According to an article posted on syracuse.com, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) conducted a survey and has named Syracuse, NY as one of the most vegetarian and vegan friendly cities in North America. Out of all of the cities in the survey, Syracuse came in fifth. A PETA executive was quoted saying, "Syracuse residents should be proud that their hometown is on the cutting edge of health cuisine that is earth and animal friendly."
Other cities that ranked high on the list include: Olympia, WA, Burlington, VT, Washington D.C., Bloomington, IN, and Providence RI. The mayor and tourism bureau in each city ranked in the top 10 will get a certificate and letter of congrats.
