Uber Eats removed a segment from its Super Bowl ad featuring Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Victoria and David Beckham and more after backlash for making light of a peanut allergy.
The ad’s tagline, “Whatever you forget, just remember Uber Eats gets almost anything,” promotes making space in one’s brain to remember that Uber Eats delivers more than just food.
In response to a man with a peanut allergy forgetting that peanuts are the main ingredient of peanut butter, Food Allergy Research & Education released a statement alongside other critics who felt the advertisement was insensitive towards those with food allergies.
