Not much different than the bananas with Disney characters on them. This has been a thing for a long time now. It just happens to be a Hulu ad and not Disney specific.

    There were Star Wars branded oranges in supermarkets back when the prequels The Force Awakens was coming out.

    Edit: Got my timeline wrong. Still, it's been a while.

    FYI, when using Markdown formatting here and on Reddit, you have to use two tildes:

    ~~the prequels~~ becomes the prequels.

    Literally in the middle of the Beverly hillbillies they would run ads for Winston cigarettes, and it was a LONG ad meant to look like part of the show.

    Nothing has changed at all. Tech allowed it to be even more in our face though.

    Best to destroy screens at gas stations, and make it a point to not use anything you see advertised in an idiotic way.
