If you don't want to eat turkey, don't eat turkey, eat something else and don't call it tofurkey, call it something else, and most of all if you don't eat a turkey you don't get a wishbone - plastic or otherwise. If you want to make a wish for crying out loud do it some other way.
This is nothing but a gimmick that exploits animals and the poor idiots that fall for it.
From peta prime:Wishbones have always been pretty bizarre. I mean, how exactly are your heartfelt wishes all supposed to come true by splitting a greasy bone that you pulled out of the dead animal lying on your table? And, after all, wouldn’t the turkey have wished not to be eaten?
Well, the folks over at Lucky Break Wishbone seem to realize that there are a lot of vegan wishes out there waiting to come true. Thus, they have created a wishbone that is most definitely vegan-friendly—the wishbones are completely synthetic.
So, now there is a cruelty-free option for all of you who still want to take part in this tradition. Just think—by using these wishbones, you can make all sorts of wishes about better treatment for animals.
You could even stick one in the middle of your Tofurky (just make sure no one tries to eat it!). Both the packaging and the wishbones themselves are recyclable and made in the USA.
Enter to Win!
We’re giving three “lucky” people the chance to win a pack of 10 of the wishbones. To win, post a comment below with a wish that you have for animals! (Don’t worry―the whole saying it out loud thing doesn’t really apply, since you are typing it.)
This contest ends on November 13, 2009, and the winners will be chosen and notified the same day. You should also be sure to read the contest terms and conditions and PETA’s privacy policy before you comment—you’re acknowledging that you have read and agreed to both by leaving a comment.
Good luck!

you know I was absolutely sitting and thinking about this same thing. More that, instead of strongly protesting and sticking to their guns by not even acknowledging animal "products" as an existing food source, the do their best to make "REPLACEMENTS". And they make sure that they look, smell and taste as close as they can possibly get to the real thing.
If their way is the right way, they should feel NO need at all to make their lifestyle acceptable by creating "knock off" synthetics.
As usual PeTA deals in subterfuge and disinformation!

PeTA,
Almost as bad as any terrorist's gang! They will not be satisfied until they make everyone follow their wacked out ideas!
