Things To Be Happy About

Well, for one, it's pirate day at my grandniece's school.

And second, I don't hate PETA today. (We have a very, VERY tumultuous relationship.) I don't hate them because they got KFC Canada to change the way in which they raise and slaughters their chickens.

But OMG, they also got them to introduce a Vegan Chicken.

Seriously, it's like a dream come freakin' true. As you all know, I'm not someone who's a big meat eater but unfortunately the two things that keep me from becoming a vegetarian are bacon and KFC...and it's not the chicken I'm addicted to, it's the freaking secret coating.

So, now I get tofu covered in KFC? oh fuck off. Now, someone invent a GOOD veggie bacon and I'll be a very happy vegetarian.

I'm really happy about this. It's one of the things that makes my life easier because unless you go to a restaurant that caters to vegetarians, half the time your choice on the menu is salad, bread or olives .

As David Alexander of the Toronto Vegetarian Association says,

""KFC is sort of taking a bit of leadership on the issue," said Mr. Alexander, a vegetarian for two years. "We've moved beyond the era of the veggie burger, I think."

YES! Give us more choice!
