TV Ad for "Food Porn" Hamburger Features Fisting

A Slate columnist reports that a couple of American burger chains have produced somewhat sexualized TV ads for their product, attempting to target 18- to 34-year-old males. The image above is taken from an ad that Slate describes as follows:

A woman walks alone onto a featureless stage, wearing high heels and a dress … and proceeds to fist herself.

Actually, she shoves her fist into her mouth, indicating that she is capable of consuming "the largest double burger in the country". Here's the clip.

Another pair of ads in the same campaign demonstrate that, perhaps surprisingly, girls are much better than boys at stuffing their mouths with straw.

The product itself (press release) sounds delicious:

"Fist Girl" is for the Monster Thickburger, launched this past November. The Monster consists of two one-third-pound patties, three slices of American cheese, four strips of bacon, a slathering of mayonnaise, and a pair of buttered buns. That's 1,420 calories and 107 grams of fat.
[...]
The plain old Thickburger (the Monster Thickburger's smaller predecessor) was termed "food porn" by the Center for Science in the Public Interest.

Says the Center:

But if the old Thickburger was Food Porn, the new Monster Thickburger is the fast-food equivalent of a snuff film.

Yum. I'd sure like to try one of these.

Footnote: The headline of this entry is of course slightly misleading, as the term "fisting" is usually limited to... (Take it, Wikipedia):

human sexual behaviour that involves inserting the entire hand, and sometimes part of the arm, into the vagina (vaginal fisting) or anus (handballing or anal fisting) of a sexual partner. Fisting is also called fist fucking, sometimes shortened to "FF." The medical terms for these practices are brachiovaginal eroticism (vaginal) and brachioproctic eroticism (anal) respectively.

But don't do it the wrong way!

Despite its name, fisting does not involve forcing the clenched fist into the vagina or anus. Instead, all five fingers are kept straight and held as close together as possible (forming a beak-like shape), then the hand is slowly inserted into a well-lubricated vagina or anus. Once insertion is complete, the fingers either clench into a fist or remain straight.
