"But as I was driving home, it occurred to me the things that were happening to these animals — to pigs, to cows — I was responsible for. And that until I stopped consuming these animals, saying no, I'm boycotting this, that it was going to go on forever," Silverstone added.
The A-lister has tried to spread the good word about how much the diet restriction has impacted her. "It changed my life. It was the best thing that ever happened to me," she noted in a separate interview. "Why are we giving our dogs all this beautiful treatment, but torturing and enslaving and murdering these creatures? To me, that was just hypocrisy."
