A 35-year-old vegan animal carer has challenged Delia Smith and the entire Norwich Football Team to a race to prove who has more life.This follows a recent Norwich FC function Canary Director,cook Delia Smith said, "If the entire planet became vegan, we'd die. It's not practical.”
This was like a red rag to a bull to vegan Fiona Oakes, 35, from Tower Hill Stables Animal Sanctuary in Essex who is hoping to achieve a record time at The London Marathon in a few weeks.
“I think if Norwich FC lived on a vegan diet rather than all that meat, cream, lard, cheese and crème fraiche that Delia Smith recommends they probably wouldn’t be facing relegation this season.” Fiona taunts.
Fiona says “I’ll challenge any one of them to a race and show them what you can do with hard work and a vegan diet and prove just how wrong Delia Smith is to make silly comments like that.”
It’s the opposite from what she said- it’s not practical for the planet to NOT be vegan and it’s The Norwich team that will die if they try to keep up with me.”
Die of shame that is, to be beaten not only by a woman but a vegan woman at that!
