Quantcast Vegetarian StarCorey Feldman Served First Vegetarian Meal By Michael Jackson

Corey Feldman was introduced to vegetarianism by Michael Jackson. Literally.

In an interview with Las Vegas Weekly, the actor and musician revealed how the King of Pop served him his first vegetarian meal and how Feldman’s mother got him acquainted with the animal welfare side of things.

“At at early age, I became a vegetarian. There was a lot of resistance from family — “It will stunt your growth. It can’t be healthy.” But it started on The Goonies with Steven Spielberg. And with Michael Jackson. His chef cooked me my first-ever vegetarian meal. Michael Jackson presented it to me! Going vegetarian at such a young age, it was a stance for myself. “I’m doing it. I don’t believe in eating animals. You can survive in other ways.”

Feldman’s mother had plenty of rescue animals on their property while he was growing up, both traditional pets like cats and dogs and farm animals such as chickens, horses and pigs.

The actor is a regular contributor to animal causes through organizations like People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals, Farm Sanctuary, Last Chance For Animals and the Humane Society.
