Quantcast Vegetarian StarFor Martina Navratilova Tennis, Travel, And Veg Life Don’t Mix

The Championships - Wimbledon 2008 Day Thirteen

Martina Navratilova was slamming tennis balls at speeds most of us would only drive if we were taking NASCAR lessons before the days of Venus, Serena, and Maria Sharapova snapping pics of her dog Dolce.

She has supported animal rights and used to be completely vegetarian, then started eating fish because she found it hard to get protein while traveling so much.

Which leads to an interesting question: Is it really that hard to get good veg food away from home, if you don’t bring along a private chef? And are celebrities who claim to switch to a less than completely veg life because of health reasons really trying hard enough?

Sure, it’s hard to find vegetarian/vegan food on the road to purchase sometimes. Not to mention traveling in other countries.  But how many of you guys have packed a protein bar regularly or a Ziploc bag of nuts? It seems that if you’re worth millions, it should be the easiest thing in the world to eat vegetarian and vegan as you have the resources to get any type of meal you want-from healthy prepackaged varieties to a freshly catered full course meal via a personal chef.

Obviously an individual’s diet decision is ultimately a personal one, but is claiming it’s “too hard,” due to traveling or time constraints taking the “easy way” out?
