Just when I thought I couldn't hate PETA more...

[SuperFerret]

... they go and do this.

PETA ad draws criticism

I've known more than a few vegetarians that're quite overweight.

 

[Majik1387]

Hahaha.







I don't like PETA and I'm not vegetarian, but this is funny.

 

[katie_girl09]

In fact, a good 90% of all the vegetarians that I have ever met have been overweight/obese. Its a problem for them too!

In fact, a good 90% of all the vegetarians that I have ever met have been overweight/obese. It seems to me sometimes that obesity is a more serious problem for vegetarians than it is for people who eat meat.

That's because being a vegetarian healthily requires far more effort than just not eating meat, and therefore more effort than the average person wants to put forth. This, however, doesn't make vegetarianism less hypocritical.

Spot on.

 

[SuperFerret]

Of course it's spot on, I'm the goddamned SuperFerret.

 

[katie_girl09]

Your modesty is astounding, sir.

 

[SuperFerret]

I always brag about how humble I am. It's what makes me so damn awesome.

Too many obese people on this planet, I say we kill them all.

True...I guess vegens who are fat can probably chow down on all kinds of junk food because there isn't meat in a Hershey bar...well unless someone falls in the vats of hot melted chocolate.

get some professional help

 

[Ace of Knaves]

I need professional help because I don't like obese people who are obese simply because they are greedy and lazy?

I wasn't being literal when I said kill them.

 

[AndThePickles]

Use them for fuel and food in starving countries!

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Yes!!!

yes. How do you know all obese people are greedy and lazy? Sounds like you are judging them just because they are different.

 

[AndThePickles]

He didn't say all people who are obese are lazy and greedy, he said he dislikes the ones who are.

I think PETA is stupid in their generalization. I'm no vegetarian, don't think I'll ever be one, but I'm far from fat. And I loooove food! I'll only turn vegetarian if I get turned into a goat.

Also, I don't think you need to give up meat to be trim and healty. Just watch what you eat (healthy and well-balanced meals that includes meat, fruits, vegetables and lots of water), watch your portion, don't eat unless you're hungry and exercise.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

PETA in general doesn't think. They just jump into whatever latest shcmucky ad campaign they can generate without thinking of the ways it'll just make them look worse.

 

[AndThePickles]

I think that meat helps KEEP people trim and healthy. Lean meat = lean protein, which = contribution to muscle

I agree. Now let's go tell PETA what a dummy they are.

 

[knowsbleed]

I'd drink meat if I could. It's yummy.

Exactamundo!

Meat smoothies =

Or how about a Meat McFlurry? That would just be crAAzy.

Even still you can't tell who is lazy and greedy just by looking at them.

 

[Mister J]

The ad compares an overweight woman in a bathing suit to a whale -- implying overweight women are whales. The ad's text reads: Save the Whales. Lose the Blubber: Go Vegetarian.

Also, I don't think you need to give up meat to be trim and healty. Just watch what you eat (healthy and well-balanced meals that includes meat, fruits, vegetables and lots of water), watch your portion, don't eat unless you're hungry and exercise.

This has been another edition of Eating Right with Bella. We'll see you next time when we tackle the truth of about Twinkies.

 

[Casius--J]

Its a stupid thing to say because I too know many over weight vegetarians. Its what you eat, and if you're vegetarian diet consists of chips, donuts and sugary drinks then you're not doing yourself many favours there are you.

I cant see myself ever being a vegetarian but I'm far from fat and often dream about the meals i'm about to eat hahahahaha

Twinkies, Snickers, KitKat, chocolate cake and fried chickens galore!!! Hey, those things are right for me. Which is why I didn't mention those yum-yums in my post. It's not for everyone. For most, what I eat as part of my diet plan, will cause an instant heart failure.
