Good thing we made reference to him being a real person who works at the company or else this might be a commercial featuring a racial stereotype. Luckily the taste of the product will serve to keep people away. Yesh.

What’s with the computer animation anyway? Were they going for: Fu Manchu + Karate Kid + The Office = Fail? Because that’s what they got.

This commercial takes all the meaningful things about another culture and mashes them together to make them look dumb.
Also, here you see the “weird foreigner” type serving the “normal, middle-class white person” some food.
