Los Angeles -- The vegan food revolution has taken hold in every corner of America, and nowhere is that trend more evident (and delicious!) than in Los Angeles' all-vegan food truck Seabirds. That's why 2011 Libby Award winner Seabirds is in the running to keep its crown in the category of Best Vegan Food Truck from peta2, PETA's youth division. Now in their seventh year, the 2012 Libby Awards ("Libby" for "liberation," as in animal liberation) include 22 categories.
"More and more young people are insisting that the music they listen to, the clothes they wear, and, especially, the food they eat reflect their strong feelings in favor of animal rights," says PETA Youth Marketing Manager Emily Rodriguez. "All our nominees are winners because they're meeting the demands of compassionate kids and helping animals at the same time."
Seabirds uses local and organic ingredients whenever possible. Among the food truck's many delights, peta2's favorites include the beer-battered avocado tacos and the organic crimson-gold kale salad. For dessert, you can't go wrong with organic, vegan, and gluten-free cupcakes. Seasonal specialties include Thanksgiving Jack Tacos with herb and mushroom marinated jackfruit and gluten-free cranberry salsa as well as the Creamy Oyster Mushroom Chowder with oyster mushrooms, organic potatoes, celery, carrots, and cashews.
Voting ends on December 17. Winners will be chosen by peta2 based on several factors, including vote count, and will be announced on December 19. See the full contest details here.
