Meat Loaf Will Do Anything For Cash, And He Will Do This (Get It?)

OK. I had been wondering for weeks why A1 had changed its slogan to "A-1 Steak Sauce: TIME TO TRIP BALLZ." New direction. That bottle of sauce is TOO BIG. Check this out! Hahaha! Whoa!

They have another slogan, which is "A-1 Steak Sauce: Meatloaf's life seems kind of depressing." Dinner for one, please. No pants, bathrobe, some slippers: YES SERVICE. (Sorry. For everything.)

Also, why is Meat Loaf everyone's favorite spokesperson? He could not even sell me on his own music. ZING Hurts!

Meatloaf will always be Bob to me.

And also an important component of the phrase, "Don't let your Meatloaf — use it!" Ew.

Well even Meatloaf has to put food on his family . . . and then cover it in a thick layer of steak sauce.

I can't really explain how much 1) I love this, and 2) I wanted him to sing, "I would do anything for SAUCE." I actually started laughing out loud before he finished that line because that's what I had hoped/expected it to be.

Now you guys know what it's like in my head.

Thanks for bastardizing the greatest song ever made, A1. I guess you will do that, Mr. Loaf.

I'm shocked that singforyourbeef.com was still available in 2009.

I've always thought Meatloaf was a Cash 4 Gold kind of guy.

10 seconds of the 47 are Meatloaf laughing to himself.
That does not a sane commercial make.

He is a grown man that refers to himself as "Meatloaf" and lives in an house with a sign out front calling it "Meatloaf Manor" and apparently he sits by the pool eating meatloaf all day. Did you honestly think he would have any self respect?
