What's up guys and gals? We've a solid week of touring here at peta2—check out what we've been up to!

Traveling through the mid-west with Tech N9ne has been a blast! There is a lot of support out here for people that care deeply about animals. Rob is working his magic and spreading the word about the chickens that are suffering for McDonald's.

One of the best things about being on tour with peta2—besides saving the lives of millions of animals—is definitely the food! We're lucky enough to hit up amazing vegan food all over the U.S. of A!



From a veggie and hummus wrap to a scrumptious Buddah Bowl packed with tasties, we've had it all! Each city has its own unique vibe, and we're definitely hitting it up! We always trust HappyCow.net with finding all the best veg food around!

West-ward we go!

Hey kids! It's Joey from the college crew to tell you about an exciting event that happened this past Tuesday night! Bruce Friedrich—the Vice President of Policy and Government Affairs at Peta—came to Penn State University to have an open forum with their students and facility. We had originally requested a debate between Friedrich and a member of PSU's Dairy and Agricultural Department but after months and months of us calling and sending emails, they never responded! During the two days before the event, we stormed the campus with our friend the chicken, leafleting and talking to people about the event.



Around 300 students showed up to the forum where Friedrich focused his time on why it is unethical to eat meat. His speech was followed up by a Q&A session where the students attempted to drill him. Friedrich of course schooled them! It was a very successful event, hosted by PSU's Vegetarian Society student animal rights group, with many students approaching us afterward inquiring on vegetarianism and how to do it on a college student budget. The easiest way of course is to pick up one of these babies!



I'm gonna jet guys! Thanks for reading and see ya next week ...

Renee and Joey
