Video game ads on ice cream recipes site home page

    The home page of my site http://www.ice-cream-recipes.net/ is displaying ads like "free playstation 3", etc. The rest of the pages are displaying relevant ads. There are no video game related words that I can see anywhere in the source. Anyone know why this might be happening?

    Thanks, Matt

    That is weird and humorous at the same time.

    I checked your code and didn't see anything what-so-ever with Playstation words in it.

    The only think I can possibly think of and imagine is that maybe the links linking to your website are from a gaming website?

    So some adwords advertiser uses a keyword like ice cream for their ad about ps2's>
    Then what happens?
    Google sees ice cream on your site and serves up the advertisers ads.
    Happens quite a bit, as advertisers are now pushing the envelope for keywords and getting their ads shown on sites that are basically not relevant to their product.
