We Love Animals,
They're Tasty
Hundreds of hungry, barbecue lovers killed two birds with one stone by supporting a fund-raiser for local high school drill teams and mocking a People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) anti-meat promotion.

High school drill teams near Pocatello, Idaho, hosted a barbecue across the street from a PETA billboard that showed an overweight child eating a hamburger and the words “feeding kids meat is child abuse.”  When the grilling was over, more than 1,000 burgers and nearly 500 hot dogs had been eaten and over $1,200 had been raised.

At the event, hundreds of people were given cow stickers that read, “I Love Meat.”  Dozens of drill team members paraded with signs that read “People Eating Tasty Animals” and “Honk if you eat meat, cry if you don’t.”

Several local meat markets and the Cattle Association donated meat, Wonderbread provided buns and the Coca-Cola Corp. helped provide drinks.
