> Oprah's a vegetarian? I thought she just didn't eat cows or something.
FP: I am not totally sure about Oprah, though I know she eats Morning Star products for breakfast. I am still going to resarch about Oprah. I did find a list of famous vegetarians in the process of my research.
> Anyway, you wouldn't believe how many stories there are of ranchers and USDA inspectors and truck drivers and etc who have gone vegetarian after being a part of the animal industry. A friend of mine who is a teacher where I used to work, her dad was a cattle truck driver for years and years and finally quit and went vegetarian after seeing horrible things...just horrible...
FP: That is interesting. If I was there, I know it won't take me years. Maybe, I need to spend a day there so I can speed up the process of getting my body to return totally vegetarian. It is getting there. The chicken have been unfulfilling lately.
> Oh, and this quote is fun:
> "I brainwashed youngsters into doing wrong. I want to say sorry to children everywhere for selling out to concerns who make millions by murdering animals." -Geoffrey Guiliano, the main Ronald McDonald actor in the 1980's who quit and publicly apologised
FP: That is a real man who had the courage to stand up for what he believes is right and apologize for doing what is wrong. I was wondering what happened to Ronald McDonald because he was an good actor and very creative with a magical quality. Well, that explains why I don't like him any more, it's not the same guy.
FP: I have to admit, at first, I thought you were talking about Dr. Spock before I saw the name. He changed from his original teachings too. I found him in my research about red meats before. It seems like everybody ignored research post. I linked it to one of my vegetarian responses. It is nice to know that people are stepping out and being honest for a change, especially for the sake of the Nation's children.
FP: I want to raise my children vegetarian like my sister did. :o)
