Since "Saturday Night Live" alum Pete Davidson joined forces with Taco Bell, fans of the food franchise were quick to criticize the partnership.
Critics were mostly vocal on Reddit, as users posted their distaste for the campaign.
One post titled, "Taco Bell Kindly Take Away The Pete Davidson Ad!" suggested removing the advertisement altogether.
TACO BELL PARTNERS WITH PETE DAVIDSON TO ISSUE NEW AD 'THE APOLOGY'
"I’m a super hardcore TB fan (which is why I’m here lol) but even then the Pete Davidson ad with him talking with his mouth full is absolutely repulsive and makes me want to not eat there," a Reddit user pointed out.
"I’m not sure what some women see in him but he is so gross to me personally…. Definitely not a selling point for any product. Anyone else feel the same?"
Davidson was previously in a high-profile relationship with Kim Kardashian. The pair split in early August after nine months of dating.
In the beginning of October, Taco Bell published "The Apology" commercial starring Davidson.
"Sometimes we go too far. I have and that’s why Taco Bell has hired me to make an apology for them," the comedian said while walking through one of the fast-food chain restaurants.
"Taco Bell went a bit crazy with its breakfast. It was too much," he continued. The commercial then highlighted a classic breakfast item the company serves, the Breakfast Crunchwrap.
TACO BELL HOSTING VOTE ON DISCONTINUED MENU ITEMS FOR LIMITED TIME RELEASE
Despite the franchise’s promotion of their breakfast menu, another Reddit user added that they "outright blocked" Taco Bell so they "wouldn’t see the ad" every time they opened the app.
