AR-News: (US-ca)PETA names S.J. man `Sexiest Vegetarian' in inaugural contest

[Animalconcerns]

San Jose native Zachary Hocker -- recently named ``Sexiest Vegetarian
Alive'' by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals -- hopes to use his
title as a platform to educate others about the social, political and
moral merits of a meat-free existence.

He's also hoping to score a few dates.

The baby-faced Yale University student won the title last week over
hundreds who entered the online contest sponsored by PETA.

``I don't think it's necessary in American society to eat meat anymore,''
said Hocker, 20, who hasn't touched a morsel of animal flesh in more than
a year. ``I thought this was a pretty humorous way to get the word out
about veganism and vegetarianism.''
