While media reports claimed that Sonam Kapoor had only recently converted to vegetarianism, Sonam says she has been a vegetarian for some time now — but has indeed made a few changes to her diet.
“I stopped eating meat 4-5 years ago. What has happened now is that I’ve stopped taking milk and milk products. I am lacto-sensitive. A lot of people are lacto-sensitive. But they don’t realise it.” As for vegetarianism, it is something which Sonam is not espousing.
“I am not saying it is good or not good to be a vegetarian. To each his or her own. In my own home my mother is a strict vegetarian, always has been. And I’ve taken after her, I guess. But my dad is not a vegetarian. But he only eats white meat. So I guess everyone has his or her own dietary rhythm to follow. We can’t make hard and fast rules about it.”
