"The citrus-smooth taste of Middle Earth"?? You're joking, right?<P>Sadly, I think I already know the answer to that question.<P>I guess advertising of this kind was really sort of inevitable. I mean, when you get a movie with as much widespread appeal as The Lord of the Rings, of course the advertisers are going to want to get in on it. I just can't help wondering what Tolkien would have said had he lived to see Aragorn on the side of a tub of fried chicken.
