Johnny Rotten Butter

I’m not a big fan of celebrities hawking products and services to Baby Boomers.  I’m not a big fan of using celebrities in any ads.

Or maybe I’m a sucker for English celebrities. Or I remember how wondrous the butter was sloshed atop crumpets every morning.

Or the Rotten spot is amusing, well-done, and sells you butter.
