Steve-O's Gone Vegan! September 11, 2009

Here's a guest blog from our good friend Steve-O.

When I first became involved with PETA, it was on an "issue-by-issue" basis—they interviewed me in my old apartment about animal abuse in the circus as I sat on a leather sofa. At that time I was a meat-eater, and told them I believe that if anyone is going to wear the flesh or fur of an animal, they should at least have the decency to eat the meat of that animal. That comment led to my involvement in PETA's "I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" campaign. The following year I chose to stop eating meat (and stop wearing or purchasing anything made out of leather), however, citing reports that Jesus Christ fed lots of people with fish, I continued to eat fish. Most recently, for just over a month now, I've kept to a strictly vegan diet and I've not felt "hard-done-by" at all. I have been really enjoying making a project out of seeking out an extremely healthy diet of raw, organic, vegan foods—and I plan on continuing to do so.

Good for you, Steve-O! I haven't been vegan very long, but so far I feel like it's the best decision I've ever made.

That kicks. Nice to see Steve-O talk about his evolution of thought and how it's lead to this monumental (and thoroughly kickass) decision. Way to go, Steve-O!

That's awesome! I had no idea he went vegan.
I had no idea he actually believes in 'Jesus' either.
