PETA One-Ups Burger King, Releases Gore-Scented Body Spray
After last week’s flame-broiled blatant marketing ploy by Burger King, PETA has come up with their own: a meat-scented perfume that smells like rotting flesh. PETA clearly saw the success of Burger King’s campaign and wanted in on the action.

“Most cows killed for fast-food burgers are castrated and branded without any painkillers, fed a diet of hormones and antibiotics, and often transported to slaughter without food or water in all weather extremes,” reads the PETA press release. “At slaughterhouses, they are strung up by one hind leg before their throats are cut and their skin is pulled from their bodies–sometimes while they are still conscious.”
If the package doesn’t turn your stomach, the scent might do the trick. PETA suggests the spray as a holiday gift, but considering that Christmas is only a few days away, don’t expect to wake up to the smell of flesh under the tree.
The meat and dairy industries is responsible for more greenhouse gas emissions than the entire transportation industry worldwide. Let’s hope the aeresol spray can doesn’t contain CFL’s!

it is survival of the fittest… all you peta apologists tell me why around the world people eat pigs, chickens, goats, and cows but no one eats a goddamn tiger or elephant or dolphin? survival advantage, natural selection. you can raise for food those animals which are stupid enough to be domesticated for mass production.
So, Stevo, are you saying that since I am more fit than you because I have better eyesight and a bigger gun that I can kill you and eat you?
Cows being castrated is just an expression and there weren’t use any animal byproducts to produce this frangrance. It is only to boyocott BK’s, not a real matter of action.
Then, who is really the immature here? Now the ignorancy and stupidity is showing.
P.s.: Think before you say something, idiots.
