Silly PETA peoples

Remember my recent post about Six Flags offering line-jumping privileges to people who could eat a live roach? Well, if you don't, read about it, it's a short entry and a short article.

Apparently - and I suppose predictably - PETA is raising a stink about it, calling the roach-eating contest "gratuitously cruel."

I applaud the reply of Six Flags Great America's spokesman, Jim Taylor, who pointed out that "the bugs are nutritious, high in protein and fat free."

Gratuitously cruel to whom? The roaches or the contestants? Hee.

What next, Be Kind to Vermin week?
