Joaquin Phoenix is the unfortunate star in a new ad from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals that highlights the suffering and struggle fish endure.

“My family and I were on a boat, catching fish,” Phoenix said of a fishing experience he had as a child.

“As one fish was caught, he was writhing, then he was thrown against the side of the boat. You couldn’t disguise what it was. This was what we did to animals to eat them.

“Look for things that are on special. Look for vegetables you can buy in bulk. Go to ethnic stores. Ethnic stores are a great source of fruits and vegetables.
