What's the most racist thing about this 1960's Jello Commercial?
The psuedo-Chinese text
The ching-chong “nallation” (narration)
The slanty-eyed mom & baby sitting in an “oriental” high chair (”Poor Chinese baby!”)
The ridiculous storyline which involves the baby’s inability to eat Jell-o with those oh-so-foreign chopsticky-thingys
The “fact” that a so-called Western invention (the spoon) saves the day (I think the spoon actually looks like a Chinese-style soup spoon at first)
The “chinky” sounding Jell-o jingle at the end
