Happy International Hug a Vegetarian Day! Have you hugged all your friends yet?
In case you're a little hug-shy, I have compiled the top ten reasons you should hug your vegetarian friends today (and everyday)!
10. If it's true that you are what you eat then vegetarians are the only ones worth hugging—would you really want to hug rotting meat?
9. Gorgeous people like Davey Havok and Alyssa Milano are also meat-free.
8. Vegetarians get to wear the best clothes.
7. Because they're wearing a sign that says to!
6. Vegetarians don't support cruelty.
5. Vegetarians are super cute. (If you need proof, check out the peta2 staff.)
4. Vegetarians are really nice and they will hug you back (unless you are really creepy).
3. Vegetarians are doing their part to help the environment.
2. Vegetarians smell better than meat eaters! (I'm serious—check out this study.)
1. Vegetarians save more than 100 animals every year, just by not eating them!
Now that you're ready to go out and hug all the 20 million+ vegetarians, why don't you grab a "Hug a Vegetarian" shirt to wear while hugging? Better yet, why not enter to win one?

I like the blue and green one. The other one seems too busy.
Shirt size Small please. I adore the blue heart design + I'd love to hug a vegetarian because they speak up + stand up for animals everywhere…since you know, animals can't speak for themselves, the stand up part they can, but not the speak part…

My children love the one with the veggies. A medium is a suffucient size for us all to wear it. We love animals……………….
I love the green heart style it really catches the eye
I like the heart design shirt, women's size L or XL. My favorite reason to hug a vegetarian is that my 3yo son is also a vegetarian (like his Mama) and he's great to hug!
