PETA is bringing The Funk, The Noise, and The Sex

With Super Bowl 43 now in the books and today in full post-mortem analysis (ad nauseum) mode - the commericials sucked, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street band were okay and the game was good, but not the best of all time (and isn't close) - let's focus our attention on what would have hands down taken the moniker for 'Best Super Bowl Commerical', only if NBC had the stones to approve and play it.

From that cutting-edge organization known as PETA we have a PSA regarding the benefits of not eating meat and engaging in a diet consisting mostly of vegetables.



Pick a scene, any scene at any time and NBC found a reason to reject the ad. Let's see, the reason's were:

licking pumpkin

touching her breast with her hand while eating broccoli

pumpkin from behind between legs

rubbing pelvic region with pumpkin

screwing herself with broccoli (fuzzy)

asparagus on her lap appearing as if it is ready to be inserted into vagina

licking eggplant

rubbing asparagus on breast

That's all? Was it really so bad? All deemed inappropriate by NBC. Was any of the content in the commerical any more offensive than anything NBC would show in 'Lipstick Jungle'?

I have to say that I'm more freaked out by the lady on 'Medium' talking to dead people in her sleep than seeing women rubbing assorted vegetables all over themselves.

With the success of the 'Got Milk' print ads, I wonder if the people at NBC would have approved of this ad that promotes the benefits of Milk and ran in it in place of the Vegetable ad.
