I love a parade...

...but this one sounds incredibly stupid;
The veggies your mom implored you to eat are getting their own celebration in New York City: The Veggie Pride Parade.

Rain or shine, the parade is expected to wend its way through Manhattan's old meatpacking district on Sunday before ending at Washington Square Park.

Along the route, costumed bride and groom Penelo Pea Pod and Chris P. Carrot will exchange veggie vows and ask observers to "Give Peas a Chance" and "Go Vegetarian!"
I'm gonna go ahead and guess that something this lame probably drove people to eat a hell of a lot of steak, unless they're fans of really lame puns. Then again, that's assuming anybody showed up to watch.

By the way, click on the link to find out which super-awesome, not-at-all-ridiculous country inspired this event.

Aw, screw it. It was France.
