Notice how Mean Joe's son doesn't have a sideways STEELERS hat or a hub cap on a chain. Notice he doesn't make juvenile stupid bouncing crooked finger hand jestures toward the table. Doesn't once say " Dis dinn-ah 's all up in heeya" or "Yo, throw me my nom's be-ah-ch." Notice this commercial doesn't even have lame "Dr Pepper " DJ's or dancing fat mice characters. Huh?..... I'll be glad when all this "K-zee,...Masta 'Lil roosta-boy,.... Ushanda,....'Lil Shameka, Tinya, shit fades away.
The announcer at the end, 'aljobaris', was veteran actor/announcer Ralph Bell, whose unique voice was heard in hundreds of radio and TV shows from the '40s through the '90s, as well as an equal amount of commercials (including Swanson's, during the '80s), until his death in 1998 [one of his final screen appearances was as a judge on "LAW & ORDER"].
Man I guess mean Joe was a marketing whore as well as a awesome football player! He also did the famous Coke super bowl commercial and probably much more. I can't say I blame him though, if I was offered millions by large corporations to pretend I love their products I would do it too!
That's what they probably had to do to make the meat taste less like cardboard; load it up with sodium to the point where the salisbury steak could double as a salt lick.
I love the voice of the guy at the end. It works well for voiceovers, but would sound completely strange if he were talking to you in the street. Watch the ad again and imagine it
I totally forgot all about this commercial, truly nice find and many thanks.

If you look closely, after the kid speaks and the announcer starts talking, you can make out the conversation between the two men:
Joe: "Who's he?"
Rocky: "That's the love child you just HAD to adopt!"
