"Uber Eats Faces Backlash for Super Bowl Ad's Peanut Allergy Joke"

Advocates criticized Uber Eats' Super Bowl ad for making light of peanut allergies, prompting the company to remove the reference after backlash. The ad, featuring various celebrities forgetting things, included a scene with a man experiencing an allergic reaction to peanuts, which was condemned for misrepresenting the seriousness of food allergies. With an estimated 30 million Americans having food allergies, the ad's portrayal was deemed insensitive, especially in light of recent allergy-related deaths.
