Pinky Cole in December 2018

• ... that Pinky Cole (pictured) decided to use sex as a theme for her restaurant Slutty Vegan as a way to attract customers? Source: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/01/dining/slutty-vegan-burger-atlanta-restaurant.html "“At the end of the day, it has nothing to do with sex,” said Pinky Cole, 31, who once sold jerk chicken in Harlem and produced a television show with Maury Povich before she started Slutty Vegan. “I know that sex sells, so I thought how I can positively manipulate this. We want you to have an orgasmic experience and the ultimate feeling of euphoria that comes after having a vegan burger.” Then, she said, “I can guide you to the truth.”"
  • ALT1: ... that the act of trying a burger at Slutty Vegan for the first time is called being "sluttified"? Source: https://www.savannahnow.com/story/entertainment/2022/01/18/slutty-vegan-coming-savannah-ga-pinky-cole-atlanta/6566321001/ "Details are limited and no date has been announced, but Savannah locals didn't hesitate to show their excitement and anticipation in the comments of being "sluttified," a term used by the restaurant staff for customers who try the burgers for the first time."
  • ALT2: ... that the names of burgers at Slutty Vegan include the "Menage a Trois" and the "One Night Stand"? Source: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/01/dining/slutty-vegan-burger-atlanta-restaurant.html "At what is not much more than a takeout counter in a rapidly gentrifying historic black neighborhood west of downtown Atlanta, people stand in line for two or three hours to buy soy burgers with names like the Sloppy Toppy and the Ménage à Trois, served with a side of crinkle-cut fries dusted in Old Bay seasoning. The One Night Stand, a mess of a burger on a soft Hawaiian-style bun, is the best seller."
  • Comment: I have a preference for ALT1 and ALT2. The main hook was to just put a picture there.

Overall: The picture is not in the bolded article. I'm leading towards ALT2, but the links to the burgers are MOS:EGG for the hook (and the article itself). Removing "names of" might make it slightly more intriguing, or consider "the menu at Slutty Vegan includes..." —Bagumba (talk) 10:07, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

Bagumba thanks for the feedback! I don't mind striking out the hook with the picture. Do you have any ideas for revised hooks? I don't want to make them too long. wizzito | say hello! 14:57, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

@Wizzito: I dont have any drastically different alternatives, other than tweaking ALT2 as I suggested. If you'd rather leave ALT2 as is, I could instead propose an ALT3 with the slight modifications and leave it for the poster to decide.—Bagumba (talk) 15:08, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

@Bagumba: I'll go for ALT1. wizzito | say hello! 15:11, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

• All things being equal—I only have a slight preference for a tweaked ALT2—deferring to nominator's preference for ALT1.—Bagumba (talk) 11:17, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

ALT1 to T:DYK/P3 without image
