ThE VEGETaRian GuiDE to Washington, D.C. and Surrounding Areas

Catering to the increasing demand for vegetarian options, more and more grocery stores and restaurants nationwide—from fast food to four-star—are offering animal-free fare. This is especially true in DC, which was recently named “Top Vegetarian City” by Living Social after a poll revealed Washingtonians are most likely to opt for meatless meals.

Why are growing numbers of people choosing vegetarian fare?

For better health. According to the American Dietetic Association, vegetarians are reported to have lower rates of heart disease, lower blood cholesterol levels, lower blood pressure, and lower rates of obesity than non-vegetarians.

For the earth. Animal agriculture is considered one of the leading causes of pollution and global warming, and according to a United Nations’ report, generates nearly one-fifth (18%) of all global human-induced greenhouse gas emissions

For the animals. Nine billion land animals are raised and killed each year for food in the U.S. With virtually no laws to protect them, birds, pigs, and cows on factory farms are routinely treated in ways that would result in legal prosecution if those same abuses were inflicted upon the cats and dogs with whom we share our homes. By choosing vegetarian foods, we can stand up for animals each time we sit down to eat.

Whatever the reason you’re exploring vegetarian eating, we hope you’ll find this edition of our Guide useful and your dining experiences delightful. It’s never been easier to savor vegetarian cuisine in the nation’s capital!

For the animals,

Erica Meier, Executive DirectorCompassion Over Killing

After giving birth, dairy cows are separated from their calves and hooked up to machines that take the milk intended for their young. Unwanted calves are often relegated to barren crates so small that they cannot even turn around. After four or five months of misery, they are killed and sold as veal. Nellie was rescued from a life in a veal crate by a kind person who wanted to save her. At two years old, Nellie is full of life, enjoys spending her time romping around in the grass fields, and will give a big cow lick to anyone who pets her.

Visit TryVeg.com to learn more—and visit Nellie at Popular spring animal sanctuary in Poolesville, Md. (AnimalSanctuary.org).

Moo-ve over dairy and beef. Meet Nellie.

Over 65 million turkeys are killed are killed each winter in the U.S., the vast majority of these intelligent birds spend their entire lives intensely confined inside massive sheds and will never set foot outside. Victor escaped this cruel life when he was found wandering down a sidewalk in Maryland on Thanksgiving Day. Spared from becoming part of a holiday meal, Victor now enjoys strutting his stuff in front of Gertrude, his turkey girlfriend, and wading in pools to cool off on hot summer days.

Eating is for the birds. Meet Victor.
