Mattel has stopped producing "SeaWorld Barbie" due to protests from various groups, including PETA, and is pulling the doll from store shelves. Here is a comment on the matter by a Yahoo News reader:
"Mattel has just released PETA Barbie (TM). She's got a doll body-mass-index of 30, a joyless expression, and comes with many accessories such as a pill bottle to overcome the protein deficiency she suffers from eating bean curd all day, and a razor blade to cut herself when she feels bad about bearing personal responsibility for the plight of the Norwegian Blue Parrot."
I had to laugh.
