Is a vegan Glenn Beck that shocking? Apparently. Conservative and controversial radio and TV host was booed recently by fans, and for a moment he may have thought Charlie Sheen had walked into the room. But no, it was not Charlie Sheen. It was his fans' reaction to his "big" reveal on his "Glenn Beck Live On Stage!" speaking tour in Houston, TX, according to Ecorazzi."What was the big news? He's eating vegan.

Typically celebrities who publicly discuss veganism and the vegan diet do so because they are making a statement against animal cruelty. He's doing it for health reasons. While the agitator and talk show host usually leaves a bad taste in people's mouths with his rants and raves, this time he did it with one word: vegan.

Since Beck's doing it for his health (and really, can you fault anyone even Glenn Beck for trying to find a diet that improves health?) he probably won't be avoiding other animal-derived foods like honey. He's probably not giving up leather shoes or his leather wallet anytime soon.

He's talking about foodies and how he is basically a vegan now. Blames it on George Soros. If you listen to the morning radio show, you know who that is.

The crowd booed at him for being a vegan for medical reasons, but cheered for shopping at Whole Foods?

No one else I know is hearing Glenn Beck talk about shitting but me right now. You all lose. His new diet has made his internal works "different."

Glenn Beck's poop is clear now, if what he just said is true.

The blog posted above is a fun read. Seems that Beck fans had to come in without their guns.

Beck in 2009.

On Tuesday, in more bizarre, nonsensical ranting that has become Glenn Beck's M.O., the Fox News anchor jumped on a story about the UK climate chief stating that not eating meat was better for the planet.

Beck proceeds to interpret this as though he'll somehow be personally forced to stop eating meat. He then becomes horrified about the "indoctrination" of school children in Baltimore, which has instituted a Meatless Monday lunch program. The "controversy" of serving vegetarian food in schools has also been described by Lou Dobbs as a "political storm in the making".
