Great competition...  

I read this information just now, thought of sharing with you all.
An animal rights group has nominated 40 U.S. colleges for a vegetarian cooking prize. The Northwestern University outside Chicago, is among the group, because here 'one out of five dishes served on campus is now vegetarian or vegan'.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals selected its list of finalists from online gossip on FaceBook and MySpace, from e-mailed comments sent in by students and by looking over campus menus. The nominees include the University of Montana and Boston University.
Northwestern's contract with its catering service, Sodexho, requires at least one vegetarian and one vegan choice at every meal. Vegetarian means no meat or fish, while vegan cooking bans animal products like eggs, milk and cheese.
A second-year undergraduate said, she often goes for vegetarian meals because she keeps kosher. At a lot of places, when you say you are vegetarian, they try to feed you eggplant. I donot like eggplant, she said. Here they will have veggie burgers, or they will replace normal meat with vegetarian options.
Should we be vegetarians or non veg? Please discuss.
