Vegetarian 101
Vegetarian Stars Are Powered by Tofu!
Why have so many of today's famous faces taken the vegetarian plunge? Many, such as
Russell Simmons and Pamela Anderson, don't want to support the cruelty implicit in
producing meat, dairy products, and eggs. According to Russell, "Cruelty is cruelty,
whether it’s cruelty to children, to the elderly, to dogs and cats, or to chickens."
Pam agrees: "Chickens, pigs, and other animals … are interesting individuals
with personalities and intelligence. … What people need to understand is that
if they're eating animals, they are promoting cruelty to animals." Let's face it:
There's nothing glamorous about chewing on the corpse of a tortured animal.
Alicia Silverstone notes how much better vegetarian diets are for your health: "Since
I've gone vegetarian, my body has never felt better and my taste buds have been opened
up to a whole new world. It's one of the most rewarding choices I've ever made and I
invite you to join me in living a healthy, cruelty-free lifestyle." Indeed, studies
show that a vegetarian diet promotes a healthy heart—and that helps stars maintain
a youthful vigor and boundless stamina while on stage, in the studio, and on the field.
Sir Paul McCartney sums it all up: "If anyone wants to save the planet, all they have
to do is just stop eating meat. That's the single most important thing you could do.
It's staggering when you think about it. Vegetarianism takes care of so many things in
one shot: ecology, famine, cruelty."
Take a cue from your favorite star and go vegetarian today!
