COK/FAWN Op-ed: “Celebrate Kindness to Animals with National (Veggie) Hot Dog Day”
By Erica Meier and Will McBride
As published in the Iowa Press-Citizen on July 18, 2007
National (Veggie) Hot Dog Day isn’t just a celebration of vegetarian food. It’s about recognizing that we can each make compassionate choices every time we sit down to eat. Leaving meat off our plates doesn’t mean skimping on flavor, of course. Rather, it simply means dining on the cruelty-free versions of our favorite foods, like veggie dogs.
Each of us can help end animal abuse and make the world a kinder place for us all, one meal at a time. Now that’s something worth celebrating.
Read the full op-ed.
2007 National (Veggie) Hot Dog Day a Huge Success!
With more than 30 events hosted in 17 states nationwide, COK’s second annual National (Veggie) Hot Dog Day was a tremendous success! These events as well as an op-ed published in the Iowa Press-Citizen (see above), reached thousands of people, informing them about the miseries endured by animals raised for food and the benefits of choosing not to eat animals.
Get updates and view photos of the events.
Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time to organize and participate in these events, and a special thanks to Lightlife Foods for donating hundreds of veggie hot dogs!
