Obama Quits Smoking–Vegans It’s Your Turn

President Obama has been smoke-free for an entire year!
The First Lady made the announcement to reporters during lunch in the Old Family Dining Room at the White House while discussing her Let’s Move! initiative to get America healthier.
Michelle said it was the president’s desire to be able to look his daughters in the eye and say he didn’t smoke that motivated him.
Vegetarians and vegans who still huff and puff have another reason to kick the habit. Some cigarette filters contain pig’s blood and that definitely ain’t veg!
Dutch researchers discovered that pig hemoglobin is often found in the filters, but not listed specifically as an ingredient. Instead, terms such as “processing aids” are used.
