Mumbai – Young people across India who have always secretly hoped to be

mentioned in the same breath as Kareena Kapoor and cricketer S Sreesanth now

have their chance. Sreesanth and Kapoor are the reigning king and queen of

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India's Sexiest

Vegetarian Alive contest. Now, thanks to *petaDishoom*– PETA India's youth

division – the vegetarian or vegan boy and girl next door will have a chance

to compete for the title of *2009 Cutest Vegetarian Alive*.

 

 

 

Entrants in the 2009 Cutest Vegetarian Alive contest must be vegan or

vegetarian and from 18 to 25 years old. The entry round will end on 15

September, and petaDishoom staffers will choose 10 male and 10 female

finalists. Their photos and bios will be posted on*petaDishoom.com*, and

visitors to the website will vote for their favourite contestants. The

winners – who will each receive an exclusive T-shirt proclaiming their

Why are young people around the world leading the charge to go vegetarian?

For one thing, vegetarians are, on average, fitter and trimmer than

meat-eaters are, so the best thing that young people who want to look their

best for the next big summer concert can do is keep meat off their plates.

Also, the consumption of meat and other animal products has been

conclusively linked to heart disease, diabetes and several types of cancer.

Going vegetarian is also the kindest gift that you can give Mother Earth: A

recent UN study concluded that raising animals for food produces more

greenhouse-gas emissions than all the cars, trucks, planes, ships and trains

in world *combined*. And, of course, meat is murder on animals: Every

vegetarian saves the lives of approximately 100 animals each year.

 

" Vegetarians are generally slimmer and healthier than meat-eaters are, so

they are bound to be a lot cuter too " , says PETA India's Youth Marketing

Manager Simran Kodesia. " And, of course, nothing is more attractive than a

compassionate heart. "
