PETA Asking The Zac Brown Band To Spare The Chickens
The Zac Brown Band is getting a special request -- change the menu. TheBoot.com says it received an e-mail last week from the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals noting, quote, "If PETA has its way, the 'Chicken Fried' singers will be hosting an all-vegan edition of their celebrated 'eat and greets' for fans." The animal rights organization echoes the idea in a letter to the group, asking Brown and his band mates to, quote, "extend your love of freedom to animals by agreeing to partner with us on a veggie 'eat and greet' for your fans." The PETA rep explains, quote, "In your song 'Chicken Fried,' you praise the simple pleasures of life-a cool drink, a home filled with love, enjoying the sunshine-all pleasures that are denied to the millions of cows, pigs, chickens, and other animals raised for food on factory farms every year."
PETA's letter adds, quote, "It's easier than ever to enjoy delicious, cruelty-free meals." The organization also promises to send the Zac Brown Band "a basket of delicious, protein-rich faux meats" to share with family and friends. TheBoot.com has the full letter posted on its website. |
