Hamburger Helper is a red commie devil

I caught a view of the new Beyonce commercial the other day. She has partnered up with Hamburger Helper as part of the Feeding America by adding to local and national foodbanks. I say kudos to everyone involved.

everyone except the logo designers of the thing.

at first glance, i didnt see hands raised. all i saw were red and black flames with the hamburger helper man gleefully standing inside them. like the devil himself. like poker game in hell, where he cheats, raises nonstop, and then taunts everyone with a demand to “show your [..] hand”.

the grunge style was also an interesting choice. is it in an attempt to make them appear more acceptable to the unclean masses the food will be spread amongst?

will says this has something to do with communist china.. i did not question him and instead chose to accept his bizarre knowledge of the REDs.. when he first saw this he instantly stated “Feeding America, TO THE CHINESE!” in tribute to this awesomeness, here is a modified logo for use going forward

hamburger-helper2last note.. disembodied hands that smile and prompt you to eat lots of dead cow and pasta are very creepy..
i dont think you can spin this in any direction except creepy
