  1. I think this is national. Could be a regional one. I'm in Florida.

    Simply the funniest "foodie" commercial on TV I've seen in, gee, I dunno. Maybe Ever?

    Anyone know the one I'm talking about?

    You must mean the screeching 'singing' puppets telling you to bring in any kind of coupon to get $1
    off a sandwich?

    The one with the mutant hamster?

    That commercial, in and of itself, will keep me from ever to visiting Quizno's again. If I think
    about it, I get queasy.

    Amen. I will not eat at a restaurant using a rodent as, um, spokesroadkill. Sorry, but mutant
    rats are the last thing I want to think about when I'm dining out. Quizno's can count me out as
    a customer.

    Do you mean the commercial with the thing that can't be identified? It sort-of looks like a chicken
    nugget with mold on it? But, it sort-of looks like a gerbil that's been skinned and had some fake
    eyes attached to it? The one with the very strange, affected accent?

    It doesn't make me want to go to Quiznos at all. It's....disturbing.

  8. This is by far the most amateurish, horrible commercial I've ever seen! Stephanie

    I agree. I've seen very few commercials for food that have left me without an appetite.

    I can't help it, I saw the commercial just a while ago and I laughed out loud. Obviously I'm in the
    minority. Too easily amused, I supposed.

    I laugh my ass of every time i see those commercials. I've never heard of Quiznos before the
    commercial, and now I know the product name and know what they sell. So, from an commerial sense, I
    would say they are a win. Still, I like to cook too much to buy fast food. But, again, I have NEVER
    laughed that much at a commercial. I will remember Quiznos if I ever run across one of their stores.

  13. They'll now take a coupon for ANYTHING, even an oil change, for a buck off.

    i think they make a pretty good sub. but it's like discussing chili.

  15. No, not rats, gerbils, or roadkill, but the one singing is a mutant "tarsier" (usually found
    clinging to a branch, that's why its feet look like that, the branch he was probably on was removed
    from the image).

    Not sure what the other one playing the guitar is but I CAN tell you that although he CAN do that
    pretty well, he can NOT sing very well...so vocals went to the mutant tarsier.

    Okay, how do you come up with rats? I don't think they look like rats, even roadkill rats. I thought
    they were just weird made-up creatures with really annoying voices and stupid lyrics to the song.

    Actually they sort of look like bizarro Mr. Potato Heads to me. Kate

    You're not alone... What people don't understand is those "mutant rodents" are part of a popular
    skit that's been around the 'net for a number of years... Ever seen the Kitties playing Led Zeppelin
    covers?... same thing... I for one love it... yet would still rather eat one of those rodents than
    dine at Quiznos...
