*Pfff ffff* Now that I've blown some dust off my copy of Ways of Seeing by John Berger, let's take a look at this hot mess.
A wholesome, blow-up-doll-esque woman looks at a submarine sandwich with a combination of awe and fear. We are told that the sandwich is seven inches long and that it will "blow your mind away." The dark shading to the right of the sandwich suggest that this "sandwich" is in fact attached to a body, which has been pornographically airbrushed out of sight. It is so big and powerful that it will choke the woman while at the same time giving her the very deepest pleasure, a la Deep Throat. This ad promises women a fulfillment that is sexual in its power. It mocks women and in so doing allows (young, idiotic) men to order it with chuckling glee. In that respect, and from an advertising perspective, it kind of works.
However, that does not make it any less annoying and whoever decided to call it "the seven incher" should be shot and peed upon.
"Do you like fast food a whole lot? You do, don't you? Admit it: You're obese, and don't get much sex. So how about something sexually suggestive instead? Check this out ..."
This ad makes me want to both eat the sandwich and get a blow job. If I take a picture of myself eating this sandwich while receiving a blow job, do you think they'd put it in the next ad?

That looks like a blow-up doll, by the way.
Like a trashy Craigslist ad, "7 inches, [but] thick."
Burger King, "Your way right away!" -- so put the knife away, as I prefer mine uncut.
