Krista Allen Gives Pros And Cons Of Eating Vegan
Written by Vegetarian Star on July 17th, 2012 in Actresses, Animal Issues, Food & Drink.
Krista Allen, known for her roles in the television series Days of Our Lives, Baywatch Hawaii, and What About Brian and films Liar Liar, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Anger Management, and The Final Destination is one vegan who will admit it ain’t always as pretty as eco-friendly roses.
During her interview with One Green Planet, Allen discussed what she liked and disliked about the lifestyle. You may be surprised to hear what she doesn’t like about it.
Dislikes:
Something that sends my def con 5 radar into sirens is the insidious preaching aspect that is associated with the word “VEGAN.” It’s tough, because who the heck wants to be judged for eating animals?
Likes:
What I love about being vegan is that it reflects who I am as a person and my outlook on the world. I also love that when people are curious, I get an opportunity to educate them with my own still-evolving education and personal experience on the subject of plant based eating. If it can flow on and on, then that’s cool with me
Her advice to help other vegans who agree with her pet peeve that it’s a pain in the butt to judge people?
“When speaking to someone about not eating so much meat and dairy, try using the words “Plant-based Diet” … it takes down the Vegan Police barrier and won’t seem like your beating them over the head with a PETA brochure!”
