I’m calling bullshit on PETA here. The models handing out veggie dogs are clearly NOT wearing “nothing but strategically placed lettuce leaves.” If it’s not clear from this photo, you can definitely see from this one. Green lace is not lettuce, and a veggie dog is not food.
But, you know, I’m sure the faux lettuce are made from cotton and nylon, no animal fibers involved. Because we certainly wouldn’t want to exploit any animals while parading half-nekkid Playmates around DC.

@dalebanks should have asked where the faux lettuce sets are sold!
The tops were green. Close enough! Plus, lettuce is out of season. Their bras would’ve wilted for sure.
“Green lace is not lettuce, and a veggie dog is not food.”
This may be one of the single funniest things I’ve read on this site. Ever.
Lettuce is never out of season! lol
The lettuce is actually somewhat moot – it is perfectly legal for a woman to go topless in Th’ District.
I was there. Those veggie dogs were really good!
FYI. The chick in the “lettuce” bra is Brody Jenner’s (hot dude from The Hills) girlfriend. She’s also the Playboy 2008 or 2009 Playmate of the Year.
To be fair, I’m not sure that regular hotdogs count as food either.
PETA also protests outside of the McDonalds – sexist, racist, and classist. Way to go PETA! It’s a trifecta
