PETA is not known as a rational group. They’ve compared eating a burger to the Holocaust, thrown paint on people wearing leather(which just forces them to buy more leather), and have had Pamela Anderson as a spokeswoman. Well about a year ago they decided to attack a well-known seafood establishment in Baltimore, Maryland. Jimmy’s Famous Seafood didn’t take it lying down. PETA made national headlines in 2018 with giant crab billboards reading “I’m ME, Not MEAT. See the individual. Go vegan,” but the nearby activism wasn’t appreciated by Jimmy’s Famous Seafood. The restaurant responded with “SteaMEd crabs. Here to stay. Get famous” billboards of its own. Now they are celebrating with a beer called “Peta Tears.”
“To celebrate the one year anniversary of this historic moment, we’ve crafted a refreshing new locally brewed lager — PETA Tears. This golden masterpiece (4.9% ABV) is a limited-time release, and is perfectly paired with steamed crabs — and all other seafood! Turns out that their tears are in fact quite delicious!”
I know Jimmy’s is a seafood restaurant, but I’d be willing to say that goes well with any other type of meat….at least I’d be willing to try and see if it does!
