Vegetarian Star

Carol Leifer recently went vegan and recorded a hilarious PSA for the diet and lifetsyle.

As a Jewish woman, the comedian and author used to eat Kosher meat, thinking it was okay because animals weren’t really harmed.

Today, she’s thankfully opened her eyes.

“Growing up, it was always, ‘If you buy kosher meat, they’re killed humanely,'” Carol told forward.com.

“But I’ve seen so many horrible videos. What we thought was humane 100 years ago is not humane anymore. The ways animals suffer, I just couldn’t be a part of it anymore.”

“I’m sorry I didn’t have this revelation earlier. I sleep better and more soundly because I’m not participating anymore.”

These days, Carol gets a good night’s sleep by enjoying  “Ficken,” otherwise known as fake chicken.

Finger Ficken Good has such a better punch than that crummy KFC line.

Read the entire story at forward.com, which mentions a headline we used months ago when Carol went vegan publicly.

Hey, Forward, we never said “weird” was a bad thing!

It’s all in the name of veg humor!

Last week we told you Carol Leifer had recorded a hilarious PSA for veganism in which she explained that she needed to be in an even more smaller minority group than being Jewish and lesbian-now she’s Jewish, lesbian, and vegan.

Watch the clip to see the author of When You Lie About Your Age, the Terrorists Win say she lost nothing but 20 pounds once she got rid of all the meat, eggs, and dairy from her diet.

Comedian Carol Leifer, author of When You Lie About Your Age, The Terrorists Win, recently became vegan.

She lost 20 pounds in the process and says if you go vegan, both your clothes and animals will thank you.

Leifer also took a moment to show her humorous side, saying “I recently became vegan because I felt that as a Jewish lesbian, I wasn’t part of a small enough minority. So now I’m a Jewish lesbian vegan.”

For awhile she had some company, as Jewish, lesbian comedian Dana Goldberg was at one point a vegan. Now, Goldberg continues to remain vegetarian.
