U of T voted most vegetarian-friendly university
Thursday, 13 December 2007

[image: copyright RICHARD LAUTENS/TORONTO STAR] Yesterday, the Toronto Star reported that University of Toronto has been selected as the most vegetarian-friendly place of higher education in Canada! They beat out nine other Canadian schools in Peta2's second annual contest. The number one in the U.S. is Northwestern University in Chicago.

Peta2 is the youth wing of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Recently, they stopped by U of T's New College residence dressed in pig suits to hand out the award, lunch and cake. Vegetarian and vegan meal options on campus include: Rosemary Grilled Vegetable Ragout, New Orleans-Style Blackened Tofu, brown rice pilaf, baba ghanouj, roast sweet potatoes, and more.

At a university with more than 63,000 undergrads, it can be a lot of work to meet the needs of the large vegetarian population. Peta2 reports that student group UTCARE (UofT Coalition for Animal Rights and the Environment) has been instrumental at improving food choices.
