Austin, Texas – “Thai Monkeys By no means Have a Satisfied Birthday, Jason.” That’s the message that shall be delivered on a birthday cake, whole with an image of a screaming, chained monkey, through an 8-foot crying “monkey” to Complete Meals CEO Jason Buechel at his lavish high-rise apartment on Sunday. The birthday blitz will proceed as PETA plasters Buechel’s community with “Sought after” posters calling him out for promoting coconut milk from Thailand, the place the coconut business is pushed through the compelled exertions of endangered pig-tailed macaques, as discovered through a couple of PETA Asia investigations.
The place: 301 West Ave., Austin
When: Sunday, March 24, 12 midday
Left: Complete Meals CEO Jason Buechel’s birthday card from PETA.
Proper: “Sought after” posters shall be plastered close to Buechel’s house, Complete Meals’ headquarters, and the corporate’s flagship retailer.
“As Buechel celebrates every other birthday lounging in luxurious, monkeys in Thai jungles are being abducted, chained up, whipped, and used as coconut-picking machines,” says PETA Government Vice President Tracy Reiman. “Getting monkey abuse out of Complete Meals’ retail outlets could be a work of cake. All Buechel has to do is pay attention PETA’s pleas and promote coconut milk from India, the Philippines, and different nations the place monkey exertions isn’t used.”
More than one firms that produce coconut milk bought at Complete Meals have been named through business employees in a PETA Asia investigation as having used coconuts got through monkey exertions. HelloFresh, Red Carrot, and Efficiency Meals Team stopped sourcing coconut milk from Thailand following the exposé—however Complete Meals continues to promote Thai coconut milk.
PETA—whose motto reads, partially, that “animals aren’t ours to abuse by any means”—issues out that Each Animal Is Anyone and provides unfastened Empathy Kits for individuals who desire a lesson in kindness.
