Pamela Anderson
and PETA ìSteak Outî
Heftiest Hometowns
Exchanging her trademark red Baywatch bathing suit for a lettuce–leaf
bikini, PETA supporter Pamela Anderson posed for our newest advertisement
urging people to try vegetarianism.
Turn Over a New Leaf — and Trim Your Trunk!
After Men’s Fitness named the chunkiest cities in the U.S. and the U.K.
and Statistics Canada weighed in on the heaviest Canadian cities, PETA
erected Pamela’s slim and sexy advertisement in Liverpool, ranked as
the U.K.ís fourth–fattest city. We also turned Pamela’s pro–veggies
pose into postcards and sent them to all the restaurant managers in
the tubbiest towns, urging them to give rotund residents a chance to
slim down by expanding their vegetarian selections.
The Veggie Belle of the Vienna Opera Ball
When Pamela Anderson was invited to the world–famous
Vienna Ball, she invited PETA’s Dan Mathews to be her date.
Some patrons were afraid to come, fea
ring
PETA might throw red paint or dead animals at them! In newspaper interviews,
Dan assured them, “We will win you over with our waltzing,”
and they did. The pair wore PETA’s “no fur” buttons,
presented organizers with a fabulous fake fur donated by designer
Marc Bouwer and went on national TV to promote veggies by unveiling
Pamela’s enticing lettuce bikini billboard in Vienna. And when
Pamela visited a local shopping mall to sign autographs, she made
sure thousands of fans got another vote for veggies by passing out
copies of the ad.
Want to Lose Weight? Chuck the Cheese and Beef
No need to skip meals, spend every free minute
at the gym or experiment with risky fad diets in order to lose weight.
The simple, permanent weight–loss solution is to go vegetarian.
Studies published in the Journal of Clinical Nutrition and the New England
Journal of Medicine have found that vegetarians are far less likely
to be overweight than meat–eaters. Even so–called “skinny meats”
like fish and poultry are sky–high in fat compared to vegetarian foods.
Fattest Cities’ Not–So–Fat Recipes
For Chicago’s pizza lovers, losing weight
is a breeze with PETA’s recipe for Vegan Pizza Supreme.
Our recipe for Philly Seitan “Cheese Steak” means great
eating for residents of the City of Brotherly Love. Find delicious vegan
recipes that will tempt your taste buds and whittle your waistline at
