Milk Worse Than Second Hand Smoke

The Truth campaign’s latest commercial informs the public tobacco companies, in 1996, said drinking a glass or two of whole milk is riskier than second hand smoke and does so in its usual fashion with Derrick Beckles…and his glasses… visiting a dairy farmer. The perplexed farmer simply can’t believe anyone could say such a thing about something so wholesome as milk. Though there are those out there who think drinking milk is disgusting, claim most milk contains harmful additives and the fat content (remember, we’re talking whole milk here) is bad for the body, equating that to the inhalation of second hand cigarette smoke is a bit of a stretch even for the Truth campaign.

Why doesn’t the Truth campaign just show a picture of this dude and be done with it.
