“Horrifying Vegetarians Since 1980” (The Post House)
A memorable ad for The Post House restaurant featured a sharp knife with the slogan "Horrifying Vegetarians Since 1980."

The slogan has been taken/stolen by another restaurant establishment in another city, and different horrifying dates have been assigned by diferent websites.

Some advertisements for New York City steakhouse Smith and Wollensky have used the tag line "Horrifying vegetarians since 1977."
