PETA’s Commando Chicks March to Daytona Beach for Vegan Egg Sandwich Giveaway

With no end to the bird flu outbreak or skyrocketing egg prices in sight, the PETA Commando Chicks reported for duty to give away free vegan “egg” sandwiches made from healthy, delicious tofu—which is packed with protein and never caused a pandemic—along with Just Egg coupons, so locals can whip up their own delicious vegan egg dishes at home.

PETA President ‘Skinned Alive’ in Mumbai

Shoppers in Mumbai were met with a shocking sight, as PETA President Ingrid Newkirk was gruesomely “skinned alive” by a butcher as she protested with a sign that read, “Leather is someone’s skin.
