Troops craving chocolate in Afghanistan could soon be eating dairy-free treats bearing the image of Osama bin Laden.
A chocolatier and longtime People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals supporter is making the special vegan chocolates for the troops after reading about how difficult it was to get chocolate in Afghanistan (http://hamptonroads.com.nyud.net/2009/11/wanted-chocolate-lots-it-our-troops). The so-called “bin Laden bites” give the troops the chance to bite his head off, a news release from PETA said.
In addition to supporting the troops and protesting the Sept. 11 attacks, PETA said it also wanted to use the chocolates to protest bin Laden’s torture and killing of animals during and in the days following the World Trade Center attacks, when their guardians were killed, leaving the animals to die of dehydration, starvation or exposure to toxic fumes.
PETA will also sell the chocolates in the U.S. and use the proceeds for its free winter doghouse program and spay and neuter mobile clinics.
