Of
course one of the most famous ”vegetarians” was Adolf Hitler but we know this
not to be true.
“Author
Rynn Berry, a vegetarian and animal rights advocate, maintains that although
Hitler reduced the amount of meat in his diet, he never stopped eating meat
completely for any significant length of time. Berry argues that many
historians use the term 'vegetarian' incorrectly to describe someone who simply
reduced their meat consumption” – source www.wikipedia.org
So
we can breathe easy he really was ALL pure evil!
