Chris Martin ditches vegetarian diet

Chris Martin has given up on his vegetarian diet following his split from wife Gwyneth Paltrow, who is a vegan.

Now Martin has resumed his meat-eating habits, but he still encourages their 10-year-old daughter, Apple, to stick to vegetarianism, reports contactmusic.com.

“I am not really vegetarian. I eat meat. I was vegetarian for a long time but, for various reasons, I changed. My daughter has been a vegetarian since she was born,” Martin told a radio channel.

He admits the diet change for him is a personal choice. “The honest answer why I changed is because I thought you can only eat something that you should be able to kill. I mean, could you kill a fish? I wouldn’t like it but I probably could eat the fish... or a giraffe,” he quipped.
