PETA fail

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009

So unless you live under a rock, you’ve probably heard that those things with scales and gills that swim underwater are now known as sea kittens. PETA doesn’t want you to go fishing, so they decided to give fish a cuter name.

Their scheme fails.  It makes me want to go fishing because (a) it would be awesome to catch a cuddly sea kitten and (b) they taste delicious!

While I love animals, and would like the ones I eat (and intend to keep eating) to not have to suffer unnecessarily so they can fill my tummy with their meaty goodness, I HATE PETA. They have all these stupid ideas about how to get people to stop eating meat, from the sea kittens to likening chickens to Holocaust victims. And how much they actually help animals is questionable.

Eating fish will make you dumb! And so will smashing rocks on your head!!

Speaking of food that is bad for you…

Over at Cake Wrecks, they posted this artery-clogging creation. That is a glazed Krispy Kreme donut-bun. Just looking at it, I can feel my heart becoming sluggish.  It actually isn’t as bad for you as the Heath Shake, which is surprising. It reminds me of a Jim Gaffigan joke:

We’re never satisfied when it comes to food. ‘You know what’d be good on this burger? A ham sandwich. Instead of a bun, let’s use two donuts. That way we can have it for breakfast. Look out McGriddle – here comes the donut-ham-hamburger!’

Holy mother of god!

This is a Heath Shake from Baskin Robbins.  It is horrible for you. The Consumerist has dubbed it the “death shake”. It has 2,310 calories, 320% of your RDA of saturated fat, and 266 grams of sugar.  To put things into perspective, that is 0.58 pounds of sugar.
