Oh my god, and also, ew!

Bosses at animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals are sweating over a new idea to turn George Clooney's perspiration into a tofu flavor.


Proof once again that the good folk at PETA are (forgive me) OUT OF THEIR FREAKING MINDS.

Tell me their April Fool's got released a little early? Please? Oh, please?

As much as I advocate animal rights and humane treatment, I had to leave PETA behind when Ingrid Whackjob Newkirk declared that fat people were to blame for animal cruelty because... they eat too much.

I was pretty much, "okay, then, ASPCA it is for my donation check!"

So, no, this really wouldn't surprise me, although it sounds like an article from The Onion.

yeah -- many years ago I got into a discussion with a co-worker who was a rabid PETAn, trying to bring me into the fold. When I pointed out that she was wearing shoes made of leather, she started to splutter at me. At that point I went to a "sustainable non-cruelty that's not insane" philosophy and never looked back.

I can't wait for this to come to market! I'll be smearing it aaaalllll over my body.

Clooney-musk, here I come!

hey, if they were selling it as a perfume, I could see the allure. I bet he smells nice. As tofu-flavoring? Um...no.

(I admit it, I have a thing for guys who wear scent. I have a dominant sense of smell, yes).

They did have that to-do over Ben&Jerry's being made of breast milk instead of cows' milk.

I dislike tofu as it is. It might actually taste better in that flavor.

PETA and Outrageous

[(Anonymous)]

I can't say that I'm surprised. Well okay, mildly surprised as that seems even more outrageous than most other comments attributed to them. Although this sounds a lot like a publicity stunt.

*shaking head* I can't say I've taken PETA seriously since I heard their folks talk about guide dogs. Only recently one of their staffers was commenting on the TERRIBLE lives that guide dogs have. *snort* My guide is one of the most spoiled dogs I know, who gets more me-time, socialization, stimulation and just plain attention from people than most stay-at-home-alone-all-day pets.
Best,

Yes, they are.

However, you have to admit: there are plenty of people who would actually buy this product.

Hey! I'm a proud member of People for the Eating of Tasty Animals! What's the beef here . . . ?

[lagilman]

that's why I specified the good folk not the bad folk...
