Vegans Rule At NU

Vegans score big at Northwestern. But their taste buds are a bit suspect--mystery meat? Tribune:
Marsha Dawkins, executive chef at Allison Hall, one of Northwestern's six cafeterias, has learned how to massage seitan, a wheat gluten, to look like chicken nuggets or chicken strips for fajitas. "We cut it into thin strips and saute it to make it crispy," she said. "Some kids think it's meat."
Pumpkin pie will still be on the menu, though:
Berry, the sophomore eating pasta on Monday, said she does hear negative comments about the food. "A lot of people are complaining there are too many vegan options," she said. To that, Northwestern officials promise there will be a regular pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving as well, complete with eggs and milk.
A little balance in the diet. I thought eggs were nature's most nearly perfect food.

The truth, though, about PETA: PETA kills animals. More info at the Center for Consumer Freedom.

PETA, an unappetizing group.
