Photo of the Day: ‘Lettuce Ladies’ Help Congress Pig Out
Pigging out is so much better without the pig.
So five of PETA’s sexy Lettuce Ladies hosted the annual Congressional Veggie Dog Lunch and handed out Tofurky veggie dogs and dairy-free Tofutti Cuties ice cream sandwiches on Capitol Hill.
Legislators who opt for plant-based meals will be cutting the pork from more than just their wallets and waistlines.
Each person who goes vegan spares more than 100 animal lives every year; reduces the risk of heart disease, diabetes, obesity, cancer, and strokes; and slashes his or her carbon footprint—benefits that both sides of the aisle can agree on.
