Ginnifer Goodwin tells W magazine in the June 2009 issue that she’s put out by the idea that her new found veganism - she cut out animal products last year, after educating herself about big farming practices - might make her look like just another actress masking anorexia with a righteous - sounding guise.

 

“People keep saying to me, ‘Ginny, you were such a cheeseburger person;that was, like, your thing,” she says over a large plate of spaghetti and wheat balls at a vegan friendly Greenwich Village hole in the wall.
