It can be hard to find love when you’re vegan. Do you date people who eat gross meat and walk around in gross leather? Or do you date exclusively veg and cut your dating pool down significantly? If the latter sounds better, Veg Speed Date is here to help you find that veg needle in a haystack. It’s speed dating just for vegans and vegetarians and it’s coming to over 20 cities nationwide just in time for Valentine’s day!
Veg Speed Date has some great stuff going for it. First of all, $1 from every ticket goes to the Humane League (after all, it wouldn’t be a veg event if it didn’t help our anipals!). Second, there are LGBTQ events! Toronto is the pilot event for LGBTQ and then in March there will be LGBTQ events in select cities starting with Berkeley and NYC.
So I spoke with Veg Speed Date about uh um well like what makes it not awkward…? Apparently they have a magic formula that alleviates awkwardness. When people get there, they don’t have to just come in and sit down awkwardly, first theres about 20 mins of hanging and mingling. Then they give you instructions, then you sit down and start speed dating. You get 5 mins to talk to each person. There’s also a break halfway through and then at the end you get more time for hanging and mingling. Plus when you get your ticket they prep you a bit. Ok, ok, this sounds like something even I could do! Probably after a shot!
Go to the site to find events and buy tickets. They have an early bird special right now where you can get a ticket for $35–but it ends Jan 31st!
Ok good luck! Remember you’re wonderful and I wish you love!
