There have been tons of reactions to Jessica's "Real Girls Eat Meat" t-shirt, a round of fierce comments from our own CGG readers. PETA reacted super strongly- they even posted The Top Five Reasons Why Only Stupid Girls Brag About Eating Meat. We understand she's Texan and that it comes with the territory, but PETA has some mightly convincing reasons that not eating meat is the way to go. Paul McCartney and Pam Anderson know what's up- they both campaign for PETA and are dedicated vegetarians. With the mighty Oprah going on a vegan fast, it seemed like an inopportune time for Jess to pull out the sassy tee.
And how's this for scary: not only does eating meat increase the risk of breast cancer and abuse animals, it's unhealthy (too much fat), contributes to global warming, AND can even be blamed for the world food shortage as it takes 16 pounds of grain to produce just one pound of meat. If more people went vege there would be a lot less starving mouths to feed around the world. Who knew that one simple act would have so many repercussions? We hope Jessica thinks ahead next time she tries to dress herself.

so i recently became a veggie again--because its good for me, good for those animals and good for the planet. and i'm a big ASPCA fan.
i think its really weird that people drink cow's milk, right?
yeah cow's milk is grossss. too many hormones.
I'm even over soy milk. that's so 1999.
I think it's fine for Jess to have her opinion but it's like really get with it. One day she goes to Africa and makes a big photo-op over helping kids. The next day she's all eating steak and taking food from their mouths. what a ho.
Dairy free rules!
Paul McCartny once said if slaughterhouses were made of glass we would all be vegetarians. Just because an animal cannot speak does not mean they do not feel.
