The video is entitled "Celebrate Togetherness."
The commercial comes shortly after Mattel bucked stereotypes by using a boy in a Barbie commercial for the first time. And in October, Campbell's released a commercial showing two gay dads feeding their son a bowl of Star Wars-inspired soup. Both tell him: "I am your father."

But on Facebook, one shopper commented: "I have shopped at your stores for about 10 years and I have enjoyed it. The inclusion of a same-sex couple in your ad suggests to me that you are for that lifestyle. I am not. I have never been a supporter of the gay lifestyle and will never be. I'm disappointed in your decision."
