Linda Blair vegetarianLinda Blair (The Exorcist)
“The Alternet” Founder

“I have been a vegetarian for about 10 years. And it really was due to the reading that I did. And they explain so that you understand why it’s important for the planet’s survival along with compassion for animals. It certainly made it much easier for me. I lost weight really fast. My mother died from cancer so this is all very personal to me. And I just would like the planet to be a better place. And I think you’ll find a vegetarian diet to be really incredible these days…

What do I eat? I get up and I have soy, in the afternoon I have soy and then I have soy (laughs).It’s important to eat grains.If you want to have fake meat products, they have the best. Go into your health food store and ask them to help you shop and/or come to my site TheAlternet.com. I think we can help make your life a little better, so please come and join us.”

“In these trying days of the threat of meat to all of us, I think it’s good to make people aware that there are alternatives, healthy alternatives, healthy both for the individual and for the land on which we grow our food. The desecration of the land that takes place by creating meat is one of the worst problems…I’ve been more and more withdrawing from meat.”
