“It’s just one letter difference,” Eisenberg said over audience laughter.

One letter, plus some information about factory farmed turkeys, adopting live turkeys and delicious plant-based alternatives.

All this is explained in the humorous segment.

—Ian Harding, in an interview with the Humane Society of the United States for the January/February issue of its All Animals magazine. The actor has volunteered at the HSUS affiliated The Fund for Animals Wildlife Center in the past, helping the facility release rehabilitated birds.

Seinfeld took the opportunity to joke about Stella’s cruelty-free ethics in her fashion collections, which includes not using leather or fur.

“I eat only leather and fur,” he said.
