Calling attention the to the practice of plumping, injecting chicken meat with salt water to increase size, weight and cost, Foster Farms has launched Say No to Plumping, a website that features two chickens, Betsy and Martha, talking to each other about plumping as if it were a botox treatment.
Goodby Silverstein & Partners created the work. The site also includes plumping facts and figures, how to detect a plumper, links to health resources and an interactive “Plumpinator” calculator to help site people calculate how much money they waste on saltwater from plumped chicken each year.
Seriously. If we all just stepped back and took a look at the idiotically stupid, inane and unhealthy things we do as humans simply to make an extra buck or two, we’d actually laugh. Seriously. Injecting chickens with water to make them…what…taste more like water and less like chickens? Are we really that idiotic?
