I think it was just sour grapes for the California Wine producers. Is the code refered to law or agreed upon standards by those producers? For some Government Agency to launch an investigation implying Disney is trying to market wine to kids.... come on.
Maybe it would have been fun to have a Mouse endorsed Rat wine... perhaps just available on site. I can see the appeal, I'd try it, and I promise I am over 21 by at least 25 years.
But I really wish people would just relax.
If your kids will want some wine because there is a cartoon on the bottle... then, how about you tell them ... no?
Are we going to have to find a new image to represent poison because the skull and cross bones is popular due to the pirate craze?
I am a parent who successfully raised my child... she doesn't smoke in spite of Joe Camel, doesn't eat Tony the Tiger cereal or think that the candy bar is as big as the wrapper. When she was too little to understand marketing, I would use old fashioned discipline and feed her what was good for her, not what came in great packaging.
Of course now that she is a college student, she nags me to eat organic....
and I am wishing I could find some of that Mouse endorsed Rat wine.
bravo!
