Feeding children meat is child abuse

The only people I believe genuinely benefit from diet coke over normal coke is diabetics.
There is some debate over that, with some sweeteners triggering insulin response in some laboratory tests.
From my personal experience, stick with drinks that you know the ingredients of, and do not need a chemistry degree to figure out.
Water, natural fruit juices and natural teas.

Today I Learnt PETA is pronounced as in Peter, not as in pet-AH.

Is not PEAT-er the same phonetically as PETER.
This reminds me of a story I read quite a few years ago, about a vegan couple who refused to feed their baby anything but shadows. The baby died from malnutrition, and the couple got off scott-free from charges of neglect.
I'd like to take this moment to stick my middle finger up at those who deliberately harm their children by forcing their own unhealthy personal eating habits upon them. Yes, that is directed at pill-popping vegans, not omnivores.

Actually you're not really designed to eat every day, more like ever other+ like most animals.
We're actually suffering because we eat so often/regularly now have a read on the thrifty gene
I can't argue with that, not as bad as Vegans though.
You're just less committed freaks
and Americans, because in America normal coke is made with high fructose corn syrup instead of sugar because of Americas protectionist fines/subsidies on sugar compared to domestic corn, and so tastes weird/worse than the diet or our normal stuff

Dunno why people are getting their knickers in a twist.
Its a poster designed to do exactly what its doing, provoke a reaction.
Even the PETA spokesperson suggested it wasnt about not eating meat at all, but about eating too much meat, which certainly can and does have an effect on young children. Too many fat morons in council estates feed their children poor quality meat, like chicken nuggets, and turkey twizzlers etc etc, and to be honest, a vegetarian diet compared to that is far far healthier! So in that respect, they actually have a point. In comparison to some organic Angus steak or something, no, that wouldnt be an argument!!
Im sure people had the same reaction they started putting FAGS KILL and pictures of dead things on fag packets.
Still, any publicity is good publicity, but I have to LOL at all the people missing the point and flipping out thinking PETA are trying to wipe meat off the face of the Earth!!
