Georges Butaud (6 June 1868 – 26 February 1926) was a Belgian-born French individualist anarchist and veganism activist. He advocated naturist anarchism and founded early vegan restaurants in Paris and Nice.

Biography

Butaud was born on 6 June 1868 in Marchienne-au-Pont, Belgium, to French parents. [1] He founded a vegan colony with Sophie Zaïkowska in Bascon, near Château-Thierry. [2] Butaud and Zaïkowska eliminated all dairy products and sugar from their diet and consumed only plant products. [3] He founded Le Végétalien, a vegan journal. [2] The word végétalien was later termed vegan in English. [4]

Butaud with help from Émile Armand founded the La Vie Anarchiste journal. [5] In the 1920s, he contributed to the journal Le Néo-Naturien, which advocated a return to nature philosophy. [6]

Butaud wrote an article in 1922 defending Le végétalisme (veganism). In 1923, Butaud established a vegan restaurant Foyer Végétalien at Rue Mathis, Paris. [4] [7] He also established another restaurant at Nice, in 1924. One could sleep there and conferences were also hosted. [7]

Butaud firmly opposed hunting and linked human cruelty to animals to the capitalist economic system that exploited the consumers of animal products. [8] He advocated a fruit and vegetable diet and believed that humans were meant to be herbivores that share their food sources; thus vegans were bound to be good communists. [8]

Butaud died on 26 February 1926 in Ermont, France. [1]
