"Nobody's going to be eating any bird": Kevin Smith opts for a healthy lifestyle post heart attack, to celebrate Thanksgiving by going vegan
Kevin Smith has announced what seems to be inevitable. “This’ll be the first year that we’re breaking the chain with tradition... nobody’s going to be eating any bird," says the actor slash comedian as he embarks on a journey to celebrate his life post a critical health battle.
It all started with a Farm Sanctuary Compassionate Meals challenge, and today, heading into the holiday season, filmmaker Kevin Smith is grateful to be alive following a massive heart attack that inspired him to adopt a vegan lifestyle, which this year includes advocating alongside his daughter, actress Harley Quinn Smith, for the 46 million turkeys who will be slaughtered for Thanksgiving alone. The two signed on as spokespeople for Farm Sanctuary’s 33rd annual Adopt a Turkey Project, encouraging consumers to break the chain of old traditions, take the turkey off their plates, and sponsor a rescued turkey instead.
