NOT COOL, DUDE.
External link:
Sean S. directs us to cool-2b-real.com, a Web site that is brought to us by Cattlemen's Beef Board, National Cattlemen's Beef Association, Circle 1 Network (a company that "specializes in marketing to kids and tweens"), and KidsCom ("for kids ages 8 to 15").
You can go to the site, and "keep it real," by voting in a poll about "What type of beef do you most like to eat with your friends?" Get some "Nutrition-To-Go" by eating some chilli, pizza, tacos, or barbecued beef. But it's not just about eating, it's also about keeping fit-- which apparently consists largely of eating beef.
I'd say something here about ethics and marketing to kids, but, you know, what's the point?
