Take the Veggie Challenge!

Take the Veggie Challenge

Toronto Vegetarian Association - veg.ca - now offers a year round vegetarian challenge, to help people go veg. This is a fun thing to do, and it's inspiring to read stories from people who have taken the veggie challenge. For instance:

"Once the meal was over, I informed them of my elaborate ruse: My goal with the challenge was not only to eat vegetarian for the week, but to secretly prepare and have my crew eat a healthy meal with me at the firehall and be none-the-wiser to the fact that it was veggie."

It's free to enter The Challenge, and you may unsubscribe at any time. You'll get an email every day for seven days, with meal suggestions, recipe links, nutrition information and tips. You'll be invited to fill out a quick survey before you begin and after the week is over. Every two months there's a random draw for some great prizes. There is also the option of telling veg.ca a story about your experience. Selected stories are posted on a regular basis and you'll have a chance to win another prize. Current prizes include a weekend retreat, an automatic soymilk maker, meals at restaurants, a fully catered feast, gift basket, books, and more! Some prizes are in TO, but many aren't.

Going to Toronto isn't required for the veggie challenge. But if you feel inspired to go there, visit TVA's 23rd annual vegetarian food fair, Sept. 7,8,9 2007, in Toronto, Canada. TO is a great city, especially in September, when the weather's perfect.

Here's the blurb: "...three colourful days of exciting and educational exhibits and events at Toronto's Harbourfront Centre. Admission is free. The largest event of its kind in North America, the Annual Vegetarian Food Fair gives you an unparalleled opportunity to enjoy a diverse cross-section of vegetarian cuisine. Discover new products and ideas from more than 100 exhibitors and enjoy a wide variety of presentations and cooking demos.
