Whatever you think of PETA, there's no denying that the group knows how to create buzz. Last year, they stirred up controversy by trying to buy ad time during the Super Bowl for a commercial that had a woman trying to get hot and heavy with...vegetables. Even for $3M, the network wasn't willing to air the "Veggie Love" spot, but (as planned, no doubt) the ad went viral and PETA got the press it was after.

This year, they're trying to milk some additional mileage out of the "Veggie Love" ad by offering up outtakes from the commercial's casting.

What kind of outtakes could there possibly be?

If you guessed scantily-clad models innapropriately fondling vegetables, you're right on target. The "uncensored audition footage" even features a sleazy vinyl casting couch, and it's definitely NSFW. The group plans to release new video daily to keep the buzz going, but the joke is pretty one-note. But hey, if a mix of bikinis, eggplant, and broccoli is your thing, enjoy.

Watch the casting video here. (Warning: The footage is pretty graphic and may be offensive to some.)
