If someone chooses to have a poor diet, then that is on them and no one else.
At any rate, this ad is pretty brutal. It would be one thing if they were advocating eating healthier, but they aren't. They are advocating that eating meat is wrong and are lying that a vegetarian diet is healthier. Had they ended this ridiculous ad by saying something like "Tonight, make it in your kitchen" rather than "make it vegetarian" then I could attempt to look past their alarmist views and consider their message. For some reason, the vegan/vegetarian groups are among the most smug, dishonest people around.

The issue you forget is...most people dont look at in store nutrition info, let alone log on to their site to check it out. Some people need to be hit with a blunt object to understand what is wrong with a product...you obviously dont.
