Perhaps not, but they are closely allied with and get a great deal of funding from PETA, who ARE an animal rights group; one that the government considers a terrorist organization because of their tactics.
PCRM is also a vegan group and so would be ethically opposed to using animal proteins in the diet.
It's a shame that they don't consider ethics in advertising as important as ethics in animal rights.
