Going cold turkey: Naked woman lies down on a plate of vegetables in Liverpool city centre as a bizarre protest against traditional Christmas dinners.

A woman stripped completely naked in Liverpool city centre and lay on a plate as part of a bizarre protest against Christmas turkeys. 

With a giant knife and fork placed either side of her, she lay with fake peas, carrots and sprouts on a plate emblazoned with the message ‘try to relate to who’s on your plate - go vegan.'

The protester went full-frontal, curled herself up into the shape of a traditional packaged whole turkey and poured streaks of gravy on herself for added realism.

PETA director Elisa Allen told the Liverpool Echo: 'PETA is encouraging people to extend the holiday spirit of peace and goodwill to all by leaving animals off their plates this Christmas.

'Thanks to the array of mock meats available, it’s easier than ever to enjoy a festive meal packed with all the flavour but none of the cruelty of meat

One commented: 'Hahah I doubt this will change anyone's mind. Xmas = turkey dinner mmmmm.'

Another added: 'Can't wait for my bacon in the morning, my turkey dinner, followed by Roast Beef on boxing day !!!mmmm. Enjoy your tofu.'
