[Nimrod2005]

Popular Filipino actress-model Alicia Mayer poses for a campaign advertisement for PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) clad only in fresh lettuce to promote vegetarianism, in Manila, Philippines.

1. and think its also got global warming benefits

since we could reduce cattle herds.

[unpossibles]

4. true, actually in several ways

not only fewer farting cows, but also fewer resources as far as the amount of food it takes to grow a cow as opposed to how much food you get out of it.

I personally don't have a problem with the idea of people eating meat, but I am glad more people are realizing that our current levels of consumption are bad for us, the livestock, and the planet. I also try not to get preachy about things: honestly I've gotten more grief from meat eaters than the other way around, which is why I almost never discuss it unless someone asks me about it.

2. um...okay. I don't completely get the lettuce bikini.

Is that supposed to encourage men to eat more lettuce?

[Warpy]

7. No, it's to sell more silicone

Those boobs don't fit her body, at all.

[Nimrod2005]

8. What do you mean? They look perfect to me!

[Quantess]

9. You're right. They look oddly large.

Those are at least a D cup. Probably DD.
It would have been cooler to get a flat chested woman with grapefruits under a lettuce bikini top. And the bikini bottom would be made of bean sprouts (for a shaggy effect).

15. Mine don't fit my body either

But they're real :P Some of us are just "blessed" like that (though my back considers it to be more of a curse).

19. Some are opposite, but you don't see women going out

for butt enlargement implants. They look real to me because they don't have that grapefruit look that a lot of Victoria's Secret's models.

[geardaddy]

17. Bingo.

That was my first impression.

[Auggie]

3. I'll never think of lettuce cups the same again

[Benhurst]

5. ...

[sakabatou]

6. I think that will do it

:D

[MonkeyFunk]

10. looks like

an e. coli outbreak waiting to happen.

[LeftyMom]

11. Gee, I've been veg for five years tomorrow and it didn't make those grow on me.

I should sue for false advertising. :P

[Quantess]

12. ROFL!

Haven't you heard about the miracle of lettuce wraps? :rofl:

[LeftyMom]

13. I've heard cabbage leaves in a bra help to relieve milk engorgement

Maybe she just had a baby and her milk came in. That'd explain the topheaviness.

[Porcupine]

18. So does "help" from a spouse or significant other......

dont' ask me how I know that. Of course sometimes people have to make sacrifices for relationships.

[LeftyMom]

20. No comment.

[Nimrod2005]

21. ??? How do you mean?

[Goblinmonger]

23. Sex Thread!!! n/t

[longship]

14. You ought to see the fruit cup!!

Just speculatin'
:evilgrin:

[Done]

16. Giving up meat is great...

but she should give up lettuce as well

:bounce:

[Goblinmonger]

22. I have this sudden craving

to eat some lettuce.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

24. I don't like the way it objectifies lettuce.

QUIT PLAYING WITH YOUR FOOD!

[Nimrod2005]

25. ROFL....

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

26. I Disagree. After Looking At The Pic I Want A Big Juicy Steak And My Wife To Come Home.

Doesn't make me want in any way, shape or form want to even think about becoming a vegetarian though.

[Nimrod2005]

27. Why do you want your wife to come home? to make you a salad?

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

28. No. To Cook The Steak.

:rofl:

[eppur_se_muova]

29. Odd ... it doesn't mention WHY she's popular.

Story seems incomplete without that.

:crazy:
