Matthew McConaughey dives into meat market(ing)

Filed under: Food and Drink and tagged: ,

Mcconaugheysteak_lActor who refuses to enter the public realm with a covered chest: It’s what’s for dinner. Matthew McConaughey is the new spokesman for the National Cattleman’s Beef Association! Of course he is — just marvel at the similarities between the rugged terrain of his pecs and a sizzling steak. (That image was actually the alternate movie poster for 2002′s Reign of Fire.) Listen to McConaughey’s drawling radio spot and enjoy a video montage of beef (McConaughey and otherwise), over at Defamer.

A specialty burger can’t be too far off. Optional pickles would represent one of the actor’s tatterred tees, drifting away from the burger on a sea of ketchup. Ohhhh yes. Put the McConaughey on the dollar menu!

    I heard one of these spots the other day for the first time, and all I wanted to do was eat a big steak. Okay, actually, it made me want to smoke a big doobie, then eat a big steak.

    Shouldn’t this have been under 100% cheese? Hot cheese, but cheese nevertheless.

    How appropriate since ole Mattie generally looks disgustingly greasy anyway.

    Never has there been, nor will there ever be a finer piece of man meat than Matthew.

    By promoting meat he is promoting: 1) Destruction of our planet (the industry contributes huge amounts to greenhouse gases) 2) Unhealthy eating habits 3)Cruel treatment of farm animals. Shame on him!
