National Review: Why Does Kraft Hate Children?

Did you know that Miracle Whip is so divisive a condiment that it can break the bonds of true love? That's the silly premise of a contest the Kraft brand is running. The "Not for Every Relationship" video contest encourages couples to explain how the spread can hold a relationship or break it up. The winning couple gets $25,000 for a wedding -- or divorce. Here's the promo, featuring a fake priest and a fake smarmy divorce attorney. I'm sorry. Did I say silly contest? Beverly Willett has taken to National Review Online to call for a protest. Miracle Whip Brand Director Sara Braun tried to explain to her that the contest is all in good fun, but Willett is having none of that . As is to be expected from the vice chair of the Coalition for Divorce Reform. Will Red State America rally behind the protest? Not likely, judging by the comments on NRO. Some side with Willett, but many others are bashing her for an overreaction to, well, a silly ad contest. Maybe those attacking her are libertarians or left-wing lurkers -- or maybe just those out there who for whatever reason had to go through a divorce and found that having a no-fault option made an emotionally scarring and potentially financially draining endeavor that much more tolerable (yes, I'm totally projecting). Or maybe all of those people, along with Kraft and Miracle Whip, just hate children. Maybe there is a conspiracy. After all, one commenter, calling himself Stu Braun, writes:
