Mark Zuckerberg Only Eats Those He Kills
Facebook bazillionaire Mark Zuckerberg’s new “personal challenge” for this year is to eat meat only from animals he has killed himself.
“I think many people forget that a living being has to die for you to eat meat, so my goal revolves around not letting myself forget that and being thankful for what I have,” says Zuckerberg. “This year I’ve basically become a vegetarian since the only meat I’m eating is from animals I’ve killed myself. So far, this has been a good experience. I’m eating a lot healthier foods ….”
We respect the fact that Zuckerberg isn’t hiding his head in the sand and pretending that what he is putting in his mouth was not once a living, feeling animal. But we wonder how many people would be able to look into the eyes of a terrified animal and go through with it. The fear is there; the pain is real. Kinda makes you wonder if Zuckerberg is missing the empathy gene, huh?
PETA has sent Zuckerberg a basket full of delicious vegan goodies, along with a letter expressing the hope that he’ll make like his big-screen alter-ego, Jesse Eisenberg, and go vegetarian full-time.
