7. He Was A Strict Vegetarian
He followed a strict vegetarian diet since his early days and in 1941, he self-identified as an orthodox vegetarian. Ignatius Phayrethe later described him as “A life-long vegetarian at table”. He hated meat as he was strictly against any kind of animal slaughtering. German magazine “Die Weisse Fahneduring” once published in Führer’s ruling days, “Do you know that your Führer is a vegetarian, and that he does not eat meat because of his general attitude toward life and his love for the world of animals? Do you know that your Führer is an exemplary friend of animals, and even as a chancellor, he is not separated from the animals he has kept for years?” He himself also said, as recorded in the “Hitler’s Table Talk” that, “One may regret living at a period when it’s impossible to form an idea of the shape the world of the future will assume. But there’s one thing I can predict to eaters of meat: the world of the future will be vegetarian.” Also See: 10 Most powerful machines of World War II (With Pictures)
