Giving up meat today does not surprise anyone. An increasing number of progressive youth are becoming adherents of such a movement as vegetarianism. The reasons why people refuse to eat animal products lie in ethical aspects, and sometimes in the he alth of the body. It is believed that the rejection of meat can bring a person longevity, make his body more resilient, and also stronger. And, it is worth noting, there are more and more supporters of this point of view every year. And now they even have their own separate holiday, which is called Vegetarian Day.
It has been celebrated since 1977 in the USA, and since 1978 - all over the world. The official date when the world community celebrates World Vegetarian Day is October 1st. She was selected by the Vegetarian Society of North America. From this day begins the so-called "vegetarian awareness month". What is it?
Vegetarian Day begins a whole series ofevents aimed at developing this movement, drawing attention to its problems, as well as promoting the ideas of giving up meat among the world's population. They are held by enthusiasts around the world in the form of charity events, concerts with the participation of world stage stars. Among the latter, by the way, there are a lot of supporters of the ideas of vegetarianism. For example, persistent fans of such an attitude to the world are Paul McCartney, Madonna, Richard Gere, Brad Pitt, and from Russian celebrities - Valeria, Laima Vaikule, Tina Kandelaki. With their performances, they attract fans to the path of vegetarianism.
Vegetarian Day is also celebrated in Russia. Especially in large cities such as Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg. For example, in the "cultural capital" last year, enthusiasts held a free tasting of vegetarian dishes for everyone, in order to show that you can eat tasty, he althy and varied without meat. As part of the holiday, the organizers handed out printed materials to passers-by, which highlighted the features of vegetarian ethics and the advantages of switching to this trend. But a visitor to the social network VKontakte in 2012 staged a real flash mob on Vegetarian Day - on October 1, they massively installed on their avatars the image of Albert Einstein, known for his commitment to the ideals of this movement.
Events dedicated to the refusal to eat animal meat end on November 1, when representatives of the radical branch - veganism celebrate their holiday. This current requires from itssupporters also of the complete rejection of the use of animal products in everyday life. What to give a vegetarian in his "professional gala holiday"? The best present will, of course, be your decision to join the ranks of supporters of this lifestyle. But a prepared dish from the category of vegetarian food recipes will be a good surprise for a supporter of this humanistic concept of life.
