A part of a public service announcement, this childhood obesity commercial 'Break The Habit' takes a dark spin on fast food by implying that hamburgers are a lot like heroin.
Set in a gray and depressing scene, a mother comes home with a paper bag only to reveal heroin tools and its deathly drug. In a twisted spin as she prepares to inject the heroin in what looks like herself, but it is actually prepared for her young son. The ad's message ends with, "You wouldn't inject your kids with junk, so why are you feeding it to them?" Check out the video. It's a junkie's must-see.
