Here is a marketing idea I hope NEVER becomes a popular trend.
If there ever was a picture worth a thousand words, this could be it. I was mortified when I saw it, and for the record, I'm not a vegetarian.
The "Free Range Whole Human" was packaged in plastic wrap, in the posture of a Thanksgiving turkey.
The image is truly disgusting, and probably the reason why I'm sharing it.
Now for the worst part: you just know they could have made the picture even worse.
Check out these ads by PETA that were based on the same concept:
