Is this the Foot Fetish Cure the World's Waited For?

It has been called "the most revolting 103 seconds in the history of American television."

OK, as far as I know, no one has called it that, but it is really disgusting.

Pedegg Of course, I am talking about the TV commercial for PedEgg, the "revolutionary foot file" that claims to provide the world's "fastest way to make your feet feel smooth and healthy." In the the video ad, a satisfied user runs the PedEgg over her feet and then [SPOILER ALERT] dumps the skin shavings into a garbage basket. Yuck!

Kelly Parks-Corso and Jonathan Corso appear in the video, but claim in a lawsuit, first reported by The Smoking Gun,  that they were only paid a total of just $675 for their work, because representatives from PedEgg promised the ad was an "Internet-only infomercial."  The Corsos were also pissed that the ad looks "cheap" and "low quality."
