The old woman may not be able to see the beef, but surely one could see the fallacies present in this add. One such fallacy present in this ad is the straw man fallacy. The straw man fallacy occurs when someone substitutes a a person's actual position with a distorted, exaggerated or misrepresented version. Within this commercial they pretend that some restaurants give out burgers and or sandwiches with nearly no beef and attack them while the burger in this ad is a distorted version of their competitors. I doubt there is a sandwich that looks like that and if so that is very sad...:(
