Vegetarian Star

Thanksgiving at the Eisenberg‘s may be a lot like yours.

The actor who told Conan he was mostly vegetarian recounted holidays where he celebrates what his family calls “Thanksliving.”

If that sounds a little hard to comprehend, just take Eisenberg’s advice to Conan.

“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.

Ben Stiller was a guest on Conan recently where he shared the fact he has embraced a vegan diet.

Giving up meat and dairy wasn’t the hardest part, though. The toughest obstacle to overcome was explaining his lifestyle choice to his parents.

“I had to tell my parents I was a vegan, I came out to them,” said Stiller. “They were a little bit confused at first, but now they’re supportive.”
