Uh-oh. Things could get ugly. Because you remember what happened last time a vegetarian was on Amazing Race. Does sheep butt ring a bell?
Mike White, writer, producer, and actor who’s writing credits include School of Rock and Nacho Libre has teamed up with his dad, Mel White, on this season’s Amazing Race.
You may have heard of his film dedicated to animal rights, Year of the Dog.
Mike was inspired to go vegan and embrace animal rights after befriending a cat he inherited after moving to a new home. Not realizing how attached to the cat he had become, Mike was so devastated when it passed, he had children coming up to comfort him in the animal hospital.
This guy is so veganized, he’s even worn two PETA T-shirts so far on the show.
Wishing Mike and dad best of luck, and hoping he doesn’t have to do lamb eating contest like Terence Gerchberg did last season. That would be so baa-baa-baaad. Okay, okay, bad joke.
