Glutton

SeattlePi.com: A guide to veg-friendly living in the Northwest
The book includes a list of famous vegetarians, such as Charles Darwin…

That’s the Charles Darwin, founder member of the Gluttons (a Cambridge University-based gentlemen’s club, dedicated to the consumption of unusual animals), who is known to have eaten (amongst all things wise and wonderful) a putrid owl, giant tortoises, a large, flightless bird previously unknown to science (since named Darwin’s rhea), guanacos, and—brace yourselves—a puma foetus.

That’s one hell of a strange vegetarian.

(Mind you, aren’t they all?)
