GAINESVILLE - A 25-year-old Gainesville man is a finalist in the search for the sexiest vegetarian in the country, sponsored by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA.

Woody Brown works at a mental health hospital helping teenagers who are recovering from addictions.

PETA says Brown convinced the hospital's cafeteria to stock veggie burgers "so that patients could enjoy healthy, tasty food." Brown is the lead singer of the band The Modern Society, which earned a nomination for "Best Band in Atlanta" at the 2005 Atlanta Music Guide Awards, according to the PETA Web site.

He is one of ten finalists, called Sultry Soy Boys, who are competing for the male title; ten Tofutti Cuties are in the running for the female title.
