Cow & Gate Growing-Up Milk advert

I've finally realised why this advert irritates me so much.

It's got nothing to do with the frankly irrelevant claim that a toddler would have to drink 20L of cows milk to get their recommended daily amount of iron - I assume 99% of toddlers are eating other food with a modicum of iron in it.

It's all about her voice. I can't ignore it, I just have to listen to that girly giggly "healthy toddlers are happy toddlers". Get out of my head!!!

Sorry. As you were.

Agreed. But for me, the breakfast cereal one where the baby eats it all up is the one that grates on me, her voice just really annoys me. I don't care about the advert, just the voice- grr! "because healthy baybuz are happy baybuz"

It makes me want to throw a rock at the TV. In fact, I hate all those C&G adverts because they make ridiculous claims - like the iron in cows' milk and the "Do I look as if I..." ones.

Grrrr.
