Well if vegetarians do have better sex – superbowl watchers won’t be informed of this fact. The 30 second ad spot, sponsored by PETA, has been barred for being too risque. It’s not the first time PETA ads have been banned from TV, here’s a link to some others.
From NYpost: NBC pulled the plug on a PETA pro-veggie commercial planned for the Super Bowl because it “depicts a level of sexuality exceeding our standards,” according to NBC Universal’s advertising standards executive, Victoria Morgan.
The ad, which carries the tagline, “Studies Show Vegetarians Have Better Sex,” shows lingerie-clad stunners getting “intimate” with vegetables. One shot depicts an actress “rubbing [her] pelvic region with pumpkin.”
Says a PETA rep: “PETA’s veggie ads are locked out, while ads for fried chicken and burgers are allowed, even though these foods make Americans fat, sick and boring in bed.”
Here is the ad in question…what do you think? Too hot for TV?
