This adorable video shows the moment a five-year-old boy realises that animals are turned into meat – and instantly turns vegetarian.
Little Zayn Oukaci can be seen chatting to his mum, Christine Bell, about his favourite food – green beans.
He then started listing his other favourite foods – chicken, bacon, and lamb.
But when he says ‘lamb is kebab’ his mother starts laughing, and Zayn gets upset when he realises lambs are turned into meat.
And ever since Zayn has refused to eat any meat his mum has served.
Christine, a stay-at-home mum from Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, said: “I was sitting with Zayn and we were just chatting and he started talking about green beans.
“He lives green beans and says they make him like the hulk and he thinks everyone should eat them.
“Then he was talking about meat and he was saying, ‘cow is beef’, ‘chicken is chicken’ and ‘lamb is kebab’.
“I just burst out laughing, but Zayn started to get upset.”
The video was filmed last Wednesday and ever since Zayn has refused to eat the meals his mother makes which contain meat.
“He got upset about lambs saying we shouldn’t eat them.
“One day I went to give him beef and he refused to eat it because it was cow.
“If I give him meat now he says ‘no’.
“I suppose he’s turning vegetarian.”
Christine lives in Milton Keynes with Zayn and his two other siblings, Harry Eastwood, 18, and Emelia Oukaci, 13.
