October 1st - World Vegetarian Day

October 1st is World Vegetarian Day. It started in 1977 to bring awareness of the benefits of living a vegetarian life style ranging from the treatment of animals to health importance.

Other than veggies I enjoy a good fish, which technically makes me a pescitarian. I'm not disturbed by bear rugs or mink coats but get ill at the taste of most meat (in the past it tasted like cardboard), though I'm a glutton for just about anything cheese-related.

Cheese-loving occasional-fish-eating mostly-vegetarian people unite!
