    Priceless. I love it when savvy marketing can be used as a cudgel on PC reactionaries.
    OMG it gets better!

    If I tell you, "You're wrong," you'll need to click this.

    Does anybody else find it odd, by the way, that the information age has led to language becoming an oblique and imprecise tool where even the most straightforward phrasing is pored over with chicken entrails and bone tossing to divine the true meaning?

    Bundaberg rum was invented as an ingenious solution to our horrible molasses surplus. What?
    Oh, and I want to join a band of Sugar Mallows. Whatever that is, google shows mixed results.

    I thought they said "sugar millers", 'cause that makes a little more sense.

    "Sugar Mallows" sounds like a name for either a candy bar or a porn star.

    In the words of the ad, "plain poppycock"!!!

    They may have filmed all three at once, Bundaberg likes to poke fun at people in their ads, but it appears that PETA getting their knickers in a twist is true. At least according to the Limeys:

    To err is human, to forgive is not SAC policy.
