Roger Moore may seem an unlikely Carnivore Hero, and indeed, my affection for him stems primarily from his stint as James Bond (another Carnivore Hero for another day). I'm also fond of Moore because he was born and raised in the neighborhood where we now live, and is charmingly proud of it. Moore, however, merits the title Carnivore Hero because of his affection for the gourmandic arts (i.e., eating a lot).
Moore begins an interview with the Sunday Times by noting "you can tell that I’m a pig because my memories are all about food, taste and smell." Although he's being a little disingenuous (his memories are also about rhesus monkeys and circumcision), the Carnivore Project is duty-bound to salute any former Bond and local boy who so proudly highlights his love of food.
You can read the rest of the interview here.
Also, he was inarguably the best Bond.

Well... that's one opinion. He's certainly the only former Bond to opine that Bond is a "lover and a giggler."
As far as I know, anyway. It's hard to imagine Timothy Dalton's Bond giggling, but who knows?
