So, there is a new S&W commercial with the tagline "If steak were a religion, this would be it's cathedral". The ad shows lots of business types having a great time eating steak and seafood towers.

One shot in the commercial shows a butcher grabbing a strip loin off of a rack filled with meat. The meat is all rosy red and looks delicious. The issue is that S&W dry ages their meat, and anyone who has seen dry aged meat knows that it is hardly red and succulent in appearance.

Yeah, I know that commercials are supposed to make the product look it's best, but this just seems a bit disingenuous...
