IEATAPETA Day the Fifth
Mar 13, 2007 Cool Links
In early 2003, Meryl Yourish spotted a PETA campaign calling the slaughter of animals for food a “holocaust on your plate.” He thought that it was rather disgusting to invoke the Holocaust in such a way, and he’s right. But he also recognzed PETA’s actions for what they are: an “outrageous publicity stunt.” Knowing he couldn’t make them cease their campaign, he decided to hold an outrageous publicity stunt of his own, that’s been growing every year since.
The Fifth Annual International Eat A Tasty Animal for PETA (IEATAPETA) Day takes place this Thursday, March 15. I’m having a garbage plate for lunch.
