Since coming home, I've been doing much more TV-viewing in the 'classical' sense and within a few hours I had already seen this ad several times. So quickly, the proper steps to take in the midst of a pandemic have been commodified, and I cannot help but to wonder if such safety measures will continue to be central to food-based advertising once the virus has subsided. This is merely one way in which the televisual landscape shows signs of being forever changed by the current state of things.
