Just sneak up on those defenseless plant in our yards and garden, amputate their leaves and roots without any anesthetic or apparent care about any stress we may cause. Ignore the profuse bleeding of fluids from the wounds created when we rip or cutoff a leaf or stalk.

Consume fruits such as tomatoes, peppers, apples, oranges, corn, beans, peas, walnuts, peanuts, pecans, etc in ravenous quantities. Relish and enjoy the barbaric consumption of those plants’ reproductive tissues.

Not to mention your first comment attacked someone who joked on the fact that your veggies you love so much are fertilized with the feces from the meat we love so much.

“Attacked”?

You sound pretty defensive. Someone made a joke; I retaliated with a similar joke. Thought we were all friends here…

I can’t help but giggle. My mom used to call poop “bm’s”, short for bowel movement.

Fallon on January 31, 2013 at 11:42 AM

bmmg are my initials. I’ve gotten “bowel movement” before, though.

See, this is where I could do a rip on your screen name; ‘cept that, if I did, it would probably be called “rude.” Just like the meat thing. You poked fun at vegetarians; I poked fun at meat-eaters, but when I did it it was called an “attack.”

Just relax.

Hey, veggies — my food poops on your food.

The Rogue Tomato on January 30, 2013 at 2:19 PM

You meaties certainly are defensive.

bmmg39 on January 30, 2013 at 9:34 PM

I can’t help but giggle. My mom used to call poop “bm’s”, short for bowel movement. Sorry, was that too aggressive or defensive?

Wait. “Meaties?”

“I’m a level 5 vegan, I don’t eat anything that casts a shadow.”

It was said that vegetarians try to design & cook their meals to look like meat, but meat eaters never do the opposite – like you’ll never hear someone say, “I’ll have a steak, but please make it look like a huge stem of broccoli.”

Do they have some sort of mental disorder like liberals?

BruthaMan on January 31, 2013 at 1:23 AM

Unfortunately, a huge number of them are liberals. Not all of them, mind you. But, the ones who get in arguments with you about how awful it is that you eat meat, and how you’re gonna die because of all the toxins, and how much better they are than you – they are ALL liberals.

Oh, and Spiffy, don’t confuse vegetarians with vegans. (Pronounced vay-guns, not vee-guns, because these people are from another planet.) I’ve met lots of nice, fine vegetarians. I’ve met exactly one non-sanctimonious vegan. (He was still an alien, though.)

since I’m not … sanctimonious?

bmmg39 on January 30, 2013 at 10:41 PM

Ummmm. I think some of your comments have definitely on the lighter side of sanctimonious.

Sanctimonious:
Making a show of sanctity; affecting saintliness

at least they weren’t d-bags about it

bmmg39 on January 30, 2013 at 9:47 PM

Yep, I think that qualifies.

bmmg39 on January 30, 2013 at 9:47 PM

I’m thinking the defensiveness is not on his* part……

Its like being offended that the Cigar Bar you walked into is allowing people to SMOKE around you.

You meaties certainly are defensive.

bmmg39 on January 30, 2013 at 9:34 PM

And vegetarians certainly are never smug!

As a proud eater of meat, I can and will enjoy telling you that nothing amuses me more than seeing a vegetarian try to argue that vegetarianism is somehow a moral ideology!

See, the KFC ad was for carnivores, but at least they weren’t d-bags about it. Learn something, Taco Bell.

bmmg39 on January 30, 2013 at 9:47 PM

Same company.
Can’t wait for Pizza Huts version.

That commercials been airing for at least a couple of weeks, i’ve seen it lots of times.

clearbluesky on January 30, 2013 at 6:33 PM

I’ve seen it a few times here in Texas. Glad someone else mentioned seeing it. Was concerned I may be experiencing deja-vu.

Had no idea vegetarians were so insecure and sensitive. Do they have some sort of mental disorder like liberals?

I meet a vegetarian every time I look into the mirror, big guy. And you just described the stereotype of the vegetarian, not an actual one. Every time I’ve seen any sort of argument between a meat-eater and a vegetarian, the meat-eater has initiated it.

bmmg39 on January 30, 2013 at 10:13 PM

When your biggest cheerleader is PeTA you should understand why some people feel the way they do towards vegans. Besides, stereotypes are stereotypes because the element of truth.

Not to mention your first comment attacked someone who joked on the fact that your veggies you love so much are fertilized with the feces from the meat we love so much.

So who is really being defensively here?

You’re saying yourselves that the ad is now getting more attention because of the (quite likely orchestrated “controversy”). So you guys are winning, right? Okay, cool. So why are you getting worked up about vegetarians?

bmmg39 on January 30, 2013 at 10:41 PM

.
Because Mayor “DUMBA$$” of NY, NY has started a trend of banning foods by “Mayoral Decree.”
We fully expect a mandated vegetarian diet to be next.

You can’t call what taco bell serves is meat. It is some kind of weird paste. But anyway, we can’t hurt the poor vegans self esteem can we.

Scary Fact of the Day: The food safety standards for Taco Bell are higher that those used by the FDA. Most school lunch systems only apply FDA standards.

bmmg39 on January 30, 2013 at 10:41 PM

Nobody’s winning or losing. Last I heard everyone can enjoy meat or abstain from it.
I can’t speak for my fellow commenters, but I don’t get worked up about vegetarians.

That explains it.

sharrukin on January 30, 2013 at 10:25 PM

Explains what, since I’m not obnoxious, unpleasant, or sanctimonious?

We’re chuckling at a funny fast food commercial.
What is defensive about that?

22044 on January 30, 2013 at 10:29 PM

And I’m amused by the number of comments here; that’s all.

How did the bad Taco Bell people offend you by being “d-bags”?

Have you ever met a vegetarian? They are the most obnoxious, unpleasant, sanctimonious people you will ever run into, and if they don’t have something to gripe about they will invent it.

America 180, where majority has to buckle under to the very, very, very small minority…for the worst.

Exit question via Forbes: How did the food nannies get wind of this ad if it hadn’t aired anywhere yet? Well played, Taco Bell. Very well played.

That commercials been airing for at least a couple of weeks, i’ve seen it lots of times.

For every person that watches this video (that isn’t going to air during the Superbowl), Taco Bell scores a free message, minus the cost of the commercial. They didn’t have to pay the $2.5M price tag for 30 seconds of SuperBowl ad time, and yet will most likely score the same distribution number. They’ll get their message out, and get credit for not showing it…at the same time.

As AP said…well played.

That can’t be the commercial they’re talking about. That one has already been on TV for a few weeks now.

tvor03 on January 30, 2013 at 2:26 PM

It’s been running all throughout the playoffs.

Hmm, lets sort out that word… “crudites”… Well “ites” as a suffix means pertaining or related to… and the base word is clearly “crud”.

So you’re bringing multiple pieces of food similar or related to crud.

Nope, doesn’t sound good. Not even if you pronounce it all Frenchy.

True, but making fun of vegetarians is fun and, to paraphrase Obozo, if it just “stops one person” from bringing celery to a SB party it was worth it.
