Travis Barker put meat in his pants before telling his parents he was vegan
Travis Barker revealed he became a vegan at age thirteen after hiding meat in his pockets to avoid eating it under his father's strict rules. The musician and activist now maintains a plant-based diet for himself and his youngest child while encouraging his family to eat vegan meals.
Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker recently revealed that he became a vegan at the age of thirteen after discovering the origins of the meat he was eating. Facing a strict father who insisted he clear his plate before leaving the table, a young Barker resorted to hiding meat in his pockets for hours to avoid consumption. His mother eventually discovered the practice, questioning why he repeatedly concealed ham and chicken in his clothes. Once Barker fully understood where his food came from, he committed to a plant-based lifestyle, officially announcing his decision to his father during a Thanksgiving dinner.
Now fifty years old, Barker remains a staunch animal rights activist and maintains a vegan diet. While his wife Kourtney Kardashian and his older children are not strictly vegan, they frequently incorporate plant-based meals into their routines. Barker’s youngest child, two-year-old Rocky Thirteen, is also being raised on a vegan diet. The musician continues to promote plant-based living within his household, marking a significant transition from the hidden meals of his childhood to his current lifestyle.
