I believe this article has merit in humor while remaining informative.

I think this entry needs some work in balancing the humor with the factual. Humor is all well and good, but outright lies about a company in the guise of humor is not so good. As an epidemiologist (and thus relatively familiar with the process products like these go through), I found the entry to be full more of misrepresentations than of facts. Guide entries that review products really need to strive for a balance - meaning that they make an obvious effort to truthfully explain the good and the bad.

I can tell that you seem to be having a lot of fun writing these entries, and that's great! But I think it would be worth your time to sit down before you submit an entry to Peer Review and a) make sure it's in line with the Writer's Guidelines (http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/Writing-Guidelines), and b) proofread the entry.

Hope this helps some!

This entry is still hidden, and four weeks have passed without the author following the remark "However, the author can easily re-write it..."

There is nothing to review.

Any Scout seconding a move to the Sin Bin?
