails on the chalkboard, bathroom noises and that familiar screech of tires that comes before you get hit by a truck, hearing people slurping soup/chowder is one of the least attractive sounds on earth. I will say this, the ad makes me remember Legal Sea foods. However, it makes me remember to never go into their restaurants again. Ever. Colossal misfire. Did anyone see this ad AFTER the Superbowl (where it debuted). Me either. Probably because it was terrible and was consequently pulled after a single airing.
