This stupid stereotypical depiction of Bavarians, killed, strangled, and snuffed out any hope of me trying a teeny tiny bit of Toaster Strudel.

But he's not supposed to be from Germany. According to General Mills, he's a "fun and quirky young boy from the magical place of Breakfurg, a place where people are happy and breakfast is served all day long."
Breakfurg, not Germany!!

What's so annoying about a kid who kicks in a door, looks like he just walked in off the set of "Hans Christian Andersen," has a sing-song voice that needs to lose an octave, uses an accent that's a cross between Eva Gabor and Jaden Smith, and talks like a horny ten-year-old? And I won't even get started on the un-special effects of the other kid being flown in by the advertised product.
The whole thing looks like it's out of a rejected episode of "The Twilight Zone." |

Okay, yeah, that actually makes it even more offensive. That's like having a kid selling burritos/tacos, making him/her do a child's best Sofia Vergara impression, and then saying he comes from Beanerland. |

I've got several questions : Who the f**k thought it was OK to approve such a retarded-ass commercial? What with the cultural stereotype? Is there a name to the awesome new narcotic that the ad exec who greenlighted this disaster, took beforehand?
A boring, yet honest commercial is better than an insulting and insane one!

They figure it's ok to portray Germans/Austrians in that way because most German/Austrian-Americans have become so de-cultured over time, and can't see how actually offensive the commercial is to anyone who is seeking to reconnect with his cultural roots (such as myself). |

It's funnier with the sound down. With the sound on it's extremely, extremely ANNOYING. I HATE YODELING.

I hate this commercial as well...that kid is annoying and the commercial makes NO sense!
Here's another German stereotype...they're Nazis! Now that would be an interesting toaster strudel commercial...have Hitler knock-down the door and say "Eat my toaster strudel, Heil Myself"! |

I saw an updated version of the commercial that changes the part at the ass end of the ad. It no longer has the creepy yodeling child standing at a 3/4 profile shoving a box of Toaster Strudels in your face.
Kid still scares me, but I suppose you could call this an improvement...

Or, he could say "And...they're Kosher!", with a wink, as he pops one into the toaster oven.

I always thought it was the Swiss who were the yodellers, not the Germans. |

I gotta learn the pronunciation of this. Mainly the first phrase. There's a heinously annoying kid in this one class, and both the teacher and I would get a chuckle out of abusing him in her language. |

Okay, this commercial is starting to drive me a bit crazy. I think these days adverts are going for anything that will grab our attention, be it whistling or yelling, or screaming, or stupid anything in it... I love the doughboy and have ever since I was a kid, but since they've gotten other things to do his commercials, they've went downhill. Put the cute doughboy back on instead of sh*t like this crap.

I really hate this ad...besides the fact that it is weird and makes zero sense the worst part is when the obnoxious yodeling brat says, "warm,flaky,gooey...toaster struuuuudel!" Everytime I see it I think one thing and one thing only, SHUT THE F*CK UP you little smarmy twit!

Austro-Bavarian. Every time I see this commercial, I expect Danny Kaye to walk in and start singing "The King's New Clothes." |
