Meh...I didn't know if I ate a carrot I could be supermodel. Dammit. Too late.
I just think that given their moral high ground stance, they could do with a bit more realism in their adverts.
Vegetarians come in all shpaes and sizes, but they don't acknowledge that - going for the high end fashion look.

Until I moved back here I was pretty much a vegetarian. Mostly from a cost POV, with a side order of health. But cooking with/ for my parents (Mum hates most pulses, Dad is old fashioned) I am having meat about 4 times a week. I have no issue with vegetarians, I just hate that there is one more false suggestion out there for young people... If I buy this I'll be sexy, if I do that I'll be cool, if I grease up some asparagus I'll be desirable.

Charity begins at home. Loving animals starts with humans. YMMV.
