Westland, Mich. -- Westland resident Dylan Seror may just win the national title of Cutest Vegan Kid—that is, if he can triumph over his four fellow male finalists in the contest sponsored by PETA Kids. The 3-year-old beat out scores of contestants from across the U.S. for a spot in the finals, and now it's up to visitors to PETAKids.com to help PETA Kids select the winners, who will be announced on February 27. Voting ends on February 22. The two winners (one male and one female) will each receive a PETA Kids prize pack and appear in a PETA Kids ad. Because of the fast-growing number of vegans nationwide, this is the first year that the contest has been open only to vegan children.
"Dylan is living proof that you're never too young to help make a difference for the billions of animals who are cruelly raised for food every year," says PETA Youth Marketing Manager Emily Rodriguez. "And because healthier vegan kids, such as Dylan, are generally happier kids, that makes them cuter, too."
Dylan always asks to read ingredient labels and then checks with his parents to make sure that the food he's about to eat is vegan, and he can't believe that other kids and adults eat things that come from animals. In his words, "That is gross!" If his parents say, "chicken nuggets," he corrects them so that they say, "vegan chicken nuggets," to make sure that everyone knows that they didn't come from chickens. Healthy and active, Dylan loves to play hockey and enjoys his own rock-climbing wall. Outside of sports, he also enjoys Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and superheroes.
PETA Kids will select winners based on several factors, including vote count. See the full contest details here.
