No to Taco Bell!! Owned by Yum! Brands, parent co. of Kentucky Fried Cruelty

[Guest guest]

Please under no conditions should a vegan patronize Taco Bell. Please

see www.Kentuckyfriedcruelty.com. There is a PETA-sponsored boycott;

the profits from Taco Bell go the same company and contribute to the

torture of chickens.

 

Sincerely,

Bonnie Knight,
