Actor James Cromwell went to great lengths while joining PETA's protest against Starbucks on Tuesday.

In a video shared by the animal rights organization, the Succession star, 82, superglued his hand to a counter in a New York City Starbucks to protest the coffee chain's "senseless" upcharge for Vegan milk.

"There's no reason for it except greed," Cromwell says in part in a video shared by PETA on Facebook, later reading a letter and asking, "Will you stop charging more for vegan milk? When will you stop raking in huge profits while customers, animals, and the environment suffer? When you will stop penalizing people for their ethnicities and morals? The senseless upcharge hurts animals."

After his message, Cromwell and other protesters begin to chant "Save the planet, save the cows. End the vegan upcharge now."

It is called the market yah useless TWOT!

Vegan milk doesn’t fall from the sky. Someone has to make it. That someone gets to charge what anyone is willing to pay.
If enough brainless boobs want to buy non-milk, yah pay what the producer charges + distribution, packaging, yada, yada.

Wait ‘til closing time. Call coppers to remove trespasser. Coppers yank his hand off countertop - skin. I couldn’t care less.

Vegan milk is an oxymoron.

Starbuck’s should just stop offering vegan “milk.” No upcharge for something they don’t sell. Problem solved.

This stuff is easy!

If I wasn’t a married man and it looked okay, I’m sure Vegan Breast would be a fine thing to partake in.

I’d leave him there, move the store and wall the old place shut.

I was always pissed at the ending of that movie.
"So we're all going to Fresno! Bye!" What the hell?

No, I didn't read the book.

I'll be all around in the dark. I'll be everywhere.

Now you're just talking about Whoopi Goldberg's big fat ass.
Or something similar.

Cromwell is either ignorant or a liar when he states “for the sake of the cows who are forcibly impregnated over and over”.
They need to be pregnant once every 1 to 2 years.

Haha. +1 for the hillbilly.

The obvious question is, what is Vegan Milk ??? = = = From the breast of a Vegan.

Seek one out. Partake.

I took your idea.   I followed the Facebook link and posted:

Has James Cromwell ever tried to milk a Vegan?   Probably No.   Of course the Vegan milk is going to cost more than milk from a cow.
