Not to spoil the ending, but after preparing the whole bloody Thanksgiving dinner from slaughter to oven, Mama has a change of heart and opts for a Tofurkey instead.
“We’re having a bit of fun at Mama’s expense, but there’s nothing funny about the suffering endured by turkeys and other animals who are killed for food,” said PETA’s Joel Bartlett. “With all the delicious vegan alternatives available, there’s no need to make the carcass of a tormented bird the centerpiece of your Thanksgiving table.”
Agree or disagree with PETA’s message, you’ve got to admit that this is a well-executed campaign. Hell, the graphics and controls might even be better than the first Cooking Mama Wii. To check it out in all its gory glory, visit the game’s site.

Ridiculous game! Grow up, PETA.
I’ve been in food processing plants and one thing that should be noted is that improper or torturous treatment of animals is ALREADY ILLEGAL!
Think about it, you want safe food, right? Well companies have it in their best interest to offer safe food, otherwise they go out of business. If a company mishandles livestock, or chickens, or dairy cows or whatever, it can make people sick. I don’t know of any food processors who are in the business to spread disease.
man… peta, you always make me laugh.
amaizing! but dangerous and duffer
