—-Lost actor Jorge Garcia, on the irony of how a symbol for a vegan product is an animal. Apparently, the maker of the product, Sweet and Sara, had a rabbit for a childhood pet named Skipper. The bunny logo serves as a symbol that no animals were harmed in the production (ingredients or byproducts) of the marshmallows.

Anthony Kiedis HBO TV Series Should Show His Vegan Journey

Red Hot Chili Pepper Anthony Kiedis is heading for the big screen.

The story of his life is set to be turned into an HBO TV series, taking place in L.A’s  rock & roll culture in the ’70s. There are hints that the title will be similar to his autobiography Scar Tissue and much of it will focus on his childhood growing up with his father and the path he took to illegal drugs.

“I think it will make for an interesting TV show,” Kiedis told Entertainment Weekly. “I’ve already shed my tears and yelled. The painful part is all behind me. Now it is fun. It is a project I get to do with my father later in his life — when he is ready to reflect.”

But wouldn’t it be fantastic if the movie also hit on Anthony’s vegan diet and lifestyle?

The singer went vegan after watching a video on factory farming. In addition, a doctor recommended his son follow a vegan diet due to health issues he was having.

As legendary as the Red Hot Chili Peppers are and with Kiedis’ popularity, showing segments of his vegan journey could have millions googling the word the week the movie’s released.

Alicia Silverstone believes plant based foods are the secret to getting a celeb body and shuns the notion of dieting.

“If you want to lose weight just focus on your health. You don’t have to have a diet mentality at all if you eat healthy, plant-based foods,” she said. 

“Honestly, you should add more kale and Swiss chard to your diet. Look at my skin. It works wonders. All you need to do is eat wholegrains or plant-based foods. If you eat this way, you simply can’t be fat.”
