Guy Fieri Rebelled Against Parents’ Vegetarian, Macrobiotic Wishes
Written by Vegetarian Star on May 1st, 2009 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Not So Vegetarian.
If you’re looking for the next vegetarian Food Network cook, keep driving past Guy Fieri.
This Guy (pun intended) is so repulsed by that diet that he started fending for himself at a very young age to avoid his parents’ cooking.
From People.com:
“My parents were into macrobiotic cooking—vegetarian, nondairy, whole grains, no red meat. I started cooking when I was 10 because I just couldn’t eat that stuff.”
Guy’s story brings up an important area of discussion many have over the question of forcing a vegetarian diet on their children.
Should veg parents make their kids follow the lifestyle too? At least until they’re old enough to make their own decisions about their food (or old enough to earn money to buy their own groceries?)?
