Vegans make better lovers! That’s the message from a PETA couple who will cuddle in a bed on a busy downtown street corner in Baltimore this Valentine’s Day. The lovebirds will pass out delicious vegan oat milk Lindt chocolates to passersby, offering a sweet reminder that eating vegan can mean the difference between sizzling and fizzling in the bedroom. Animal-derived products can clog the arteries to every organ—not just the heart.

Where:    257 Charles Plaza, Baltimore

When:    Wednesday, February 14, 12 noon

“What goes on in the kitchen has a lot to do with what happens—or doesn’t—in the bedroom,” says PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman. “By joining PETA and going vegan for Valentine’s Day, your body will thank you—and your partner will, too.”

Each person who goes vegan spares nearly 200 animals daily suffering and a terrifying death every year. In addition to reducing the risk of impotence, plant-powered eating slashes the risk of heart disease by a whopping 52%, according to studies published in the Journal of the American Heart Association.

PETA—whose motto reads, in part, that “animals are not ours to eat”—points out that Every Animal Is Someone and offers free Empathy Kits for people who need a lesson in kindness.
