Casino Mogul Steve Wynn Distributes Vegan Documentary To Staff Members

Earlier this summer, Ecorazzi reported that famous casino owner Steve Wynn is rumored to have recently gone vegan. Whether or not the mogul gave up meat and dairy, we do know for a fact that he made it mandatory for all restaurants in his casinos to offer vegan selections. Now, more rumors have surfaced that Wynn has been passing out a must-watch vegan video to his entire staff.

According to LVRJ.com: “He [Wynn] had an 88-minute DVD distributed to all of his employees at Wynn Las Vegas and Encore. In addition to English, the DVDs were in Spanish, French, German and English for the deaf.”

Apparently, the DVD came with a note from Steve himself, saying, “To all of our friends and family, this video presentation offers each of us a chance to extend our life and to avoid the misery of the most common causes of death in our country. We need only to spend a few minutes of the day to experience the message, which is so powerfully presented.”

Wow! Steve Wynn is the coolest! Does anyone have the inside scoop about which video he distributed? Leave a comment and let us know!

I think it might be the DVD “Eating”. http://www.ravediet.com/whatsinfilm.htm
If you haven’t seen it, check it out. They do a great job showing how a vegan diet helps with your health, the planet & animals.

Yes, it was the Eating DVD 3rd Edition. Wonderful documentary on the plant based diet vs. animal based diet and how the latter contributes to disease and illness.

That’s cool that he did that, but I wish he’d done a better job of educating his staff about veganism BEFORE announcing to the public that his restaurants would serve vegan meals. Went to Bartolotta on Sept. 7 and it was expensive and lame. They aren’t ready for vegans! Sorry for the shameless plug but I wrote a blog post about my experience.

Yes, it was the Eating DVD, third edition. I just confirmed it with the producer, Mike Anderson, at http://www.RaveDiet.com and with an employee of Wynn Hotels. The DVD is fantastic and inexpensive. I highly recommend that you buy it for under $12 including shipping.

I hope more CEO’s take his lead. That’s a bold step.
