Bill Clinton's a vegan?

A notorious fan of McDonald's, former President Bill Clinton, in August, spoke out about his conversion to a plant-based, heart-healthy diet, saying that he believes the vegan regimen is helping to reverse the damage to his heart and blood vessels caused by cardiovascular disease. It's not the first time Clinton has changed his famously Krispy Kreme-oriented eating habits to improve his health. When the former president had a quadruple bypass in 2004, he lowered the cholesterol in his diet. But when doctors last year had to implant two stents to open one of the veins from that surgery, the president took matters further. Above, Clinton bites into a pastrami and rye sandwich in 2004.
