Quizno ‘Eat Me’ Billboard Causes complaints

The sub shop franchise Quizno has placed a billboard in Lafayette, Louisiana with the headline “EatMe” which has caused at least one person to make a complaint about its sexual overtones.

“I travel Kaliste Saloom (a road), and I am deeply offended by the Quizno Classic Sub sign that has a vulgar caption, in my opinion,” said Mrs. Robert LeBlanc of Lafayette. “If their sandwich is good, then why do they have to use sexual overtones to sell them?”

But Mrs. LeBlanc, what excactly is vulgar about that statement? All Quizno is saying is “eat our food.” Get your mind out of the gutter!

People who can’t rest until they’ve landed on an explanation for something uncertain score higher on what researchers call the need for cognitive closure, a documented cognitive style where the discomfort of not knowing gets resolved by settling on almost any answer rather than the right one.
