I Am Not a Muggle! July 9, 2009

Posted by Marta at July 9, 2009 9:47 AM | Permalink | Comments ( 22 ) | TrackBack

I don't know about you guys, but I'm stoked for the new Harry Potter movie! The movies are getting darker and darker, and I gotta say that I don't think Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will disappoint.

Not surprisingly, the "I Am Not a Nugget" chick always wants to be all up in everything (seriously, it's difficult to get work done sometimes), so we created a banner to make sure everyone knows that chickens aren't nuggets, but they aren't muggles either!



Copy and paste:

And of course, we all know that chicks dig wizards! Who doesn't, honestly?



Copy and paste:

Add one of these bad boys to your MySpace (or even default one on Facebook!) and send a link to StreetTeam@peta2.com and we'll give you 500 points. You'll definitely make fellow Harry Potter fans smile.

Who's going to see Harry Potter on the 15th? I can't WAIT!

Nugget's New Video! January 26, 2009

Posted by Ashleigh at January 26, 2009 12:58 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 8 ) | TrackBack

Welcome to the third installment of our soon to be infamous "This is peta2" video series! Not sure if you can tell (because of my first class acting skills) but this video marked my first time on camera for peta2. (Unfortunately Milk Gone Wild, Part 2: At The Carwash was before my time.)

Without further ado, the best video ever:


Comment and let me know what you think of my peta2 acting debut! (And be gentle, I wasn't a theater major!)

All You Want for Christmas December 2, 2008

Posted by Lara Sanders at December 2, 2008 11:50 AM | Permalink | Comments ( 7 ) | TrackBack

All you want for Christmas is peta2 merch! All of the cool items I'm about to mention are super affordable and, definitely, make a statement.

First off, check out our brand new peta2 pencils. Featuring six of our most popular designs, including "Love Me, Don't Eat Me" and "Fish Are Friends, Not Food!", they make the perfect stocking stuffer.

Something else to put on your Christmas list is our stylish "Vegetarian" hoodie. But don't tell your folks how cute it is. Tell them you need it so you don't catch a cold! Do that and it's guaranteed to be under your tree Christmas morning.

And how about helping your fellow chicken this Christmas? People can't get enough of our "I am Not a Nugget" merch. We have tees, messenger bags, buttons, and stickers featuring our adorable little guy. Make sure your favorite makes it on your wish list before we run out!

Finally, fashion doesn't have to equal murder. And you can help spread the word with our "Fur is Dead" Skelanimals fitted tee. It's sure to stop traffic wherever you go!

Don't worry! I didn't forget your folks. If you're looking for a great gift idea for them, I recommend our PETA reusable grocery totes. They're just three bucks! Not to mention, you'd be doing a great thing for Mother Earth.

Needless to say, whether you're asking Santa for these great gifts, this Christmas, or giving them to loved ones, you're letting our animal friends know how much you care. And they couldn't ask for a better gift than that.

Happy Holidays Everyone!!

-Tiffany

Nugget: Boy or Girl? August 25, 2008

Posted by Shannon Phillips at August 25, 2008 2:53 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 39 ) | TrackBack

Nugget has been popping up in just about every place imaginable. Remember when Nugget lost an e-mail about Warped Tour, leaving Lara and Marta to deal with it? Well, now I can say that I've officially had my own encounter with Nugget.

So imagine this scenario: You're in the bathroom at PETA's headquarters, and you think you're alone. You then emerge from your stall only to find Nugget in the women's bathroom attempting to squeeze her (his?!) large self into the stall next to you.

Your first thought is, "Wait, why is Nugget even attempting this?"
Your second thought is "Wait, is Nugget a girl?"
Your third thought is "Wait, is Nugget a boy?"

With these three thoughts going through my head simultaneously, it's really no wonder that I had such a confused look on my face.



So we can point Nugget to the appropriate bathroom in the future, what do you think? Is Nugget male or female?

<3,
shan

Free Stuff Friday: 'I Am Not A Nugget' Magnet! July 11, 2008

Posted by Ashleigh at July 11, 2008 9:36 AM | Permalink | Comments ( 176 ) | TrackBack

Everyone is obsessed with our new Woof! campaign lately (and the pig mascot). Can you blame them? So cute!

woof.gif


I'm going to be honest: I miss the Nugget chick. Don't get me wrong, I think the Woof! pig is absolutely adorable, and I truly believe that pigs and dogs deserve the same treatment (if you agree sign this petition), but I'm loyal to my first peta2 love.

I think chickens deserve some attention this summer! So this week we're giving away one of my personal favorites: our 'I Am Not a Nugget' magnet!

magnet.gif


This magnet is perfect for your car, locker, or refrigerator! Plus, it reminds people that chickens are not ours to eat. To be one of the three lucky winners, comment below with what kind of animal you think our next campaign should center around! I'm pulling for giraffes. They have been my favorite animal for a long time, and the poor dears are always stuck in zoos.

This contest ends July 25, 2008 and the winner will be chosen and notified by August 1, 2008.

You People Really Love Nugget April 2, 2008

Posted by Pulin Modi at April 2, 2008 2:54 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 16 ) | TrackBack

Ok, ok, ok! Some of you figured it out, but I fear I may have scarred many others of you for eternity. Yesterday was April Fool's Day, so the retirement of our dear Nugget mascot was all just a big hoax. (So was the blog about human hair fur coats). Yep, as much as evil animal abusing companies would love to see this superstar out of the battle, he's not going away. It was all a little joke! You really think we'd let that cute chick stop enlightening and inspiring people around the world into action? Heck no!

If you ever see peta2 promoting a mascot named Lily the Llama or Donny The Donkey (both respectable animals, of course), you'll probably also see me handing in my letter of resignation. Honestly, that's just bananas.

Anyway dudes and dudettes, back by popular demand (although he never really left)... here's Nugget! (applause)...

Long Live Nugget!

Win a Fancy "I Am Not a Nugget" Tank! January 23, 2008

Posted by Ashleigh at January 23, 2008 4:35 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 122 ) | TrackBack


Calling all you fashion-forward animal-loving ladies! We're giving away three of our fabulous "I Am Not a Nugget" tank tops!

nugget%20tank.jpg


Chickens make up more than 96% of all land animals raised for food, yet they are NOT protected under the Humane Slaughter Act—which means that many chickens have their throats slit while they are still conscious and some are scalded to death in defeathering tanks (Take a look at our new KFC investigation for more info.).

Well guess what? Chickens are not nuggets, and neither are you! So stand proud and declare "I Am Not a Nugget" with one of our sweet tank tops!

And while you're at it, send this letter to government officials asking them to protect chickens under the Humane Slaughter Act.

To win, comment below with your tank size (S, M, L) and why chickens are NOT nuggets.

The contest ends on February 6, 2008, and winners will be chosen and notified by February 13, 2008.

Welcome to the Punk Show! December 3, 2007

Posted by Nicole at December 3, 2007 12:21 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 17 ) | TrackBack

Here's a check-in from Paul (a.k.a. Paulie to me) who's out and about busting his ass getting sign-ups for our "I Am Not A Nugget" campaign. Tell us what's new on the road, Paulie...

The Agonist tour is over for us and we would like to thank them greatly for letting us come out on tour with them. We got over 1000 people to sign our petition to help animals in slaughterhouses.

paulie%201.jpg

On our way to San Francisco to table Winter Fresh Fest, we stopped by Salt Lake City to see MXPX play at the University of Utah. We also talked to hundreds of students and got them to sign our petition, too.

paulie%202.jpg

After the show we got the chance to talk to MXPX and they were more then happy to sign our petition to help out chickens. They even signed a copy of their new CD, Secret Weapon, for one of you luckies. So to win this CD, all you gotta do is leave a comment with your favorite animal and the first one to pick the same animal as me, wins the signed CD. Good luck!

paulie%203.jpg

I know you all are like, "we just want to see pictures of the amazing vegan food you ate." I wish I could add all the pictures, but I'll have to just tell you about a few of them. We ate some Buffalo wings, spicy chicken sandwiches, waffles, and last but not least, blueberry cheesecake. Yes, this was all vegan. Amazing right?

PS - I can't take a picture of myself without a completely ridiculous face.

Okay people—be sure to get your comments to us by December 17, and I'll notify the lucky winner by December 21.
