Steamed Veggies

"Vegetarians have better sex," reads the tagline for PETA's commercial that was recently rejected for air during the Super Bowl by NBC.

Here's what the Washington Post has to say. Lisa de Moraes makes it seem the whole thing was an overblown stunt to avoid paying the exorbitant Super Bowl TV ad spot fees (get your commercial banned, get a whole bunch of press about it, and people will youtube the shit out of it). First naked women on billboards, now sexy vegetables? PETA! Get ahold of yourself.

See for yourself. I, for one, think they could have gone way further with this one. The carrot scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, anyone?
