Are you a give-me-gourmet vegan? A curious carnivore? A battery-powered battler of the meat industry? Or a heart-on-your-sleeve hero for animals? Take our quiz and find out! |
 |
1. What’s in your lunchbox?
a) Homemade vegan “Sloppy Joes”
and vanilla soy milk.
b) PB&J.
c) What lunchbox? I asked the principal for
a hot vegan entrée at every meal—and got it.
d) A bologna sandwich ... again. |
 |
2. If you were a (nonhuman) animal, you’d
be:
a) A faithful cow or bull. One bull, Barnaby, was so smart that when his guardian died, he walked a mile to the cemetery and stood vigil at his guardian’s grave for days!
b) A pig. They dream, are smart, and sing to
the moon (the ones who aren’t locked in windowless factory
farms, that is).
c) A chicken. These birds have a great sense of humor: One chicken likes to sneak up on a cat, scare him, and then run away, cackling.
d) A tail-wagging dog—always ready to
be anybody’s friend. |
 |
3. You went (or are thinking about going) vegan because:
a) Someone told me that vegan kids have above-average IQs.
b) I looked at my kitty and realized that “I
wouldn’t eat her. So how could I eat other animals?”
c) I can’t be a meat-eating environmentalist!
d) I’m always picking off the pepperoni
and sausage anyway. |
 |
4. After school, you’re going to:
a) Try out a new vegan “chocolate cream
crunchies” recipe.
b) Watch Zoom and dunk chocolate Newman-O’s
in vanilla soy milk.
c) Hand out leaflets at the local KFC urging people to stay away until KFC treats birds better.
d) Go to 4-H. I’m learning to care for
rabbits and sheep. |
 |
5. Your mom has to page you at the grocery
store because you’re doing this:
a) Grabbing my canvas grocery totes from the
car. I care about the environment, which is why I’m vegan.
(A vegan diet saves rain forests that are being chopped down
for grazing cattle.)
b) Eenie-meenie-miney-mo-ing the Soy Delicious
nondairy “ice cream” flavors—Rocky Road, Swinging
Anna Banana, or gooey Turtle Tracks? Some help here, please!
c) Scribbling away on a comment card at the
customer service desk, “I adore the Tofu Pups,
but how ’bout some Silk soy yogurt?”
d) Searching for the Silk soy milk that the snowboarder girl drinks in that commercial I saw on TV. |
Now, tally up! Which letter did you circle the most times?
If you chose more a’s than any other letter, then
you may be: Le Végétarien Sophistiqué
You’re always hungry to learn more about the pos effects
a vegan diet has on your fellow animals, the planet, and your
body. You love a good challenge—usually in the form of
a great new exotic vegan recipe. Your vegan diet has broadened
your horizons—now you keep local ethnic eateries in business!
Were you busy circling b’s? Does this sound like
you? The Emo Vegetarian
Not eating animals is a no-brainer for you. Your heart tells
you that it’s not fair to make someone else suffer just
so that you can have a snack. For you, being vegan is a snap,
never a sacrifice. You may not realize it, but other kids at
school are taking notice of your compassionate ways and will
soon follow in your footsteps.
Circle lotsa c’s? Sound familiar? The “Don’t
Forget to Sleep!” Vegetarian
You’re well aware of how your choices and your voice make
a humongous difference for animals. You never leave the house
without an “Ask me why I’m vegan” button or
a stash of cards urging people, “Please, think before
you eat.” Animals are so lucky to have you, in all your
wonderful boldness, on their side.
Is your quiz dominated by d’s? Then this may describe
you: The Maybe-Not-for-Long Meat-Eater
Maybe there’s a question mark after every quarter-pounder
you eat. Perhaps you’re an animal lover who knows, deep
down inside, that you’d chuck your pork chops if only
you didn’t have mom and dad to deal with. Well, yay to
you for using your noggin to turn those ponderous hmmms into
satisfying mmmms! Visit PETAKids.com
