Go turkey-free to save lives & win prizes this holiday season
Let's talk turkey: Did you know that more than 300 million turkeys are slaughtered for meat every year? That's about one bird per American. They are hatched in incubators and never meet their mothers or live in nests, but are raised instead in huge windowless sheds called grow houses where they never see the sun. Factory farmers cut part of the birds' beaks and toes off, without anesthetic, and genetically breed them to grow so fast that often their legs actually break under their ballooning weight, and many young birds die from heart attacks because of the physical strain.
Hopefully, the cruelty forced on innocent birds is enough to turn you off of turkey flesh for good, but in case you need some extra incentive, this year IDA is offering some very appetizing prizes just for taking our Thanksliving Pledge!
Take the pledge and you could win a delicious Tofurky Vegetarian Feast for four that includes an organic soy Tofurky Roast, Cranberry Apple Potato Dumplings, Giblet and Mushroom Gravy, Wild Rice Stuffing, and Jurky Wishstix -- all of it 100% vegan, easy to prepare, and utterly delectable!
You could also take home a copy of One-Dish Vegetarian Meals and The Vegetarian Meat & Potatoes Cookbook by Robin Robertson that will help make your Thanksgiving truly fabulous. In One-Dish Vegetarian Meals, best-selling author Robertson offers more than 150 favorite recipes compiled from three of her classics (Rice & Spice, Pasta for All Seasons, and The Vegetarian Chili Cookbook) into one easy-to-use volume. With 275 healthy recipes for vegan burgers, steaks, stews, casseroles, and other hearty favorites, The Vegetarian Meat & Potatoes Cookbook is tailor-made to convince those "meat-and-potatoes people" in your life who say they could never go vegetarian!
To take the Thanksliving Pledge, just fill in your name and email address in the form on the right. If you're already planning a turkey-free thanksgiving, you can still help turkeys by inviting your friends and family to sign the pledge!
