We all know the Gore Effect as it applies to the climate…

…you know: the Great Warm-monger visits, say, Miami, and it snows for the first time in 40 years. Well, Big Al has now converted to veganism, so don’t be surprised if we see plagues of insecticide-resistant locusts and nematodes, strains of ineradicable green bean rust, and epidemic tomato blight.

Oh, hold on a minute…

Hey, Al, your lunch is here!

Gore's recent decision to forgo animal products surfaced as an offhand reference in a Forbes magazine piece about Hampton Creek Foods, an upscale vegan product line carried in Whole Foods. Ryan Mac's article, which posted Saturday, chronicled how wealthy investors including Bill Gates, Tom Steyer and Vinod Khosla have poured money into the company, which hopes to take down the U.S. egg industry with offerings such as a plant-base mayonnaise.

"Newly turned vegan Al Gore is also circling," Mac writes.


That final sentence explains it all. There isn't a penny on the planet that Gore can't sniff out.
