In an effort to encourage football fans to reduce their meat consumption on Super Bowl Sunday, Miami Dolphins vegetarian running back Ricky Williams held an hour-long meatless-chicken-wing taste test at his Florida restaurant, PROOF, on February 3. PROOF, which Williams co-owns with NFL alum Rudi Johnson, offers diners a number of vegetarian options including mushroom and vegetable risotto and a black-bean burger. Williams played for this year’s Super Bowl-bound Saints from 1999 to 2001 before moving to the Dolphins, and attributes his nearly 50-pound weight loss to the vegetarian diet he first adopted between teams.
