Mickey Madden

“Going vegan and making that transition is not as daunting as you might think. It can seem like this insurmountable hurtle. People eat more vegan food than they realize, you know? ?Cause, you know, I, like most people, I grew up eating meat and animal products without thinking about it, but it’s, you know, now it’s been almost 10 years and I don’t look back. It doesn’t even strike me as an option anymore, and that transition happened naturally, and I’m happy and healthy, and that could happen to anyone.”

The bad boys and girls must be ice skating in hell right now, because when Paula Deen eats tofu the place has definitely frozen over.

And amazingly, Paula didn’t wrap the piece of soy in bacon, fry it in lard and dip it in butter.
