A Most Successful Meat Out Day Celebration
By Munich News Group (Originally in German)
 [Munich]
On March 21, Golden Year 6 (2009), our Association members from the Duisburg
Center traveled to the Munich Center to join them for the Meat Out Day
event. Together, they prepared all kinds of delicious vegan food, and
joined a gathering with Animal Peace, United4Animals, Buendnis Tier (Animal
Unity), and the vegan internet shop Radix to introduce vegetarian food
as a compassionate lifestyle and the most immediate and effective solution
for climate change.
Blessed with a beautiful day, the gathering took place in the
downtown Marienplatz area. Local residents as well as tourists attentively
watched the SOS DVD, read the flyers and savored the wonderful vegan food.
Almost all the people expressed their support for the vegetarian diet.
After a young couple read the flyer about the vegan diet, the lady encouragingly
said to the man, “Darling, we can make this (vegan diet) our goal
this year, right?” When the initiates sang the German version of
the “Be Veg, Go Green, and Save the Planet” song, many people
joined in and some children even danced on the stage with them.
After the event, all the participating organizations agreed
that this was the most successful Meat Out Day ever. The initiates felt
very inspired and happy to see that the vegan trend is quickly gaining
popularity, especially among the young people.
