Had an idea...which actually, I stole from Harley, but I thought would be fun!
Please post any 'amusing to only raw vegans' ads you see out and about in your world! :D
Such as this one: :rolleyes: ...I'm sure we all look at these differently now :cool:

Hmmnn....I'm sensing sarcasm! LOL! I get it :cool:
The whole thing being that cream isn't 'delicious'! Mind you, at least they're not saying 'healthy'!
Don't have any pics though...I'll have to get back to you on that one!

The page on which I found this advertises these as:
Kosher, Low Calorie, Low Carb, Low Fat and Sugar Free...
HOW COULD WE POSSIBLY GO WRONG??

I totally get where you are going with this.
I have a photo somewhere on my computer that I took at an event in an arena.
One of the "foods" they were offering for sale was some kind of roasted, candied nuts, doubtless full of HFCS and MSG. They were truly sickening smelling, so fake and overly sweet.
There was a sign over the display that read, "WARNING: This product may be habit forming!"
My daughter was like, they act like it's a joke but it should be a real warning. True that!
We also have pictures of "Tubby" brand cotton candy and "Chubby" fluorescent-colored soda. Amazing that they tell you right on the package what the stuff will do to you. :D
Now if we could just see "Diabetes" brand soda and "Colon Cancer" brand beef!
They really should come with a Surgeon General's warning!

oh my god, that second ad with the pig cutting through itself...i..i...i...just can't believe my eyes. i think i need to erase that from my memory somehow.
"on mange avec plaisir et...sans fatigue." - what because the pig cut himself up for you? that was like an image from some movie like clockwork orange or requiem for a dream. okay not as bad cause it's a still image, but can you imagine if that was animated???? that's why it freaked me out the most, cause i automatically imagined it moving. gahhh! poor pig.
