Rachel Leigh Cook recently talked to Coco Eco Magazine about being a vegetarian. Here’s what she had to say.

When asked how long she had been a vegetarian she said..

Let’s see….it’ll be almost sixteen years. I’ll be thirty in October and I guess I was 14,15 when I started that. I was thrilled to find out that being a vegetarian was such a good, green thing to do. I heard people who were regular meat eaters produce a ton of carbon emissions a year. And that really blew my mind. Being vegetarian is not for everybody. I’m not a pusher of it. I do partake in some leather goods but I don’t feel too horrible about it because the animal probably got eaten.

On if she would ever consider going vegan..

I think that seems like a lot of work. And I like cheese too much.
