Oprah and Her 378 Staffers Go Vegan.

Oprah and her 378 person staff have taken the vegan challenge and sworn off animal products for one week.

The show about the experience, along with interviews with authors Kathy Freston and Michael Pollan, airs February 1st and looks like it will be great!  The show will also includes a look behind the scenes at the factory farm industry.  Oprah herself claims that even if you eat meat, this is something you must see.

The teaser for the show makes me wish I had Tivo.  Sounds like Oprah and her staff all dropped some serious fat after their week of veganism.  My guess is that alot of them will stick to it and a lot of new vegans will be born.  Oprah can be very persuasive.

This is just one more sign that veganism is a really fun and accessible alternative to an unhealthy animal based diet.
