Leanne Morgan

People think it's fake?

Why would I fake this?

People think your haters think it's fake.

People go, she's putting on, and I'm like, have you ever grown tobacco?

But anyway...

My people are meat people.

My mom and daddy had a meat processing plant and a farm, and that's how they put us through school.

And so there was always a lot of meat.

So you weren't a vegetarian growing up?

I was when they opened up that meat processing plant from sixth grade until I went to the University of Tennessee, because I could not take that smell.

And then I got away and started eating pizza.

Wow.

at the cafeteria because see i was a little rural kid we didn't have delivery or anything like that and so they were like let's deliver a pizza to our dorm room and i was like what so and then i started eating pepperoni and stuff and cheeseburgers because i got away from it but i was probably i was a vegetarian from you were from sixth grade on now were your parents like how dare you or were they like no honey no they love a good pinto bean

we also had a garden you know country people yeah so mama had a bunch of vegetables nobody cared yeah i'm gonna do whatever i wanted to my sister ate a bunch of steak and oreos and um red hots that's a great combo is she okay today she's okay okay just check the side of oreos it's crazy and red hots and red hots all of her school pictures her teeth wouldn't be ran but

But they would make over me and go, Leanne is, look at Leanne.

She eats pinto beans.

And I'd be like, they bragged on me about pinto beans.

And I was proud of that.

Isn't that crazy?

No, I liked a whole pinto.
