He did go vegan a few years ago and lost a heap of weight, but according to Wikipedia he has fallen off the wagon.

a vegetarian named Meatloaf! that'd be funny.

Apparently he is no longer vegetarian (unfortunately) he was on Gordon Ramsay's awful F Word cooking fish pie (according to TV magazines at the time). Would love to believe it isn't true but it appears to be.

I find this a little wildly ironic...meatloaf-a veghead...anyhow good for him!
