“I felt vegetarianism was right even as a teenager, but I didn`t have the self-control or discipline to do anything about it until I was 18 and I moved out of my parents` house. I thought it just went right along with straight edge and controlling the scenses. Youth Of Today really liked to rock the boat. … When we were straight edge we were abused until the straight edge scene sprang up again. Then when we started talking about vegetrarianism about half the straight edge bands wrote us off losers. We were mockey and lost some of our fan base.”
