Human beings are so selfish, enslaving poor chickens and cows and then robbing them (respectively) of their eggs and milk—not to mention other odious by-products like feathers, leather, gizzards, and whatever it is they use in hot dogs. Gentle souls who wish to put a bird or bovine out of work might attend today’s lecture on Vegetarianism and Veganism, at which VSDC News editor Allison King discusses the nutritional, ethical, and environmental pluses of nibbling tofu. From 10 a.m.-noon at the Bethesda Food Co-op, 6500 Seven Locks Rd., Bethesda. FREE. (301) 320-2530. (Nathalie op de Beeck)
