Is it me or does Czech supermodel Petra Nemcova look more beautiful than ever lately? Well, I think I know why. I just came across this story about how she recently went vegan to make a statement and to save fish, so there ya go.

OK, I guess maybe her perfect genes could have a little something to do with it, but still . . . Seriously though, I can’t think of a better spokesperson for veganism than Petra. You go girl.

Would anyone other than a supermodel give up dairy to save the fish?

Well that's very good news!

We'll either fish till there ain't no more, or people will give fish up voluntarily if they become any more contaminated with mercury, dioxins, and throw some PCB's in there for good measure.


Canadian wildlife painter Robert Bateman was found to have 44 chemical (possible) carcinogens in his blood. And this is a guy who eats organic and lives in Supernatural (as B.C.'s tourist ads used to say) British Columbia.

How unfortunate that we have to witness her beautiful body wither away! Milk does a body good. Don't give it up Petra!

Milk makes you fat, gives you extra cellulite, and extra pimples!

Completely proven. Try it anytime.

Allen,

Why are we the only species that insists on drinking milk past the age of weaning? And why do we drink the milk of a different species? Surely we'd do better to stick with human breast milk (at least in our first few years of life)?

Either before I went veggie or since, I have never encountered a dish as mouth-watering as her. DAMN! I repeat: DAMN!

Welcome to the good guys' side, Petra.

Rojo, are you a ugly disgusting person that cannot read..bitter a tad.

And Allen Stick, soy milk does a body good!

to allen stick:
then you should take the milk from a hare krishna farm - where cows are never slaughtered!

i´m happy to hear that more and more people start thinking obout getting vegans i have always been a vegatarian and now a vegan, i have to say that i feel much better more healthier and younger. after watching "earthlings" i was so shocked about the pictures given in the documentation, i have throuwn all my leather boots and shoes away! here in europe its still weird to be a vegan but as i said i´m happy that people stark thinkng.

I'm guessing that if Allen Stick thinks Milk does a body good he also thinks that being fat is attractive. I enjoy being 5 foot 9 and 115 pounds, so I'll stick to soy milk and veggies.
