Call me crazy, but couldn’t they have just made their own vegetarian cooking game instead of this, if in fact the existence of such a game is their ultimate goal?

How mother fucking ridiculous that they have no one better to pick on.

Because “let’s teach children how to stir-fry vegetables” just lacked the needed shock value.

Also, that game handles *horribly*.

HITLER HAD KILLED 6 MILLION JEWS AND THE WHOLE WORLD WAS IN SHOCK.
THE UNITED STATES, ON THE OTHER HAND, KILLS OVER 25 MILLION TURKEYS A YEAR AND NO ONE REALLY CARES.

“WAH I hate PETA imma gonna eat MOER MEATS now!”

PETA is an organization dedicated to spreading a message. Whether or not you agree with their message is your personal choice. I know it’s fun to hate on them… but, seriously, they have a right to stand for whatever. I may not agree with their cause, but I think this marketing campaign is pretty clever. Unless you’re some kind of communist dickwad, you should just be happy that *any cause* can elicit a strong reaction, good or bad. Otherwise our country will go down the shitter in no time.

if you watch the “bonus video” you’ll see how horribly treated turkeys are. its utterly the most horrible thing i have ever seen. it will make you think twice about the food you eat. and if it doesn’t, you’re a brainless ass.

Wow. I really didn’t expect this from 4color, both the writers and the readers. I don’t want to leave some huge comment about PETA and factory farms and modern civilization’s disconnection with food but I will say one thing.

Tofurky rules.

Yep, PETAs message is killing the animals it “adopts”.

It’s an intolerant, extremist organization half-full of whack jobs and zealots that mirror some of the worst Christian and Muslim crazies, yet no one seems to bat an eyelash.

Funny really.

PETA can come kiss my digested-meat-shitting ass. Anyone equating jews to turkeys is an obvious idiot. I don’t think a turkey is worth as much as a human. I’m sorry, but that’s just it.

Hey, I suggest something: save an animal, eat a vegan.

I don’t mind PETA’s radical take on eating meat. I don’t mind their odd and strange adverts. What I take offense at is how they have helped and supported the terrorizing of tofu.

Tofu is a wonderful thing to cook with, goes with anything, and allows you to really experiment with your cooking skills. These lot, helped promote the idea of “meat like tofu”, terrible tasting tofu, and tofu without wheatgerm flavour. All things that have ruined tofu as a viable food and cooking ingredient to millions of Americans.

For shame PETA, for shame! I also blame idiotic 60’s counter-culture LSD makes dirt taste good feel-good people, Ronald Regan, Ronald McDonald (a puppet of Mayor McCheese), Non-cookie eating Cookie Monster, and the inventer of tofukey. All monsters.

PETA is such a screwed up organization people with pets give them money they dont even approve of people having pets. if it was up to them they want animals to rule the world. one time, i think it was PETA, some terrorist used a donkey to suicide bomb some people and they sent a note about how it was wrong to blow up animals NOT a single mention for the people killed they try to force people to be like them. screw PETA

But their “evil mama” image is awesome.

PETA frankly does do a lot of outright horrible things. I might not support what the food industry does or the fur industry does, but I sure as hell don’t automatically support PETA. I do not truly believe they go hand in hand.

This parody game is kinda fun.

This game is all kinds of fucked up. I don’t agree with factory farming but when a population outgrows itself, it is the eventual outcome.

But hey, don’t let that stop you from having all the kids you’re entitled to have!

I don’t prepare meat for meals but if I’m out somewhere and someone has already cooked a meal with meat in it, I will eat it. Peta’s killing of animals it rescues is hypocritical, and I haven’t seen them suggest any alternatives to providing food for billions of people, so despite how pure their original intentions may be, their approach is no different than a crazy person standing on a box while yelling at others with a megaphone.

The game was kinda fun. Made me hungry though.

I think the funniest part though is when SLASH implied that Jews are worth about as much as turkeys.

Wow man. How racist can you be?

PETA. Kills. Animals.

Yeah. Google it.

I’m seeing a recipes button… a pledge to be vegan button… a donate button.. Darn it! can’t find the send angry letter to PETA button But really, PETA is full of nothing but psychos. At least there’s good news, perhaps Nintendo will sue them for using Cooking Mama to get donations.

Now, what is really your problem? Have you all been personally offended? That says more about yourselves than PETA I think.

PETA as an organization does indeed have its problems, I certainly agree, and it shines a dark light on many good animal rights movements. However, they at least react, think, debate and manage to reach out of their own human ego-sphere.

As far as I’m concerned, people can think and believe whatever they want, but when they start telling me what I should think and believe, then they’ve crossed a line. And the more obnoxious they are about it, the greater my desire to tell them to go f#@k themselves. Seriously PETA, show some dignity and lead by example. Don’t try to manipulate people into conforming to your ideals through the use of scummy tactics like making this intentionally shocking and offensive game.

they made the game, and guess what? it got the attention of all you game nerds.

objective complete!

I’m more of an ASPCA guy. They don’t make me go vegan, I don’t see them kill animals.

Also, I sent Majesco a letter asking them to pick up Brutal Legend to mend their image after Psychonauts.

Also, Rule 34 on Cooking Mama x Turkey.

Kritik, you do know that PETA kills 90% of the animals they save you know? The proof that they were killing animals though sadly didn’t happen until 2006 when the courts ruled that their records be made public, instead of behind closed doors like it had been.

They have a huge walk in freezer they even keep the bodies in. A walk in freezer they had put into their building so they didn’t have to dispose of the bodies outside of the building. Cause then everyone would know that all those animals they save are killed by them anyways.

A lot of these animals could be put into adoptive homes too where they could’ve been given better lives. Dogs and cats, horses, you name it. Also they make an annual income of roughly 30 million dollars a year as a company. A lot of money for a non-profit organization. All of which could be used to help those animals they instead kill. Animals they use as their poster child for campaigns to convince people to support them/become vegans/boy cott companies.

I’m sorry they may have a good ideal, save animals from cruelty, but they are a shady group of extremists who will do anything to get people to believe them and propaganda, despite being a part of very questionable ethic acts.

PETA and PETA2, are both groups that should be stopped. There are better groups out there doing what they can to help animals. PETA isn’t saving any animals by making Majesco make a Vegan Cooking Mama… they would just be making Majesco help them spread their propaganda and caving to their demand would just show how much power PETA has, which is actually kind of scary.

PETA are a bunch of douches. This game plays horribly, controls horribly, has basically no fail, so PETA = fail. I dont really care about those videos, yeah it’s sad but vegetables don’t fill me up. Gotta take care of number one. Sorry, lil peta people. I just cant be satisfied with goveggie solutions.

Peta are also hypocrites. killing the animals they save? psh. I thought they were all supposed to run free? Why not spend some of that money on something other than shitty video games and get some land and, you know, let them run free. Get a clue PETA, you will never change the world until you truly change yourselves.

Yeah, Traumatize those children PETA! That’s totally the way to go!

It’s much harder to clean and pluck a real turkey. but the real bird tastes better. What about the horrid inhumane way the vegans treat innocent asparagus and cauliflower? I know they don’t eat nuts as that would be cannibalism.

“Animals eat other animals. It’s just natural”
“Oh yeah?! Well we taught this lion to eat tofu!”
*cough*wheeze*

Raise your hand if this game changed your opinion about eating meat? I seriously doubt it did so this game is a failure in promoting its message.

Never understood the whole vegan or vegetarian thing.
Humans by nature are carnivores. They adapted to root and vegetable consumption.
I’d like you to put a PETA supporter and a cow on an island for 5 months. Delicious steak will be the outcome no doubt.

haha. after you beat the whole thing, the animal loving version of mama looks absolutely brainwashed.

FUCK PETA.

Actually, humans were originally omnivores, and in fact used to be able to digest plant cellulose with the appendix, but anyway…

This game was pretty dumb. I understand the message they were trying to convey, but honestly it’s a misguided one. I also don’t get how it’s “mean” to prepare an already-dead carcass. I’m sure the turkey doesn’t care about you cutting it’s throat into pieces after you’ve already removed its internal organs.

So PETA, seriously, chill out. A better message would be to encourage people to eat far less meat. Americans tend to consume way more than they need which lends the need for these factory farms. Also, stop being crazy, unwashed hippies. Be the clean, proactive hippies that actually get things done instead of just protest all the time.

Cooking Mama’s latest dish?

MURDER!

Mmmmmm, sweet delicious murder!

This game simultaneously fueled my hatred for Peta and their propaganda as well as my love for killing innocent turkeys. In all seriousness though, I have to say that I personally don’t approve of outright cruelty to animals, but meat tastes so damned good. If turkeys didn’t want to be eaten, they would stop being so delicious…..same with pigs(I love me some pork).

I have to say that the “mean mama” wallpaper is pretty freaking awesome though…

BTW, this whole thing reminded me of some other Peta propaganda. They made a nifty (and bloody) comic for kids. http://tinyurl.com/5wogn7

PETA is a joke and this ‘game’ is ridiculous. (Why are there blood and feathers in the eggs?)

Thanksgiving was over a month ago, odd timing for this.

The obvious difference between Jews and Turkeys? Jews aren’t delicious with stuffing, with cranberry sauce, with gravy, with…

AMANAPLAN: I guess it’s for the run-up ’till Christmas.

I personally don’t have a problem with most groups/organisation promoting their cause, but when it’s pressuring someone through fabricated guilt caused by what they eat by vastly over-dramatising the horrid cooking process? That’s not even rational. Especially with the record PETA has relating to animal cruelty.

Ah well. It’s a funny site, and I can’t see Majesco caring much about Vegan Mama.

Maverickk, don’t get me wrong here, I’m certainly no PETA fan. I do agree with you on their problems and I think there are many other groups or people, as you say, that do their things way better (Gary Francione for one). What I can’t stand, though, are mindless people throwing out their vegan or animal rights contempt without second thought. Living inside their own ego bubble without the ability of critical thinking. That’s just very narrow-minded and a lot worse than PETA will probably ever be.

PETA is so ridiculous, I wish people would stop giving them press. They don’t think highly of women and are hypocritical.

I would totally be up for a vegetarian version of the game. Peta is my lease favorite animal rights group, but that is what the game sort of looks like to people that don’t eat meat because of moral objections.

I can understand vegans saying that they themselves are not attracted to meat, but forcing that belief on others using irrational information is pretty despicable.

Yes, killing anything is usually a violent process. It’s also a natural process (see: animal kingdom). Demonizing it is… well, sheer ignorance.

This game is actually very well done, it actually looks better than the original! It also encourages you to think about what your eating, and when what your eating could well be factory farmed animal produce that’s a good thing.

I’m a vegan myself. After hearing messages from groups such as Viva! I learned how factory farming and the demand for cheap meat is damaging the environment and resource wasteful. This informed my decision to be a vegan. Certainly not by somebody forcing a belief system on me or ‘irrational information’, just statistics and facts.

Now Nintendo make a version of Cooking Navi with purely vegetable based dishes please. I know lots of people here in the UK that would buy it!

Peta are scum, targeting children with advertising like this to scare them into following their extreme beliefs.

I mean turkeys don’t bleed when you pluck them, and blood in eggs what the fuck Peta?
Maybe you should go and eat a turkey omelette and get your fucking facts straight.
