Actor Kevin Bacon changed his name to Kevin Bean because of his love for pigs and other animals. He no longer eats goat or pig, opting for a plant-based diet and supporting the Beansday initiative, which encourages swapping meat for beans every Wednesday. By making this simple change in their diet, people can help reduce animal suffering, lower emissions, and improve their health.

Beans are not only packed with protein and fiber but also offer a range of health benefits, including reducing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. The campaign, spearheaded by Humane World for Animals, aims to tackle the root causes of animal suffering and promote a more sustainable and compassionate way of eating. Participants can join the initiative without changing their name and make a big difference by simply incorporating more beans into their diet on Beansday.
