Because Beer Burning Would Mean the End of A Marriage

Cloudfront

Just like the long-running joke about wives lacking cooking skills and burning everything, this ad by beer brand Schlitz mocks exactly that. A husband comes home to his wife having burned his dinner, yet he’s not upset since she didn’t burn the beer. Aside from demeaning women, the company also promotes drinking beer on an empty stomach since dinner was effectively ruined. It would seem that the company is also promoting the fact that alcohol is more important than eating, which anyone that has ever done this knows that this is a true recipe for disaster.
