Canadian Hockey Player Georges Laraque Announces Veganism, Goes To KFC To Celebrate



Okay so first, Georges Laraque is a Canadian hockey player. He currently plays for the the Montreal Canadiens in the National Hockey League. This beautiful man is of Haitian descent and is frequently involved in volunteering in his community.

Georges was a long-time vegetarian and recently announced that he has gone vegan ! Last month, he took to his blog and wrote ::

......I am pleased to announce that as of today I am officially a vegan. I am grateful for the hundreds of emails I received from vegetarians and vegans showing their support and sharing tips. As this is a all new for me, I invite you to continue sharing your experiences with me. A special thanks to the Montreal Vegetarian Association for their support.

Finally, I decided to invest time in supporting animal rights. I have already joined various animal rights organizations. I feel it is important to help the living creatures that don’t have a voice to defend themselves. I believe that we should all, especially public figures, raise awareness for this cause......


So, to celebrate his new life of being a vegan, he took a trip to his local Burger King KFC (Ooops. I had BK on the mind because I ate that for dinner) and ordered a chicken sandwich.......a vegan chicken sandwich ! (Although I really hope the chefs use separate grills and equipment. That would defeat the purpose of a vegan sandwich.)

Georges is pictured at the top of this post with the delicious Burger King KFC sandwich. He looks so hot !

And pictured below is the sandwich in question. It looks yummy ! I want to move back to Canada so I can try this.



have it your way

its not vegan

January 5, 2005 -- Vegparadise News Bureau


Burger King Caseinates in the Hen House

When Burger King introduced its BK Veggie Burger in 2002 (story below), the patty was vegan even though the bun and mayonnaise were not because they contained butter and eggs. Since that time, the fast food company has reformulated the patty that now contains both eggs and dairy. The current patty has soy as one of the ingrediens, while the original did not. The Sesame Seed Bun is relatively unchanged and devoid of any nutritional value.

The VIP tasters sampled the original BK Veggie Burger that was warmed slightly in the microwave to avoid contamination by the animal products cooked on the grill.

In information supplied by the company and printed below, the product is definitely not vegan because of egg whites and calcium caseinate (derived from milk).

Ingredients in BK VEGGIE® BURGER PATTY

Vegetables (Mushrooms, Water Chestnuts, Onions, Carrots, Green Bell Peppers, Red Bell Peppers, Black Olives), Textured Vegetable Protein (Soy Protein Concentrate, Wheat Gluten, Water for hydration), Egg Whites, Cooked Brown Rice (Water, Brown Rice), Rolled Oats, Corn Oil, Calcium Caseinate, Soy Sauce (Water, Soybeans, Salt, Wheat), Onion Powder, Corn Starch, Salt, Hydrolyzed Corn, Soy, and Wheat Protein, Autolyzed Yeast Extract, Natural Flavors from non-meat sources, Sugar, Soy Protein Isolate, Spices, Garlic Powder, Dextrose, Jalapeño Pepper Powder, Celery Extract. Contains Egg, Wheat, Soy.
Note: This is NOT a VEGAN product.
